That 2-3 crossers, but most everyone stays in the box look isn't fooling anyone.  And Condell doesn't break the tendency enough.  We're telegraphing our plays and it really hurts us.

So many other teams I have no freakin' idea what they are going to do most downs -- but with us I can predict it correctly about the same as BC did!  That's never good.

I disagree completely. It feels like all our problems stem from the play calls and system. And you list a few of the reasons why.

I believe that the system is actually pretty good. They just need to be a little less predictable.
Unfortunately that means passing on first down and sometimes running on second and longish. 2 things that this forum would flame him for if he tried.

Those seasons where Zach played so well, he was excellent at reading the defense and making the throw. He also would roll out a little more and avoided pressure from inside the pocket. These are all things he's now struggling to do when he's healthy, and our backups struggle with it too.

QB play is more important than anything in this league and it really shows.

50/50 IMO, if they can't find more ways to win games both the QB's and the system are at fault.  With a decent offence they should have outscored BC well before the defence collapsed.  If the offence continues to perform poorly late into the season, I believe Condell will not be brought back next year.

The system is predictable, it has too many players in the same areas of the field, it's wasting a player in having Brady sprint out wide, it doesn't have a hot read, all of this leads to the worst red zone offence in the league and the league-worst turn-over ratio.
