We just don't make winning plays

Our stats aren't bad. We usually run a lot of plays and gain good yardage. But we just can't make a play to win a game. Dropped passes, untimely penalties, turnovers, bad play calling, missed field goals. It's some kind of intangible that we just don't have. And it's been killing us all season.

I agree. No mental toughness. I feel like the player makers don't even want the ball in their hands in crunch time

Our RB's run sideways too much

and in short yardage situations we always run out of the shotgun,
never running a power offense.

This I see as BS!

It is as if we just don't #webelieve in ourselves. I hope ark is the game that instills some confidence for that last game.

May just be the disgust talking. It just sucks seeing us be close in big games only to screw it up because we can't execute the basics.
