Steve Mariucci MUST go, along with the rest of this TIMID/TEPID coaching staff! Three yard passes, no run blocking or pass protection SSSSOOOOFFTT defensive scheme. Use the three-wide set as your base set and make hay on FIRST DOWN! Spread the field and space the linemen so that Kevin Jones has running lanes. Stop worrying about getting equal plays for your “personel groups”. Find three or four things to do and do them well! You will have mismatches on first down with one of the Williams boys in the slot on the weak side. If the defense covers with a linebacker, bingo! If they roll a safety over the top or man up to the slot, then use the tight end in the vacant area or use K. Jones in the flat on the strong side. Football is simple in that there are 11 men on the field and if you overload the field to one side then the defense has to react or get burned.

It’s O.K. to be a finesse team but you stil have to be physical and aggressive in the trenches. You also have to have a willingness to go for the jugular when necessary! Mooch is in denial about spreading the defenses out. He countered with the fact that they were running from those formations Sunday. Yes, when they were down by 4 td’s. The other problem, with the poor O-line play, the Lions need to max protect Joey or he will continue to throw 2 yard passes in the flat as soon as he feels pressure. DeMulling and Backus are terrible and they miss Sledge.
