In the past its been more like 90/10 run heavy,


How far in the past? 1906? We have never been 90/10 or 80/20 under any coach in my lifetime. When we go run heavy, it's generally 60-40 run/pass or 65/35 against a good team. We only close games out with run, run, run when we are up by 30 and Miles is trying not to run up the score.



Guys...he's saying that 90% of the time it was a run heavy offense

Not that 90% of the plays are runs

I actually think we will look better all over. Run heavy over people to open up a down field passing game while throwing in the screens to keep people honest. We will e tough to slow down even though we will still be a more conservative type of style.

but I would like to see a few more shots downfield.
We had that last year and it didn't work. Poor QB development for the last 5 years. Hopefully Cam fixes that.

Biggest thing is utilizing the TE heavy in the passing game. Make the LBs leave the box to have to cover someone instead of being able to stay in and run-blitz. Get the 8 men out of the box and our run game will look like 2011 again.

All bias aside, this could be a very damgerous team..

a conservative offense with the capacity to explode off routine plays.

heck, last year Jeremy Hill exploded a few times. Blue is also capable of that.

this year we'll had some big play potential In the passing game.

PLUS we should be a threat to score on special teams.
