Quote:Haha, its a topic that probably will never go away, either. It can be found in some form on probably all 32 NFL message boards as well as most college ones. I'm trying to give the benefit of the doubt as much as I can to Fisch while still trying to go by what we're seeing. 

 

I think people just want to see an offense that puts up a reasonable number of points compared to the talent, though. Last years offense talentwise was pretty bad. This year, while they are young - yes I get that, I think the talent level is significantly increased. Yet the overall point numbers are still similar to last year at a similar point of the season. People are getting frustrated with that and just want to see some flashes of what this offense could be as far as just having one breakout game or 2 by now. You know like the offense putting up a shootout or 2. They really haven't. And the thing is I'm not sure the playcalling that we've seen thus far is conducive to really get that type of point output. 

To be fair Blake has played 6 games. When were you expecting a "breakout game" to happen? And the talent level is improved overall but they are still rookies learning and adjusting. Most teams may start 1 maybe 2 in some rare cases. We have a legit 5 rookies starting on offense and a number of second year players as well. It will happen but we have to allow the time to pass.
