OKay so we lost a heartbreaker that a lot of people here thought would be a blowout.
The O-
Starting the game by running Lynch was good since we didn't know what we had in him. Now that we know , IMO we start games with JP throwing the ball and get him in a rythm. If he doesn't get that rythm early , he never will the entire game especially when we need him most.
Gong deep with Evans was one of those playcalls that if it worked, pure genius and if didn't, stupid call. The same can be said with going for it on 4th with Lynch. It worked therefore , genius. I know it sounds like a cliche' but "you play to win the game" OUr problem was simply execution. We went with the proven JP to Evans and although I don't have a problem with that , why didn't we go and take a chance early on? Maybe it would've opened the game and if they connected, it would've given JP more confidence or changed the pace of the game.
In relation to that Lynch first down on 4th, a year ago Willis didn't make that first down against the PAts. Again a gutsy call then that if we made it, geinus.
WHy is it we don't run screen plays when teams like the PAts and Denver runs it to perfection? With Reed , Parrish, Lynch, Evans , we have more than enough talent to do so. Does JP short passes really suck that we can't run it? Well , his INT showed probably why.
Fairchild should take that play that Cutler ran on 4th and use it with JP whose more mobile.
THE D-
same old D giving up a ton of yards but not a whole lot of points. they were not great but the thing is, they never gave up. The effort was there but a very young D can only do so much when your O keeps going 3 and out. This D isn't good enough to bail itself out all the more bail out the O. While we thought the O would carry this team, it seems like the O was a bigger problem .
Since he's gifted with great football IQ , I suggest we let DiG learn the wlb and have him play beside POZ til' Ellison is fully recovered. He's a waste sitting on the bench especially now that Wire is injured.
ST-
Awsome but not consistent. Shot themselves in the foot at the very end of both the 1st half and end of the game. You could argue that either penalties lost us the game amongst other things :huh:
Let's see...... both the jets and fins suck with us so it's gives us hope :scratch: It a matter of whose crap stinks more.
Last but not least , My prayers go our to Everrett. Maybe BILLSZONE can organize a rally for him outside the hospital. If we can do zone lunches we sure can go there support the guy. I'll go. If the team can't step up, let the 12TH MAN do so.
