However, that's the recipe that beat 90% of the teams in the NFL.  Shut down the run and make teams 1 dimensional.  

My problem is I don't think Lou is good enough of a coach to put our players in the right position to make that happen. 

Lou is definitely not.
His focus is on defending the pass.
Hardly anyone on the defense aside from Hubbard and Reader can stop the run.
This team is not built to counter the smashmouth teams.
But given where they are at, you have to hope the offense with Chase and Carman can put up 25+ points a game, as the defense probably is going to allow 20-24 points a game.
