*Two straight weeks and the team has shown an improved run game. Running the ball is one of the best ways to prop up pass protection as well. The running game always protects a QB.
As always, great feedback on the game, thanks!
I couldnt agree more with the above statement regarding the run game. The minute we stopped running, the game was lost. It totally changed the Pats defensive scheme. We lined up in the shotgun for most of the second half........which takes the guessing out of our play calling. All the Pats had to do was blitz anytime we were in the shotgun. Sure enough, we wouldnt pick up the blitz and bad things start to happen. Sherman's play calling is very Dan Henning'esque.
Im convinvced that with a different OC, we would have a better record. I feel like every play is from the shotgun with 3-4 wideouts. He hasnt designed plays that mask our poor o-line play. No bubble screens, no roll outs, nothing. We keep running the same type of offense, never adapting to our strengths and weaknesses.
There were a lot of things that went wrong in the game. Bad calls from the refs that resulted in points, turnovers, missed field goals, etc. But I think all of these things could have been overcome with better play calling.
Thoughts??
