Been discussed to death around here what the issue with the offense is . Plain and simple, the offense has lost its identity ever since marshawn left. And its not just because of marshawn, its because his running style brought an offensive identity to the team. Releasing carpenter,okung, and and trading unger also contributed to this.
This team is meant to play one way, shut you down with defense and hit you in the mouth. And do the same on offense, line up and run the ball down the defenses throat until they get tired and chew the clock out. Thats how this team is built, and thats why they look so disfunctional right now and have at periods the past 2 years, its because they have gone away from what brought them to the top in the first place. It was beating down teams with the run game and doing the same on defense.
Trade graham and lane. Get some solid linemen if they can or blocking tight ends, and start running the ball and using play action , the fancy jimmy graham addition was never needed should have just kept unger and paid guys like carpenter and okung.
