    When you have two great backs, yes, you keep feeding them the ball until they start making plays. Especially when you're leading, on the road.

    The only thing that was working was the no-huddle where we did it exactly twice and we moved the ball exactly twice. Coincidence? No, Fox and Davidson don't f*cking get it. They see something working and go away from it.

    Yeah, you run the ball with an ineffective rushing attack with a ultra-padded 7 point lead. That's the problem with Fox...he's TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO conservative. If we kept attacking instead of playing safe, the Panthers MAY have left with a win.

    Or they may have gotten fucked up even worse.

    Jesus, do you really want to put the ball in the hands of Jake in a no-huddle attack? Are you that fucking stupid? The only reason it works in a 2 minute situation is because defenses give very basic looks and are defending predictable areas of the field. Obviously, Rosario made some great plays before the half getting behind the defender, but you can't expect that to work the entire game.

    Yeah, the Cowboys stifled Deagelo to a measily 5.8 yards per carry. No wonder we went to the pass, with Smitty being doubled.

    True, but playing close to the vest isn't going to get many wins with the schedule this year. The defense needs to tighten up and the offense needs to break their mold of run, run, pass. Notice that Dallas broke out the wildcat, reverse, naked-bootleg/delayed draw etc.. in the second half and actually started to move the ball. That's what got them the 7-point lead. What did we do run, bomb and dropped pass.

    The draw plays were working. We just tried to get cute in the 3rd quarter with some rollout plays and it backfired.

    We went no huddle with fucking 12 minutes to go in the 4th quarter and it netted us a grand total of four yards. our defense was just on the field for virtually the entire third quarter and we come out in a no huddle. Brilliant...

    Speaking of Smitty, on top breaking off the slant, he dropped two, both were for first downs.
