We have dropped, squandered and generally failed to hit on the game busting play repeatedly this season.

Jaelen Waddle dropping a crossing pattern that would have been explosive has been emblematic. Albert Wilson continues to be a bozo almost winner. Hakeem grant killed us. Dropped passes by Gisecki in the end zone. Missed reads by Tua.

If we can get some spark to create big plays we will win out and win in the playoffs.

Our defense is best when playing with a lead. The o getting a spark changes that and create a run away train. Especially since Ogbah is on fire and our D looks championship quality. Holland is extraordinary - he’s so gifted. Phillips moves like jason Taylor and is more violent.

Our offense needs to get a spark - if we do we will be dangerous.

Despite the drive ending in a punt, I liked how we came out with our first set of downs last game, getting Gesicki and Waddle involved right away and letting tua get in a rhythm, then we got Duke going as well. If there's anything i'd like to see as far as spark, i say use no huddle more. Tua seems to thrive in it.

We do have 42 plays of 20 yards or more. By comparison Buffalo has 49. Buffalo has 3 players in double digits. Miami only has MG in double digits and Parker is third on the team with 6 Big plays. But Miami does have 4 players with plays of 50 yards or more while Buffalo only has 2. We definitely need another receiver.

I actually am in the minority when I say that our OC’s are doing a pretty good job with the weapons they have. I feel like position coaches could probably be doing more. But as far as game planning goes we have been pretty good. Execution has been abysmal at times. But I can’t blame the OC’s for calling the plays if they were the best plays they saw in practice that week. That’s on the players and the head coach. BB doesn’t play guys that don’t understand their responsibilities on every play.

The plays have been coming. And we have seen progress. I’m gaining confidence in the offense. I think they have been adding to the playbook since the bye week and that cost us some continuity in the offense. Hopefully it’s coming back for the playoff push.

The OL can't get a RB though the LOS without some contact. Not a good way to expect big plays.
Th OL can't give TT and receivers time to run deep routes. Not a good way to expect big plays. It is true, the right route/pass can result in YAC, but every D seems to have little fear of a deep ball, thus, they're placing emphasis on limiting the YAC after short passes.
IMO, this means there is no spark without fuel - in this case, OL
 
We don’t get big chunk plays because:


1. Out offensive line can’t hold their blocks for more than .0000001 seconds;

2. We don’t have a real deep threat WR except for the guy who’s on IR w an “injured finger;

3. We don’t have a RB that runs more than a 5.5 40 yard dash and

4. Did I mention the offensive line stinks???

Totally agree but you left off one thing:

Fins don't need to in most games because of how good the D is. When you have a shutdown D you don't go for "sparks" - you wear down the clock and preach ball control.

I agree with 3 of these, but I wanted to ask why you don't consider Waddle a real deep threat? I get that he hasn't been that this year, but I put that more on the other reasons you listed vs him not being a deep threat type of WR. I also wonder how effective the injured one would be as a deep threat with this terrific line we have or if he would be in a similar role as what Waddle is doing.
