“Coach Donovan has a great deal of experience at both the college and NFL levels, learning from a lot of great offensive minds about coaching the kind of aggressive, pro-style offense we want to play here at Washington. From my own experience, I know how much a coach can learn and grow by spending significant time in the NFL. I’’m excited for him to get to Seattle and get started.”

The sad/funny thing is, if you asked me what that even meant, to be aggressive on offense, I would say it means (a) taking shots downfield or trying to create chunk plays, and/or (b) running plays designed to get first downs on every play.

We are the exact OPPOSITE of that. We not only don't take shots downfield, we run plays whose very design limits them to 4-8 yards MAXIMUM even if things go perfectly (hint: they don't).

You know what re run? We run a bunt-the-runner-over offense. In JonDon's fever dream of an offense, his idea of success is to GET TO 3rd and short. I get it, avoid 3rd and long. You know how you do that? Don't get to fucking 3rd in the first place! Pick up the 1st down, or at least give yourself two cracks at it. His idea seems to be run for 3, then a crap pass or another run for 4, then aha, we've got them right where we want them at 3rd & 3. The problem is that any single problem means you punt because one missed block, one dropped pass, etc., puts you behind the sticks and you don't have that in your toolbox. We are the least agressive offense in this country. And in this decade.
