This is by far my biggest complaint with this offense. The offense is beyond predictable for the 1st half of games. Pretty much all runs or super conservative pass. Offense gains zero momentum and we fall behind. Then comes the 2nd half, we are behind and the offense needs to start being more aggressive and all of a sudden our offense gains a rhythm and we go from looking like one of the worst offenses to looking like we could score on anyone.
I get Cook is probably the best RB in the game, but we also have a top 3-5 WR duo in the league as well. If we use those WRs earlier on, it also helps open up gaps for Cook and makes his life easier. We just need to start every game with the playcalling like we are down 10 points and it would be all good.
