Re: May 9 Tenders
yes, I had watched the video and read the transcript too. Totally agree...in fact reading this, they did exactly what they set out to do.

Re: May 9 Tenders
Thank you!
I think the two quotes from different posts go hand in hand and shed light on Steve's thinking.
I think Steve is looking at teams that use the short passing game as a run substitute and saying I/we don't want to do it that way. We want to turn those short run equivalent passes back into real runs.
Clock usually doesn't stop on a run, the offense is controlling it.
Those lighter pass defending LBs need to be exposed in YAC - Yards After Contact, as opposed to yards after catch. Either a shifty move for a glancing hit, or the pile moving ahead for another 2-3 yards.
We are not going to be ID's as a running team, but as a team that runs the ball .... runs it enough, and has enough good blocker TEs that can catch to make play action real effective.at one point of my life I was exactly Pi years old

Re: May 9 Tenders
Not sure about this, but, at the end of the year wasn't our pass/run % close to 50? Always thought this is balance. No?

That's fine and dandy unless the line is getting penetrated and it's des a dts hitting those backs. A poor to average line with average at best backs only equals 3rd and 7s. Then that shakey line has to hold up and well we have seen the results

Re: May 9 Tenders
Ozzie, when asked about priorities for the off-season:
"We need to add some depth in the secondary, we need to improve in the offensive line, we need to find a complimentary receiver. Those are the areas we feel like we should attack this off-season.”
Ozzie, when asked about adding a WR:
“Some of the success we’ve had here is going out, whether it’s by trade, free agency or cap casualty, and getting a veteran receiver who still has some juice left, still has some ability to play at a high level. When I was talking about getting a complimentary receiver that’s what I was referring to. It doesn’t have to come through the draft; it can come through other means.”
Except they didn't address the line or add a 'complementary' receiver.
