How did Moss become "the short yardage guy" he's 2 pounds heavier than Singletary?

What kind of rotation did we even have today? If it was a rotation why am I seeing Addison all day (missing tackles and getting penalties) and not seeing any of our draft picks, not once.

Well I don't think the Saints are going to throw for 300 yards and 3 TD's on us so if they win it will mean that either Kamara had huge game or Allen threw it to the Saints all night. Keep those two things from happening and we should be able to pull this one out.

I watched the game. Most of the turnovers were not under duress. The line was run blocking reasonably well. Allen was hurried at times but most of his bonehead plays he made after holding the ball way to long and throwing places he shouldn't have been throwing. From the first pick (granted it looked like PI) to the fumble that Motor picked up Allen largely made some bad choices or held the ball too long instead of taking what the defense was giving.

Both Dallas and the Chiefs are looking just like the Bills on offense. Throw every down. Probably could and should be running the ball more but just stubbornly thinking your QB should have it in his hand to the point that you actually make his job harder because the defense is counting on this and coming every single play.

So we are basically the 2008 Colts .............

You can get run on and still win a game but not if you turn the ball over 4 times. There are things you can overcome. Turnovers will kill you.

Finesse team or not I think we could win games like this just like we could have won the Titans game but what you can't be is a team that turns the ball over.

If I hear number one defense one more time I'm going t puke. We can give passing teams a hard time. If it's a running team we are in trouble and if they are a running team that plays great defense Allen will lose his mind turn the ball over 3 times. Even not stopping the run we can still be in these games (like the Titans game). We just aren't making the plays that are there to be made.

Well we are going to get a big dose of what we can't seem to stop (running football teams). So we run the gauntlet and we show exactly what we are.

The way this team is built it starts with the QB so Josh needs to get much better at ball security. Next we need much much better execution and far fewer penalties. Even with Taylor running all over us i still think we are in this game if don't turn it over multiple times and get flagged everytime we have them in 3rd down situations.

That Hines carry should have been another 3 yard loss.

Stevensen on the Pats is licking his chops.

How many day one draft picks do we have out there getting their butts handed to them on the D line.

I'm not worried about getting a rb. We need to get Star and Edwards back and stop turning the ball over multiple times a game. Josh needs to get the ball out on schedule a much higher percent of the time.

Wouldn't matter if we only gave him 9 carries a game. Our problem (crazy I know) isn't that we can't run the ball. In many cases we just don't seem to try.

If you can stop the run I still don't think Wentz is great but we never came close to proving that.

Couldn't see that coming ................ Taylor 5 TD's ......... stat that.

Same play we've missed 2 or 3 times this game and they run for a first down even before the penalty.

This is not the O line. Josh still loses his mind after holding the ball for longer than 3 seconds.

Taylor is shifty like Singletary, fast like Brieda and he's carrying 20 more pounds and drags people another 4 yards on every play.

To stop the run you need at least on big guy with attitude wreaking the game. A DE, DT, or a LB who just plays in the backfield all day. Someone on the D line should be this guy. We've invested a ton in the D line yet no one stands out as a pass rusher or run stopper. None of them are bad but none of them are changing games either.

Watching the replay he posterized Wallace.

Wow .......... again player execution.

Not sure. Hard to fault the defensive calls when you keep getting penalties to keep drives going and the kick returner coughs the ball up for an easy TD.
