Lynch averaged 6 yards a carry today. Losman averaged 4 yards per attempt. Only a moron would argue that passing in this situation was the right play.
To take it a step further, after 14 games this team lacks an offensive identity. You would think that with two bruising runners, and a huge offensive line, this should be a running team.
Yet every opportunity that this team has a chance to establish that power game mentality, inside the five, on third and short, protecting a lead, this coaching staff has put the game in the hands of their inexperienced and incompetent quarterbacks.
Letting Lynch and the offensive line close out that game would have been huge for Lynch, especially since he took the blame for the Miami disaster.
This has to be the biggest failure of the coaching staff, the inability to develop a strength in the offense and develop it throughout the season, and the failure in recognizing who the true leaders are on this team and rewarding them.
