I took it more as him saying we can't do what we want
We want to be a ball control offense that pounds the running game, uses play action, and gets the ball to playmakers who can get extra yards in space (a classic approach that works well with great talent).
But as he said, we have proven that we are not that team this year. We can't just line up and have our guys beat theirs. So we will need to use creative schemes and play calls to mask our weaknesses. The risk is that if we don't execute, we could have more 3 and outs and create an even worse situation for our Defense.
I expect we might see some new sets and a different flavor of offense next game to get things moving. I don't think we are going full mint choc chip, but we could see some vanilla bean with mint chips.
