Again, exactly why you pay DK.
Pete ball = run the ball effectively to open up play action, of which would take advantage of DK's speed getting behind the defense..
I don't get how so many fans distill Pete's offensive philosophy down into some dumb ball. It's balance, with an emphasis on being productive in the run game, because Pete knows that's how to successfully move the ball.
Doesn't mean you don't need talented WR's. You most certainly do.
That's not why you pay a Wr 25+ mil though. If you recall we did that while paying our WR less with Kearse, Moore, Lockette, and Baldwin. If you can do it with those guys you don't need a 25+ mil WR.
FYi PC knows how you move the ball in the 70s not how you win SB now.
LAR
Pass 64%
TB
65% pass
I can go on
That said You don't pay a WR 25 Mil to run the PC offense. You spend 75% on defense, and most of the 20% you have on offense on RB and run blocking oline. Any NFL-caliber Wr should be able to get open if everyone is playing the run in PC offense. That's why we had guys like Kearse, Baldwin, Moore. etc. I mean either we go all in for the PC ball or we get a new HC since we traded our Elite QB.
For me, this is a simple thing since PC said we are not rebuilding anything less than a Winning season is a failure. While I will be rooting for the Hawks as always I don't expect much. And wasting 25mil on a Wr for this offense is just plain stupid. Not to mention the hypocrisy of paying a Wr top money.
