25-30. Worst stat line of the week. Tells you were we really are on D.
Agreed.
Offense wasn't good but I'm not sure letting Colt McCoy go 25-30 was better. And the missed tackles, my god. Maybe tap the breaks on handing McClain a megadeal.
Not sure why we went away from the run, would have liked to see it more, but don't think it's as "jump off the ledge" worthy as some do.
I'm equally concerned about the inability to do anything with playaction. Maybe the stats will say otherwise but I feel like we haven't been able to do as much with playaction as I'd like all season. We clearly wanted to, and it failed over and over. I think at times running playaction on the short yardage downs is smart, we did not capitalize all night.
Not sure you will be able to go 14-2 running the ball 35 times a game all season, the league is too smart for that. Gonna have to get these WRs going a little more than they were tonite, at least. Lots of passes, but not enough downfield success -- that was also a problem besides questionable decisions not to run.
