I must say I think Fairchild has been pretty aggressive in his playcalling. I really liked that play-action call on 3rd and 1 at midfield in the 1st Quarter. I think they've done a good job attacking the Bengals defense. If JP threw that pass with air under it, rather than on a line that is a score because Evans was wide open.
My only complaint is on 1st and goal from the one. Fairchild went and outsmarted himself again. He should have pounded that straight up the middle. Counter-runs have not been working and you don't need all that motion. Then to stay in the goal-line package on 2nd and 3rd was stupid. At that point spread it out and let Marshawn run with more field. Open it up, don't condense it.
Other than that I do like the aggressive attack by the offense. The only thing is we need Touchdowns in the 2nd Half, not Field Goals.
