Just imagine what Cousins could do with a good pass blocking line!

I suppose I could have waited until tomorrow to make a separate thread, but the point remains that in my opinion this type of win isn't a sustainable model for success. We simply have to find ways to create a respectable run game, and have to impose our will in in short yardage/red zone situations to become a consistent and balanced offensive threat. It would be one thing if our pass game was opening up the run game, but it's not. Being one dimensional will eventually lead to disaster. Nitpicking or tempering the euphoria...I'm a Vikes fan who's seen this movie...lol

I think we need to factor in what defense we played against. This wasn't a bottom tier, or even a mid. I honestly expected to see us put up single digits. Also, I think Akers is going to make our run game better every week. I am wondering about Ham though. Is he off doing Captain stuff? Cuz it seems like we really could use a fullback on those goal line carries.
