Seems to me that the playcalling was suspect in the game vs. the Falcons.
Why were we constantly burned by the TE Alge Crumpler? Hasn't the TE been a huge problem for us in the past? I hope they have something to prevent this from being a weakness of our defense this year.
On offense, although Mcknight did a good job on 3rd down, why did Norv consistently call plays that were 4-5 yards shorter than what we need to make the first down? I hope this isn't something new Miami will be doing this year because it will hurt us.
Hopefully these are just small problems that will get corrected during the regular season. Covering the TE has been a weakness on our defense for a while...I HOPE our defense isn't so aggressive that this continues to be a problem.
