Why Ingram is the Answer
Lets face it. We are a HighWire act. Ultra Finesse , Quick Slants, Few Screens , Couple Shot Plays and were done. That's our Entire Arsenal.
Don't Believe me ? Let's take a Look at our Most Frustrating Losses this year. Tom Brady excluded he's of something not of this Planet. Seriously. Jet's . Rams . Seahawks . What Have they All In Common ? Stellar Front 4s. 3rd Down and Distance in those games ? Average 3rd and 13 ... Which Means our first two Downs against Great Defensive Lines we are averaging on 1st and 2nd down a total net of -1.5 Yards ! My Thesis ? We abandon the run too early in the game. Especially when were on the road , especially when were down which only creates a vicious cycle of Offensive Failure. We start out right with a Nice Run on 1st Down. Miss Completely on 2nd Down And on 3rd We Put Immense Pressure on our Already embarrassingly weak Offensive Line. The Answer ? , no it's no revolutionary Double Move Spider 2 Y banana. It's to Keep pounding the ball. As frustrating as a 2 or 3 yard gain is when we are used to setting Records we need to put things into perspective. Although its only a short gain it wares on the Defensive Line. Which later on in the drive or game creates time for Drew when we do decide to take those " Shots " downfield they are wide friggin open. Complementary football Ladies and Gentleman. My Proposal ... Feed Ingram Early and Often. If He gets a Hole he is good for 10 ( See Dallas ) Mind you that was the Same Dallas Defense that went into Philly and Shut Down the Leagues Leading Rusher Completely. And to Date he is our only answer against physical teams such as Seattle or a San Francisco on the road. Oh and By The Way , Have you seen him Block on Passing Plays ? There Were a Few Plays where Robert Quinn Got Jacked up after easily beating our slow and weak Tackles. Ingram was there and he Let Quinn know how he felt about him touching his Quarterback. Facts are Facts when he gets rolling we are a different team. Either that or we just keep lobbing the ball up praying we come down with it. To Win a Bowl you Need to run the ball. We Drafted him , lets allow him a true opportunity succeed. Like it or Not , We'll have to go on the Road this postseason ... And We're going to need that tenacity and those yards. |
You Can't Say Impossible without first saying Im Possible ...
