Offensive Philosophy
I've been thinking about something Patrick Ramsey said on his NFL total access interview. I know that this was a "fluff" interview, but something he said stuck in my mind. When asked about changes in Washingtons offense he basically said that we had a lot of games that were lost by less than seven points and that we're looking for that extra touchdown. We have our minor problems with some players, but I think our main reason for concern should be this way of thinking. I don't want to question our coach and his philosophy, but I think it's been proven in today's NFL that having a lead and then playing conservatively to hold onto it does not work. I also know that Gibbs is going to be "opening the playbook" a little more and going vertical, but does anyone else see this as a problem? I think to be really successful we need to pour on the points even with a stellar defense.
