I agree we don't have a QB to carry the offense right now. The O was terrible on 3rd down, but let's look at 1st down, too. We had 20 1st down plays (not counting the kneel down) for 66 yards, for a 3.3 yard average. Take out one 16 yard run on 1st down and we had 19 1st down plays for 50 yards, for a 2.63 yard average. 2nd and long sucks. Every team has bad 1st down plays, but you have to mix in some 6,7,8 yard plays to get drives going, opens up the playbook. I think Rudolph needs to focus on 1st down, maybe mix in a jumbo set or unbalanced line, maybe a play action to TE.....whatever, but focus on 1st down success. Maybe we need a little more trickeration to mask talent deficiencies. One more thing, we don't have an offensive identity.
