[QUOTE="Jerry the Jacket, post: 963126, member: 65"] It seems like we are still in the mode of trying things to see what works and what doesn't work. It seems like we still don't know our personnel well enough to exploit their full potential. Perhaps that's true of every team at this point in the season. One thing we need to really focus on is our running game. It seems we have difficulty generating the 5-yard run on first down, the short yardage third down run and almost any run in the red zone. I think we have the talent to get very good at all of those scenarios. Our offensive line is coming on and getting better and better. Both Cooley and Haynes have shown the can run hard and get the yardage if they get any blocking at all. Smith will add to that when he is healthy. When we can throw off the run fake, it will really open up things for this offense. We really are not utilizing King's ability to run like we can, especially in the red zone. His passing has been good but I think he can improve and will with more time with his receivers. Singleton and Weatherford are homerun threats that we should target multiple times a game. The tight ends are still being under-utilized and I think that will come along as the season advances. While the play calling is OK, I really think there is a lot of room for improvement here. Just too much of calling the same plays over and over and not flushing them and moving on to something else that is working. I think Faulkner and Weinke need to really focus on putting our guys in the best possible position to make positive yardage on every play. The offense has a lot of potential and I am hopeful we can exploit our talent and develop this into a really top-notch aspect of our team. Go Jackets! [/QUOTE]
