Makes zero sense.

We need 2 TDs (doable) and stop HAM from scoring.  With a D that hasn't stopped anything today.  I bet Vegas has now shifted the live odds to HAM by 3.

[TecnoGenius]

Trick.plays are for the desperate.

Uh, hate to tell you...  Our D is desperate today.

Scheon hurting

Don't worry at all, he looks like that getting up after every single play.  It's his thing.

[DCM]

Annnnnnnd Zach's picked off.

[kkc60]

You can yes. But in general our D is fine.Game isn't over, need need to pile on

okay. so why the snarky reply?

Bad decision, nice play by a DL I believe.

[TecnoGenius]

HAM D already going prevent D, did you see that?  That's how they will protect those weak DBs.  So we must always have a short crossing route and dink & dunk ourselves.

So we throw deep into prevent D for an INT?  Dumb.

HAM has won the game because their main weakness is now hidden.  They are up big and can lay back.  Now we just contend with their strong DL.

we had a chance to gamble on the 44, then on 2nd and inches we dont take a shot.. need to be more aggressive

Game ain't over but that hurt bad.  Good analysis

In a track meet of points, that was kinda stick a fork in it...

Let's just get outta there healthy

[TecnoGenius]

Powell can play conservative now too.  If they get the Butler run going we're triply screwed.  It was a masterful game plan that didn't just plan the play or the Q, it planned the progression of the whole game.

See Willie getting in lanes now.  That's the proper counter.  Powell being patient.  We're doing the right thing on D.  Just too late, and not enough.

It is a big factor.  So far no injuries?

[kkc60]

one team came to win, one team is wearing white.

[The Zipp]

2nd and 7 - 0 pass rush

[Pete]

they are double teaming willie and no one else is stepping up

[TecnoGenius]

At least we can say that we completely stopped the Butler box runs.  That is a positive, with a rookie DE in.

HAM nobody WRs making every tough catch, Demski dropsies and Lawler traps.  That's the difference on Os.

I think our D is gassed and has given up.  Hall has no answer.

Looking at how bad HAM has played most games this is really pathetic they are handing it to us.
