Offense-unit analysis

I still say Jimmy Haslett is the problem and that\'s why no one ever knows what they problems are.

Well, I couldn\'t agree more. I\'ll say this about the line - they seemed to do fairly well in the zone blocking and off-tackle sprint plays, but they are bad in short-yardage mainly b/c they don\'t get a ton of push. Part of that might come down to the fact that every team knows that Bentley is our stud and when we go short yardage we\'re going at the gap between him and Fontenot. Thus, they plug that and it\'s not like we ever attempt to run anywhere else. In other words, play calling might be as much the culprit in short yardage as anything else.
