I said this the other day in the John Lynch thread. We have talented players: Use them! Scrap the little gen bs submit to our will crap. It really shows arrogance, stubbornness and stupidity for them failing to make adjustments. If we dont win this game, its going to be a bad run of losses. This is the only easy W we have and we need it bad. If the season starts to fall apart and we are looking at another high pick, I blame it on the Glazers moving like molasses to find a new coach. Y’all remember? “Oh were going to take our time to get the right staff!” Bullcrap! Look where we are now and look at your stadium. I respect what Schiano did at Rutgers but come on man! Hire a guy with a losing record?

This should have been a suspicion in week 1, and OBVIOUS by week 2. V-Jax and Freeman’s arm should strike fear or heavy concern in every defense we play against.

But our brilliant coach with the cool Knute Rockne haircut has refused to acknowledge it.

“No!” he says, “First we’ll repeatedly shoot our pea guns at them TO BREAK THEM TO OUR WILL. Then MAYBE in the last two minutes of the war I’ll allow the lieutenant to use the nuclear thermo-blasters…”

Schiano has got to be the laughing stock of every other coaches’ meeting room…

Line up wide, 3 WRs… force the D to spread out and cover everyone. That should be the Bucs’ base offense. If they’re going to blitz, audible to a slant or a swing pass.

You can use the pass to open up the run. Going max-protect to open running lanes just brings more people to the point of attack.

With the talent and speed that we have, even if the OL is healthy passing is the strength…and Passing will open up the run.

Patriots and Packers are successful at using the pass to set up the run, but the only problem will be if Josh can get those short first down passes he been struggling to get. It will be difficult to beat teams deep when the safeties are 15 yards back waiting on the deep passes. Teams will not respect the underneath passes if he can make them.

Getting those short completions are critical when they are driving down the field, because two runs and an incomplete pass is what I’m been seeing a lot of lately. Burning defenses on 3rd down with short passes is what Tom Brady is used to doing which forces LB out the box to cover those lanes. Which should open up the running game.

I’d like to see a real dose of Blount before we go changing the approach.

@Travis the Patriots do it, the throw it around the field to open up the running game, get Freeman comfortable and in a rhythm and mix in some nice run calls and play action this offense could be explosive… Mike Will is on his game again and V-Jax will get his!

I agree, wholeheartedly. Our running game is struggling, instead of running to open up the passing game, why not pass to open up the running game? 4 games in we can tell the deep passing game is our strength. As crazy as it sounds Freeman is actually more accurate throwing deep balls than he is short to intermediate routes. Air it out. We wont become the Packers overnight, but there is nothing wrong with throwing 35-40 times per game when that’s obviously our strength.
