Dont know if this was already covered but Kubiak and Shanahan, What have we learned? We have to cater to the strengths of this offense, which is the passing game! Employ the strategy of the 3rd and 4th quarter into the first two quarters. At this time I would be happy with a 70/30 pass run ratio. And employ more screens and draws, not when it is 3rd and 15!!!!. Steve Slaton would be very effective in these until we can get the middle of the oline rebuilt.

That would be copying the Philly offense. Hmmmmmmm, works for them!

We tried passing much more then we did running throughout the last game. I think it was 21 running plays and 50 passes.

At the half, I beleive we were pretty close on the run/pass #'s. During the 2nd half, we totally went on a passing bender.

Yep we started passing in the second half and did well. We tried to pound it in the first half and got dominated. I bet all but 5-7 of those runs came in the first half and 3 of those runs came in the last minute.

What about even more pass plays with two wideouts, two guys in the slot and one back - you could call it the Run and Shoot...
