It's so easy! An uncomplicated offense that scores lots of points and controls the clock, how hard could it be.
I trust Shaw to get us on track. Maybe a new offensive philosophy is warranted, but I think he can figure that out better than us fans. The fact is he has been pretty versatile this year with his play calling to try and get things going, but it hasn't worked out. Maybe our personnel just isn't up to snuff, and maybe there is something with the offensive philosophy that isn't ideal for the players we have, but who is to say they would be any more successful in the simple, high scoring but also ball controlling offense you propose.
