Yep, Dickenson's play-calling is not bad but he's got the wrong QB to do it. Burris isn't one to throw dinky 2 yard passes (the old West Coast offense). Burris needs to drop back and look for the deep ball or scramble and use his legs. Throwing quick 2 yard passes takes away Burris' legs which even at his age now, are still a weapon.
We've got two running backs who can easily run 5 yards, why throw 1 yard screens? Dickenson has designed an offense that his personnel cannot execute.
