How to fix it (Offense)

[Nu Guns]

What about switching Moose to TE ??

[guyinchesapeake]

I think we're going to have to start to rebuild to some degree after this season. Draft a QB and some WRs and acquire as much O-line depth as possible. Moose is old, Smitty is getting real beat up by being the focus of our passing game, and his ability to gain separation is questionable.

That said, to fix what needs fixing NOW, it all comes down to playcalling. I am going #%*^ing insane watching us throw an incompletion on first down, and then always, ALWAYS, run between the tackles on second down, and thus ensuring third and long. That's what happened Monday night in the second half. We don't have ANY imagination or wrinkles on offense. When we can't get the ball to our playmakers hands via the pass, then end arounds and/or reverses should be tried to do so. We had success using our TEs more in the passing game, I hope that continues. We tried no screen pases that I can recall Monday, though we've had some success with them in earlier games. I'm even in favor of letting Smitty return some kicks to get something generated.

I think you either start Moore or give Jake more control of the offense and let him do what he does best in the no huddle and such.

Also, Rosario is the key to opening up the passing game.

[Mr. Scot]

Rosario's hands still get a little iffy sometimes, but I'd agree he's better than last year.

I'd largely written him off, but he's coming on again. Not fully there yet, but improved.

:iagree:

As odd as it is, thats not a bad idea, Moose is a great blocker, one of the best in the League in WR blocking. Give him a job with more blocking and still a chance at the ball and he'd play well.

i think he's massively improved over last year. the only thing holding him back is the guy (not) throwing to him.

i was among those who had written him off and thought that barnidge had passed him up but rosario is one of the most versatile players on the team and has the potential to be one of the best playmakers if he were given more opportunities.

[Mr. Scot]

So here's the operative question, knowing our usual mindset.

Do you prefer a single tight end set with Rosario at TE and Hoover/Fiammetta at fullback, or is there more versatility out of the two tight end set with Rosario and Jeff King?

[Fireball77]

My initial though is two TEs, though Hoov is a big part of the run game. I think it's more WHEN to go with WHAT.

[Mr. Scot]

Hoover is hurt at the moment, though. And Fiammetta isn't Hoover (not yet, anyway).

[Fireball77]

As long as there's no Hoov, no question, two TEs.

I second that. I never have given up hope that Rosario will turn it on. My faith was waining though. But I will wait and see what he does the rest of the season before I get to excited over him (he did the same thing last year with his week 1 performance then he drop off the map)

[Spike]

I would give Duke Robinson a shot at right guard.

I just want to know what Barnidge did to get put so low on the depth chart or what did Rosario do so right. IMO Barnidge has the same speed as Rosario with better hands. Am I missing something?

My dude, its useless asking these questions
