You're wrong.
Without the downfield element rearing it's beautiful head in this offense, this is a mediocre team at best.
Downfield Big Game Alex is our savior, as amusing and unexpected as it is. It's added something like 60 points to the offense, and without that output we easily drop games to Philly, Washington probably either the Houston or New England, since those games were heavily dependent on huge plays in the passing game.
Even pick just two of those games and it's a 3-4 team.
But it's not, because big plays win ****ing football games. Which isn't rocket science, but you've spent four years defending the other (failed) approach, so you're dug in.
