Who holds this offense back more?

I believe the current poll numbers, 53% JG, 47& KS are pretty accurate.

To some extent, the perception of the offense is driven by fantasy numbers and the league bias for passing over running. Kyle clearly, CLEARLY, prefers to run the ball and that limits the scoring. Even when they are winning, a running team is not going to score as much as a winning passing team. Consequently, when the opponent limits the run game, it is going to be seen as an offensive failure even though the team wins...as per yesterday.

Zero to do with the defense not being scared of the passing game?

Nothing to do with passing.

I voted Jimmy and it's not even close. With all these weapons it would be hard for any coach to mess it up if the QB was elite. At the end of the day it's the players job to execute and nobody touches the ball more than the QB. Jimmy is just not good enough to move the ball down the field drive after drive. He will have a couple of decent drives and a few good passes and then follow it up with some bad drives and bad passes. And because of this it's hard to have an explosive offense that scores at will. Jimmy is a decent QB but he is not an elite QB. So how are you expected to have an elite offense?

Said it before and no prob saying it again.. guess who picks the QBs.. KS.

So if you don't like JG.. you have KS to thank.

To me it speaks to KS and the clubs QB talent eval. Remember, they gave up a pick and paid this man $137m, which was record money at the time. It's the best KS has been able to do at the QB position in 6 yrs.

His health history and Trey's price tag.

I'd throw playoff performance in there as well.

david lombardi said that kyle needs to trust jimmy more now, and open up the passing game. that jimmy is playing great football and defenses are committing to stop the run. i tend to agree with this. if we pass to set up the run more, there will then be a point where we can strike that perfect balance in time for the playoffs.
