Well, I finally hit on one. This game was as even as it could be.
I didn't see any attempt by our D on several fronts. a. not covering receivers closely, has been a problem for how many years? b. no stunts by defensive line at all, same path to QB every time, and c. nobody covering the middle of the field on the QB scramble for a TD.
Is there another fanbase that knows they cannot afford to let the other team go to 3rd down?
Cain's drop was offset by #8's drop.
Critique of our offense:
1. I think our star tight end was injured so that limited choices on the goal line at the end. but if you are an OC with a brain, you have to change things up, offer something else. I think that is where the old-fashioned screen to Bijan came in. Get KRob in there as well.
2. Whitt needs throws his way big time. Great player.
3. Rojo needs to be on the field much more. needs 10-15 carries a game.
