Breaking the ice

Martinez should have easily put up 4 touchdowns on the 2nd team if this is going to be a great offense instead of the 13 points we saw.

I agree with the people who say the format had more to do with this than our actual offensive abilities. The two-hand-touch rules led to plays getting whistled dead that would've been first downs or maybe even huge chunks. It's hard to get into a rhythm and march down the field when plays that would've worked exactly how you wanted them to ended up as 2nd and 8 because of two-hand-touch. Can't really put too much thought or analysis into those drives at all in my opinion.

And the defense knows your schemes and the DC knows your OC better than any team you’ll play.
