[QUOTE="danny daniel, post: 669862, member: 1376"] We had no short yardage (big people) package and none for the red zone. Our poor performance in this area was on the OC. We failed to use our best personnel Oliver as one of the runners in this situation. We routinely called a pass on first down (70% incompletes or thereabouts) and with 2nd and 10 we ran in the A-gap usually for a yard leaving us in third and long which we were then unsuccessful 70% or so. This was predictable and repeated over and over during the season. We ran multiple wide receiver screens (and I believe only one or two to our best chance...Oliver) with Brown as our primary blocker (he was not effective and in fact was injured trying to block on this play at least 3 times). We needed a flex player (like Cottrell or a 200 lb WR) in the game to block on this play and a runner like Sanders or Oliver as the receiver. We failed to run reverses or reverse passes anytime. With our poor passing (QB and Oline issue) we should have run until stopped much more often. We too often wasted downs early with our poor passing which then took away our chance to move the chains by running. We needed more counters, reverses, and options in our run calling. We were too predictable and conservative. Our most successful run game came when Mason just ran over people. On third down we often passed short of the line to gain for a first down. Our QB also often ran out of bounds just short of the line to gain. The OC needed to correct this. This is only my opinion based on watching all the plays in all the games. Our OC seems to set an offense formation and then draw on his vast experience to locate the weaknesses in the D alignment. He then calls a play (often the D changes after the call so he loses his "advantage"). His play calling does not appear to be based on the field position, down and distance, or sequence of playcalling to set up something. It certainly does not lead to moving the chains consistently. It just seems to be his best judgement for the formation "mismatch" that he sees. It just drives me crazy. Maybe an NFL quality passing combo with an NFL Oline would make his playcalling look better. It certainly did not work with our current roster. [/QUOTE]
