I agree about our offense. We just don't play to have the type of offense that destroys opponents and takes their will to finish the game. That too often leaves us to allowing other teams to stay in the game, instead of believe they can come back on us.
It is what right now is holding this team back from being truly a dynasty IMO.
Really...?
Skins' D was ranked 12 against pass, 7 against run, and 9 overall. That's not exactly bad.
Were not running Lynch enough...were not throwing deep enough...were not "destroying their will enough"...
How about we do what it takes to win a football game where the other NFL football team 1.) does not exactly roll over and die, 2) has 90+ thousand fans at home, 3) is on the East cost where statistically west coast teams have a poor record league-wide, 4.) gets favorable calls all night, 5.)blitzes like crazy (and effectively) all night long in an attempt to take advantage of or perceived/real o-line issues...etc.?
Packing the box and heavy blitzing will continue. And yes, there will be downfield opportunities as there were tonight. Penalties and drops killed tonight. Otherwise the Hawks' O was the type of offense that destroys opponents and takes their will to finish the game. Only issue I saw was stupid penalties and inconsistent O-line play.
