Certainly its true that if we could have went 4 wide and got some decent completed passes downfield it would keep the defense honest. HOWEVER, if the receivers are not catching the ball, then its no sense in going with something that obviously isn't working. It worked yesterday because we EXECUTED!!! Its pretty much plain and simple.

I think you're trying to sway the argument way out in left field or either trying to argue for the sake of argument. Its obvious (for anybody who actually has been watching the games) that defenses were moving up more guys to stop the run because they didn't respect our pass. When we did pass...the receivers dropped the ball. IF our receivers had been consistant all along, then anything would have worked for us because defenses would have to shutdown a well balanced offense....example YESTERDAY.

Yeah, I kind of figured you'd turn this into a Gibbs worshipping argument. Regardless of who the coach is, I don't care if its you coaching, without execution, playcalling doesn't work..and the better the execution, the better and easier the playcalling seems....the deeper you can go into your playbook. If you only have 50% and less of your offense working, going with pass plays when passing is the weak point is stupid.
