It appears to be finesse... its run success seems to come from a ton of jet sweep action and 3 and 4 WR formations that don't allow teams to stack the box
That's fine if its working but I will need to rewatch yesterday. I'm just not sure why they didn't run more action yesterday and honestly Gurley only rushed the ball 15 times period when they did...what were the formations? I need to see

It's a finesse offense. A nice one. A fun one. But one without power.
It's predicated on deception, movement, and crisp execution of the passing game.
When that gets rolling, they can score in bunches.
But they can't enforce their will in the running game. They get stuffed too easily when the other team isn't fooled.
They don't have guys who can open a hole for the run even when the other team knows it's coming.
And when the run game doesn't work, the pass game suffers, too.
They get punched in the mouth and their game goes away.
I agree with some others that the TE's are a weakness right now. What a difference between Higbee and Rudolph!
