That's my singular gripe with Monkens offense so far. He seems completely content to move slowly down the field. And to largely call conservatively. I feel like if he keeps what he's doing 80% and opens if up a bit more aggressively this offense would be perfect
i think he's been good at times - remember some of the lack of moving things downfield is lamar taking what the defence gives him and/or taking the checkdown etc.
it's the going into your shell in the 4th quarter that's frustrating - when we've passed the ball in quick game and also downfield, we were moving the ball with consistency and causing problems - our rushing attack was able to beat up on a weak(er than normal) bengals front with Gus, we werent going to be able to finish this game with melvin gordon/kenyon drake running behind sam mustipher into deforest buckner...
just felt like monken got small in the big moment there
but ive got no problem with calling for methodical slow-moving offensive drives... if that's what the defence is dictating we have to do
