You guys may not like the play calling, but we HAVE to establish the run to have any chance at a successful passing game. I don’t mind this approach at all

On that third down stuff, looked like our OL interior completely broke down.

Three and out BS! Hunter needed to run that ball! Still,we got this game. Get Anderson back in there! He is quick and hits the hole fast!

Should we blame the failed 3rd and 1 conversion on a “stale and boring” play call from McCall or is that the fault of poor execution from the OL? Players need to EXECUTE or there is nothing the coaches can do.

How many years now in which the defense plays their hearts out and the offense can't get moving?

Hope we win this won, but not if the defense spends 3/4s of the game on the field.

That one was squarely on the o line. Lucky it wasn't a TO.

So far this year, opposing defenses have guessed well on what he are going to try on third and short. Too many opposing players in the our backfield. Need to call plays outside of our usual tendancies. Either that, or become the best blockers in the world.

It would help if the OL actually blocked someone.

Its a trade off. Do you open the playbook while it is still a close game, or do you keep it conservative?

The only first downs we have are when we don’t run up the gut on first and 2nd down. Run run pass is 0-4 so far

Ps - forgot drake run my bad
