TheItalianStallion Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I'm ECSTATIC that we're 4-1, but we've once again put up a fairly mediocre number of points despite lots of yards. We had over 450 yards of offense against NO, yet we had less than 30 points to show for it. The Arizona game wasn't a huge offensive game for us, so 24 points is acceptable there. But each of the past 2 weeks we've had nearly 400 yards of offense, yet we've gotten 26 and 23 points in each of them. We outgained the Eagles by over 130 yards, yet we beat them by less than a TD. With the weak schedule that we have over the next few weeks, we have an opportunity to fix that. I'll be happy with wins, but I would really like to see us put up a boatload of points over the next few weeks. EDIT: Okay, a lot of the people who have replied in this thread have completely misunderstood my point. ALL I'M SAYING is that we're continuing to leave points on the field. Oh and please take note of the first 5 words of this post. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reic Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Well, we are scoring over 20 points a game, and that was hard to come by last season, so that's a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdskn4Lyf21 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Look, I'd love to see us blow teams out, but we are dominating them even while getting ****ed by the refs. Enjoy the win, our team is looking great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoyler23 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I would be great to have had one more TD than FG the last two weeks, but were moving the ball and controlling the clock every game besides the opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsHokieFan Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 It will start to happen. Thomas, Kelly and Davis will get more involved and those FGs will start to turn into TDs This is only the 5th game of the Zorn O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun Kao Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Let's not forget that despite how we seemed to handle them, the Eagles have one of the best defenses in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabee1973 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 As this team gels and get s more comfortable with the offense things will click its not like last year it seems where we would just die or play to get the field goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKOALSKIN Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 yeah no one is scoring on the eagles, cowboys, or Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnhay Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I'm still waiting for Fred Davis and Malcolm Kelly to get involved in the redzone. Kelly's been injured, but I think Davis should start getting some practice down there really soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 We've scored - The second most points against the Saints this season. The second most points against the Cardinals this season. The second most points against the Cowboys this season. The second most points against the Eagles this season. It could also be the schedule.

playoffsplz Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Sorry dude but this is a really weak point. If you asked me a few weeks ago if we would have scored 20+ in Dallas and Philly I would have laughed at you. If this team stays focused I'll bet will see a one or two 30+ games in the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnhay Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 wow.. close this thread. People just dont know much about football. I don't think you need to know much to see that we got 3 field goals instead of TDs. EDIT: To be fair, one field goal was really impressive at the end of the first half.

Metalhead Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 The offense seems to bog down inside the 10. But to me looks like a combination of poor execution and strong timely defense by our opponents. Against Dallas we had the fade pass to the back corner of the endzone caught, but that pass was late and led the reciever out. We just need to work out the kinks and score earlier from farther out before the field shortens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisjan76 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 i'd like us to put more points up on the board too, but as long as we're scoring more than our opponents i'll be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddub52 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Well, they took away the Devin Thomas TD against AZ The Portis TD run against dallass And now the Randle EL TD cuz he wasnt touched and they called him down. Besides, its not like we are playing easy teams 30 points will come this week against STL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntotoro Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I'm happy we're winning and these guys are still improving. Trust me, they know they've left points and yards out there. They're still growing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
