This is supposed to be a run heavy offense, but if the running game ain't working out then sure, we should pass the ball more.

Yes he had 35 attempts but not when it counts. Look at that 2-12 in the second quarter. We handed the ball off for 2 yards. Gotta come out and pass and give Smith the chance to win. We opened up in the 4th quarter and he got us in position on that 3-12 pass play to Davis.

I thought they canceled that show.

Well, alex did have 35 attempts and it would be nice if the o-line gave him some time and the receivers made some catches.

Nolan has repeatedly said that he wants to run a balanced offense. Unfortunately, you're not going to get much balance when the Interior Line can't hold-up at the point of attack, and your run plays get stuffed for 2-yards.

That's becasue we don't throw it. It's no secret. Stop Gore. Until we pass 2/3 downs Gore gonna get killed and Smith is not going to get any passes off. Look at manning's o-line he could boil tea back there.

I found this thread on the last page of Niner Talk. For some reason there were 6 thread from September, but then the rest were from November.

It seems it was just after the Pitt game. Funny how you can sort of see it coming in this thread.
