1. Going heavy.
This doesn't fit the strength of the roster, but it fits the game situation. The line isn't working well enough together to facilitate a running game or give time to execute a spread passing game. No ability to stretch the field.
Shifting to living in 12 personnel as base, perhaps going singleback and under center to stimulate the rushing game and leaning on any WCO concepts they may have in the playbook (if the timing on those concepts is developed by now) would be advisable to subsidize a porous line and belay the siege.
2. Going quicker.
Mac says he wants to run to relieve the pressure, but going quick could go hand-in-hand. Mixing the run with a quick passing attack will make it a little harder for Denver's line to tee off on the line.
3. Start the half with your highest success rate plays.
Sounds simple, but OCs will keep bullets in the chamber. Starting this half with a couple small successes will settle them down. If you've got any easy money quick 4 yard hits, unload 'em.
4. Sit Laken for whichever of Bradford/Haynes is more comfortable at LG.
Laken is the weak link so far. Continuity is really important to build right now, but if you want to try stopping the bleeding with personnel adjustments on the line - that's your first option.
