No Audibles

oh that last part i think we ALL realize.

Why audible? its not like the line blocks anyway.

Forget Audibles, they don't even seem to have hot reads. On good teams, the WRs and QB have this look they give each other. We on the other hand have this Nazi system that has no flexibility. You can't blame the players for that. I wish Gibbs would take over. Perhaps then we might win.

I actually thought Gibbs was not doing a good job calling plays. Way too conservative.

Exactly.. Trent Green is twice the QB Brunold is. He's not afraid to throw the ball down the field, stand in the pocket and take a hit to deliver the ball, use that huge green area between the hash marks, throw to more than 2 receivers in one game. Doing those things and using the screen game (where is the HB screen?) open up the running game significantly.

So if Brunell was to be allowed to call audibles what is it that you guys think he would audile to? A quick check-down maybe? Is that what we want? I think that these are already built into the play.

If anything, he should call out his protections the way Manning does.

I hope this is a joke. Did you see our offense last year? Our PPG was awful, the playcalling was awful, and we broke an NFL record for lowest offense in a playoff game. After that tampa playoff game both teams should have been eliminated.

You should check your statistics before you spout off and try to tell us things you do NOT know.
# 8 Mark Brunell Position: QB
Height: 6-1
Weight: 217
Born: 09/17/1970
College: Washington
NFL Experience: 14






31,826 career passing yards compared with Trent's 25,711

p.s. Look it up, they both were born in 1970.
sorry you lose

Thanks for the Brunell profile, and it is relevant how? At any point in the past 6 years I'd rather have Trent Green over Brunell.. He is a better QB, especially for this system..

how do you know this? was it something that saunders or coach gibbs said? if its true, which i doubt, we are the only team in organized football that doesnt have some sort of audible system. i guess our playcalling is so indestructable that no matter what defense is being played, the offense will work. what a ajoke

I don't know the answer to your first question. But how do you know we are the only team in organized football that doesn't audible?

It's been pretty well documented, here's some chatter from a Chiefs board when Saunders was there.

All scheme, no adjustments. The fact this offense has no audibles is Exhibit A that Saunders is just like Mike Martz...arrogant.

all teams at least make adjustments at the line of scrimmage, at least to change the direction of the running plays, against the overloaded side of the formation. my son played a team midget football last year, and that team had audibles. i wonder why an nfl team, with the top athletes in the world, wouldnt have the power to audible out of a play that they know is doomed to fail, right from the beginning? is al saunders that egotistical that he thinks his plays will work no matter what defense is being used?

Read something by Lombardi, Allen, Baugh, Jurgensen....Cooke....about the traditional system. NO AUDIBLES. Look at Gibbs at San Diego State and Tampa Bay. NO AUDIBLES. Gibbs allowed Ramsey to audible 2 years ago....jog your memory and do your history before you spew nonsense.
