Downfield passing

Post by MarkL »

I love it! I have not seen our offense this fun to watch since the 04 and 05 seasons with Jacobs at QB. This is such a fun team to watch and I expect the next several years will be even more. Keep it up, Falcons!

Right on...and if we could get the running game going it would be even better.

More important than picking up the running game would be stopping the other team's running game. It would allow us to not be forced to throw 60 times a game--while that would hurt Freddies numbers, it also would allow us to work the run game more.

From reliable sources on this site say Clawson loves tight ends and fullbacks---be very afraid of tight ends and fullbacks and 175 running backs "plowing into the line" in our future. Be very afraid....

You're like herpes, cowboyjoe...

The term "basketball on grass" has run through my head watching the past couple of games. This is fun to watch, no doubt. I am excited to see how Clawson develops our offense over time, though. Should be even more fun!

I don't think it's any secret that Clawson plans on moving BG to a West Coast style offense. With this in mind, do you really think he'll recruit 175 pound running backs? Not a chance. He will recruit the personnel needed to play a West Coast style offense. Instead of nay-saying and deciding, without proof, that Clawson is going to have undersized running backs "plowing into the line," why don't you let the man do what he's done....TWICE.

Sorry Pettigrew is 183 lbs. That's the only proof I need. He's ready to take over for Geter isn't he?

Pettigrew may only be 183 this year, but I'd like to see him after a full off season with Hillman in the weight room.

Kind of like how Geter has gone from 171 to 175 in three years?
