1. Design plays for Shepard at QB. He was the number 1 dual threat QB in the country, no reason to have such little production. Run the wildcat, fake to Murphy, throw to a wide open Randle. I don't mind seeing Shepard at RB either, just don't line him up at WR. Keep him as a RB/QB.

2. Work on a power running game. When we need to get 2 yards for a first, we have to just line up, run up the gut and get those yards. I have confidence Ridley can do it. This is what was missing in our offense this year and this would help the defense a lot. I'm sick of Crowton calling a 3 yard pass play on 3rd and 5 missing the 1st down.

3. Take advantage of mismatches. We will have two 5* WRs, Toliver and Randle, I'm sure somewhere there will be mismatches. Exploit them, use fade routes, Jefferson seems to do very well on them (unless its called on the 1 yard line ) yet we rarely call that play.

Most important, stick with what is working, make the defense stop it!
