Anyone going to hold Ben accountable?

No huddle and empty are the same thing???? No they are not. Just because we go empty doesn't mean we are no huddle

Sorry, meant empty backfield.
 
You are really good and talking in hyperbole...that's about it.

They ran the 3TE sets mostly in games when we had a lead in the second half...Not in the same situation as we ran them against the Ravens.

Here's a simple question, if we line up in our goal line formation on the 50 yard line on 3rd and 18, is that the same as lining up in goal line formation on the half yard line on first and goal?

What difference is it if you have the lead the defense is playing run. So whether you are trying to establish your run game or preserve a lead the defense you are running. And when you line up in Three TE you aren't necessarily in GL.
 
Your not a fan when they go three TE either it's the offense they run. I don't like when they line up in shot gun on 3rd and short but what the hell can I do .
No I'm not, but I at least gave my opinion on what they should do. So you like the 3 TE set when you have 3 young TEs who can't block worth **** and we are running against a good run defense?
 
It is pretty easy...

Yeah but forget how you feel about Tomlin or Haley for that matter you think munchak would Cosign a play where his Oline doesn't block Suggs?
 
I never said that 3TE sets was Goal Line. It was a simple question, since in your mind a play is the same regardless of the situation, down, distance, or personnel.

No I wanted Nix in the damn game as lead blocker but he wasn't active. But these are the plays they had success with before and practiced all week.

Of course, because we did it when we were 4-1...SMH

And when did I say that??

Pass plays are designed all the time that throw to the spot vacated by the blitzing LB. With out knowing the play call or knowing the playbook there is no way to know.

We did it last year. We've been doing it for awhile. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't.

So Heath Miller and Matt Spaeth is the same as Jesse James and David Johnson? Sure, since a play is the same regardless of anything else.

He threw deep into double coverage. If that's the call it was stupid. But it's much easier for me to believe two young players Big Al or James messed up. That makes more sense to me. Then a play designed to leave Sighs rushing free on our 100 million dollar investment

So it's ok for YOU to speculate about something that you have no actual knowledge of but nobody else can speculate on the coaching staff...makes total sense

You can speculate as much as you want but make sense.
 
Where did I say the above that "regardless etc"

You just said that we ran the same plays last year, when we had different personnel. That insinuates that the plays are the same REGARDLESS of who is running the plays.
 
So Heath Miller and Matt Spaeth is the same as Jesse James and David Johnson? Sure, since a play is the same regardless of anything else.

Oh OK since we don't have Heath or Spaeth we should scrap all plays where out TEs have to block. Well **** I didnt know that

It's the offense Todd Haley runs. Those guys were drafted hoping they could replace those players and do some of the things they were able to do.

When they aren't working, yes, it's called adjusting. Wait I should probably be telling this to Tomlin, not you.

And if you don;t have the players to run your offense you adjust your offense accordingly. Trying to pound a round peg into a square hole if ******* stupid.

So how do you try to establish a running game of you don't try to establish a running game?? And I already went thru the plays they weren't just run run pass.

Uh, you can go 3 or 4 wide, spread the defense out and force a LB out into coverage which opens up the middle of the field. You know, instead of pounding a 220lb RB into an 8 or 9 man front REPEATEDLY.

Um the Miami game they were criticize for not running enough. Bell didn't get the ball enough. Where was the running game?? Try to run to help your QB coming off an injury that's stupid too..
