Jon Gruden as replacement OC?

Yeah...you right...2011/12 was a weird blur, high of the highs followed by a ridiculous low point (bountygate) right after a kick in the balls from the SF div game.

2012, not sure how I feel about the offense that season...the games we won were because we were able to establish our offense particularly the run game...but the games we lost which outnumbered those wins we struggled early offensively, defense sucked as usual and we had to throw like mad men to keep up. - leading to stat bloat.

I just don't want to look to 11 years ago for proof that Pete is capable, I'm a what have you done for me lately type of guy. We'll see what this year brings. <- about as sunshine-y pumpy I can be

We had two games in 2012 (Carmichael calling) where we scored fewer than 21 points. Six games under 21 in 2013 and Five games under 21 in 2014. I'm not going to dig around and try to analyze special teams and defensive scoring because the overview, and the final production, doesn't at all indicate 2012 as some kind of down year outlier from that period.
