Pure BS IMO

Sorry, I am calling BS on this one from Lafleur. He must be suffering from Demoff-itis.
I get the "we aren't going to just bang their head against the wall by running into stacked fronts" stuff but to only run 10 friggin times isn't even trying to beat those "stacked fronts".
IMO, he is just covering up for the fact that McVay got carried away with passing the ball.
Does Lafleur expect us to believe that our genius offensive minded head coach had not other options but to "pass" against those "stacked fronts"???
Has he ever heard of adding a TE to help out???
Or maybe call some misdirection runs, tosses and sweeps???
I don't care what Demoff... I mean Lafleur days, running the ball only 10 times is simply not good enough. I don't care how many stacked fronts they faced.
If the Bengals had to at least respect the run a little bit, maybe that LB wouldn't have been in those posItions to intercept the ball because he would've been closer to the LOS.
BTW, if they were always running these "stacked fronts" that were unstoppable, why was that LB always down field intercepting ball at least 10 yards away???
Does the LB play 10 yards off the LOS in a stacked front???
We have seen McVay face "stacked fronts" before and he ran it more than 10 times so I am not buying what Lafleur is selling. Sorry Mike...there is NO excuse for only attempting 10 runs against that defense that was low ranked against the run. NONE.
As Honest Abe once said...
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
