He needs to get in space with the o-line sealing off some edges for him occasionally. It's not all on him obviously, but there are times he goes along the line when he needs to put his head down and get those 2-3 yeards instead of no gain. Little bit of an old school approach though, easy for us...
I can see the huge difference on offense between Pete-ball and Waldron doing what he wants/can. Also, Lucas and Cross being back is making the QB's protection night and day.
To be fair, our o-line has been doing it's job decently all year. I know there's injuries and such, but this game is a coacktail of the inability (or unwillingness) to adjust to what's happening. I understand having your philosphy and wanting to impose yourself, but if you're getting...

"I think we needed this to mature more."

Is it just me or are definitive updates for injuries under Carroll usually slow walked a little bit? I feel it's part of his cautious nature to not jump to one conclusion or another.

I feel like they may not be incorporating certain packages/calls because Adams isn't active and healthy. I don't think they are "saving" it for him, but I beleive Julian Love just has a different skillset than Adams and asking Love to do what Adams does will more than likely get you in trouble...
For the record, I've heard Olsen say that Carroll was definitely the most organized and energetic coach he's ever played for and had high marks for the franchise for the single year he was here. His body breaking down definitely didn't help his stat line. But that being said, that last opinion...
