They haven't done a very good job of taking those areas away up to this point. Whether in the pass or run, there are marked differences in success and failure. It's up to the coaches to find the strengths and weaknesses of the team and make those calls during the game. It's also up to the QB to know where the hot and cold spots are on the field and allow that to dictate where he throws the ball. Theoretically, of course. It's easier for a fan to sit here and say that...but the coaches and players are the ones watching film and practicing plays all week. It's something they should be able to do.
