As soon as they opened up the offense and applying pressure down the field Winston looked amazing. All that trying to run the ball **** needs to go out the window sometimes. It wasn’t working. It took too long to recognize that.

Agreed. Take what the defense gives you

I hated the compulsory first down, run the ball nonsense. Everyone knows its coming, and they stop us.

Our success offensively has always been the pass to set up the run. Winston was on the money once we opened up the passing game.

Right. That **** annoys me. And it’s always some kind of under center run to. Never a shotgun zone read. They should come out first play in shot gun, play action, and throw the ball. Or play action from under center and take a shot on the first play of the game. Change it up man. Payton is gone.

Yes! Because as soon as those throws start to happen the D will back off, the D-line will focus on rushing the passer and that makes it a lot easier to open the running lanes.
When runblocking it is, usually, much easier to move somebody trying to rush the passer than somebody trying to stuff the run because then you can just take his momentum and help him to go that way in a controlled manner and when he realises what is happening it is usually too late.
