re: LSU 2nd in the Nation in Red Zone Rushing TDs - 9 Rushing TDs - Why All the Sky Screaming?

What people are failing to understand is this is a "take what they give us" offense. Short 5-7 yd passes are an effective replacement for a run game. If they start coming out in Nickel and Dime on a regular basis, then our running will increase. Until then, why force it? If it ain't broke, don't fix it. For goodness sake, we're averaging 55 points a game, people...

You are correct. In the offseason it was discussed that the RPO/Brady offense would use short passes as a function of the run game. I'm happy with scoring every red zone opportunity and putting up 55 PPG. They will continue to develop the run game and blocking, but this is the type of offense it will take to beat Bama so I trust the staff knows what they are doing.
