Really is frustrating. LaFell was a JAG according to people through the first few weeks last season and now it's like the offense is going to fall apart because Aaron Dobson, who played OK in that spot as a rookie will be playing there.
Ya, the WR corps is a bit weaker with LaFell out but I think Chandler as the 2nd TE and the depth at receiving RB more than make up for it.
What if McDaniels ran a formation like this at times this season.
Chandler---OL---Gronk---- Edelman
White Brady Lewis
Might not be an offense that is gonna move 80 yards in 5 plays but i'll take 10+ play chew the clock up drives all day.
I've been talking about that formation a fair bit. It's strikes me as tough to defend. If the opposition put on linebackers you pass the ball, if they keep their CBs on, you run the ball and you've also got the max-protect of two RBs if needed. It's not an every down formation but I bet it would give the Colts nightmares.
