It blows my mind how people don't understand the very simple. We didn't not run because we forgot, or didn't want to. We didn't run the ball because we couldn't. They had the box packed and were in absolute attack mode. Why was that the case? Because we have a QB who cant throw the ball over 5 yards and Belichek knows that. Not sure how Obrian and Whiesenhunt didn't know that, but that probably has a lot to do with why they are on their way out. Now that Belichek has proved our QB cant throw it down field, this is what you can expect every week. Football really is not that complicated to understand gentlemen.
 
That is such BS.

Tannehill has carved up many a defense so far and will again in the future. The issue wasn't them stacking the box. It was we tried to get cute and take everything to the outside, which is the Patriots bread and butter. You can't do that. You have to attack them rushing up the gut and we didn't do that. Then we had to abandon it totally when we were down 19-0. We got away from what works for us and tried to be something we are not, a finesse team. We needed to pound them and keep Brady off the field by eating clock. We didn't do that.
 
Our O-line didnt help any. It's hard to throw the ball down field when you cant get any protection. Our dink and dunk didnt work as well as Brady's.

"Carved up" LMAO show me one good D he "Carved up" ill wait............
 
First drive of the game summed up Lazor's entire career here... Run for 8 on first *abandons running game for rest of game*
 
Tennessee Defense is better than the Pats. Not even close! They are #2 or #1 against the Pass. This is BS! Tannehill started off very hot with Matthews. I rather have a Rb like Lewis than Miller. Miller can't make ppl miss and he makes the wrong cuts most of the times. Last week's game he was lucky enough that the Texans couldn't tackle and had wide open lanes that any RB could see. I bet any RB would of put 100 yards in that game.

Only scoring drive of the game is when they actually got away for the 5 yards throws and let Tannehill throws down the field...so yeah nice try
 
Well we "couldn't" pass the ball either. Lazor abandoned the run again whether we "couldn't" or not bc we sure as heck weren't doing anything passing the ball

He did just have 25 straight completions to set an NFL record.

The Average yards traveled past the line of scrimage on those passes was 2.8 yards. You let Brady do that he completes 250 in a row easy!! Dont let stats fool you boss, trust your eyes.

What's in that fragrance?
 
Anybody notice the last 2 weeks the big runs were behind Billy Turner and James. Once James was gone the run game was gone. Thats not an excuse, its a fact. Fox cant move a DE like James. The whole offensive game plan can't survive one injury on the line. What I'm trying to say is I am pleased with our o-line depth.
 
You can't expect RT to go 18-19 every single game... Lazor puts his entire offense on RT's shoulders. To be able to spread the ball around to his receivers/tight ends the middle has to be softened by some runs... Like how Pats did Miami. Runs for 10 yards, 18 yards, 8 yards then throws to Gronk. That's how you do it. It's football 101.
