Why can't we go to a 2 back I formation on 3rd and 1?? Put a big body as a blocking back and power your way to a first down. Delayed hand-off's don't cut with our O-line.

If we get into short yardage, toss two TEs in there with McKinney in the backfield as a lead blocker. Whether you're running with Fitzgerald or Mapps, I can't believe it wouldn't work. Too many guys and too much size and strength. Give it a whirl.

I agree- let's switch to the "Single Wing". 3 yards & a cloud of tire pebbles.
