We're not talking absolutes here. You don't have to abandon offensive philosophies. You mix in different elements to be successful. You can run a no huddle for a series. You can run shotgun a couple of times within a series. You don't have to be a 100% shotgun or 100% no huddle offense. Obviously, we are trying to be a 100% west coast offense and it doesn't work with the players we have. It can work if you mix up your playbook and design plays that can be successful with the players you have. It's amazing how the 3 yard out that is horribly unsuccessful thus far can be improved when you run something completely different the play before for positive yards. It's when the defense knows what to expect from you play after play that your offense looks like this.
It is without question that we have a lack of talent on this team. Regardless of the schemes we run we still wouldn't be a very good offense. However; we have an unimagnitive and stubborn offensive philosophy and it makes us look even worse than we actually are.
Isn't that what they did yesterday?
