    Not entirely true. Opponents stacked the middle to try and prevent the inside run and the short crossing routes. It never stopped the run and it put the wideouts in single coverage. You can't blame Miles for running the ball with a power running game like we had and a quarterback who could loft the bomb when it was there.

    Agreed.

    We had one of the best mid range passing games in the nation this year, thus our incredible 3rd down conversion rate!

    what was said about Jefferson? I don't recall anyone ever saying he could throw worth a fuck, before or after his career.

    Can't disagree with a thing you said.

    I think the concern comes down to gameplanning and development. Can Cam make Jennings a Antwan Randle El? Or is he better with making Stephen Rivers and Rettig like Phillip Rivers and/or Joe Flacco?

    Didn't Miami draft Pat White out of West Virginia while Cam Cameron was there?

    Cam was gone after 2007 and Pat White wasn't drafted until 2009.

    When the QB is 7 of 21 he needs to be handcuffed. He was sacked 4 times so that is at least 26 pass plays called. If you watched the game, after the first drive we tried to have a passing game but Jennings was not productive while the running game was so horror of horrors Cam and Les adjusted and followed success.
    Sometime people try to fit what happened into their preconceived notions. It is better if they objectively look at the game and draw conclusions from that. Try again.
