Anybody ever think that Raye's playbook was drastically toned down/altered due to a revolving door at QB and an inept offensive line?
Look I'm skeptical of the guy but I think it's only logical to give him a second shot with the same system in tact for a second year, the same QB in that system and a (hopefully) competent offensive line. Not to mention Crabtree in year 2.
He may be much more liberal in his playcalling.
If he's not after this year, then I say we break out the torches and storm the village. But until then, all arguments are premature.

Offensive Philosophy
This year we will be coming into the season with 2 rookie linemen, 3 cowbell RB's, no RB speed off tackle, defenses with plenty of game-film on Raye's predictable play-calling and Davis' "seam route" and probably no Baas pulling at LG for Gore TD's. Away games are brutal for us, starting drives and extra time to prepare for teams seem to work against us.
That said, continuity should help esp. if Raye actually decides to research his opponents weaknesses for a change, game-plan properly and practice them to perfection in practice (ala Walsh) and allows Alex (much more audibles) and others to attack those weaknesses. Raye SHOULD know his players better and doesn't have that excuse anymore. The same offensive system should help but he greatly needs to expand to an NFL offense from Pop Warner. Better o-line coaches should help too.
We don't need "balance." We have all the tools to be a spread and hopefully a grind-'em-out offense too now. What we need is an OC that can effectively exploit a defenses weaknesses the first half (and the whole game) and secure that win in the second half. If that means predominatly running a spread against a team who's major weakness is against the pass or running predominatly against a team who's weakness is against the run, we do that!
Again, it all comes down to offensive philosophy, game planning, preparation and execution. Talent and injuries and even the QB to a large degree are no longer excuses. Singletary and Raye have their players now.
2010 is all on Singletary and his cowbell, Raye! Right now, Singletary and Raye's desire to grind it out and hope to be in a position to win it in the 4th quarter is a recipe for a .500 club at best esp. in today's game, IMHO. Let's hope they both have learned a lot from 2009!
Let the games begin!!!

I will take that anyday, over the lame ass bubble screens. (didnt we used to run quick slants in the Steve young days, that Jerry would take to the house ???)
