Quick thoughts

One thing that has frustrated me with the offense this season, is we will take a deep shot on 1st down and fail, you can almost guarantee that the next play will be a run. I don't mind the 1st down call, and we will probably fail on 50% or more of those downs, not a problem, it's what we do afterwards that annoys me. As was said earlier use the play action, and our TE's more. How many catches have the TE's had? Not many i would guess.

Mo Alie-Cox has 11 for 194 yards with 2 TD's, Doyle 4 for 61 yards, Burton 2 for 16 yards. So a total of 17 in 4 games for a total of 281 yards and 2 TD's. The backs have had way more:- Hines 16 for 97 yards with 1 TD, Taylor 10 for 90 yards, Mack 3 for 30 and Wilkins 2 for 22 yards, totaling 31 receptions for 239 yards and 1 TD.

I would like to see this change quite a bit, literally swapping the frequency around. Would prefer to see the TE's averaging 8 receptions a game and the backs just the 4. We seem to be struggling to utilise the middle of the field in the 10-15 yard range. Which is the area of the field that i thought Rivers was at his best in.
