[quote author=stupac2 link=topic=15827.msg174266#msg174266 date=1475292291]Honestly, I think that's one of my big problems with our offensive design, it seems like we don't really scheme our guys open for those quick throws. If the run game isn't working we're completely incapable of using the short pass game to replace it, and I can't see any reason for it.

Yes I agree with this. Shaw and Chip Kelly are buddy buddy, and one thing Kelly's offenses do well is the quick-hitting passing game. Maybe they could brainstorm.

They have, but the big thing that I want to see is something like what NE runs. It's not even like you have to have Brady to run, Garoppolo did just fine in his starts with the same dink n dunk. You just need a quick arm and smart route running.

But whatever it is, I think we need to evolve our offense. We're doing largely the same things we did with Luck and while it works great when we have the overpowering OL, we can't really count on that year in and year out, not in college ball. The fact that we simply cannot play from two scores behind is a problem.



And yes, going for two is what you want.
