Obviously teams are throwing the kitchen sink at us on numerous plays. Yet we still run the same plays we would against coverage, against the blitz. It's not rocket science, yet Mularkey turns it into rocket science. We are going to be blitzed, and blitzed hard. We know what's coming, so why not call plays that are designed to take advantage of a blitzing front. We need to run more screens, draws and 3 step drops. The screen is the absolutely perfect play to slow down a defensive front that is pinning it's ears back and coming after you. If you drop a screen behind a blitzing front, it's getting busted for a big gainer and the defensive coordinator thinks twice about calling for the kitchen sink again.
Also, instead of trying to be something we are not, we need to do things to cover up our deficiencies. Since we can't block the 5 step drop, why not run the 3 step drop into the ground. Have the lineman step inside and throw the quick pass, the slant whatever. Just get that time from the snap to the release down. It's what you do when you have deficiencies; you use the play calling to disguise and hide those deficiencies. You don't continue to call plays that constantly put your team in the scenario to be deficient. Be creative, don't let the defense dictate the offense. I'm of the belief it should be the other way around unless you have a defense like the Bears. Offense should dictate defense, you know what plays you're running, while the defense is left guessing.
Mularkey for some reason does not get all of this. He continues to put our offense in a situation to fail. If our oline is sub par, then put them in position to become successful by calling plays that mask their deficiencies.
I challenge you, Mularkey, to outsmart a defensive coordinator for once and stop allowing yourself to be dictated to by defense after defense.
