this was the game, have Zeke in the game is bad , but you had 3 timeouts and 4 down territory and you have 46 yards to go you can still run the ball, not reason not to have Pollard in the game and run him on second down and pick up 3 or 4 if not more.

Rushing a play before the two minute warning was just dumb.

Also, as you said, with three timeouts you had the ability to run the ball a couple of times, maybe hit them with a Pollard draw.

Nobody can convince me otherwise that it was a piss poor effort by the players and the OC.

Yes. Incredibly we were given this opportunity after San Fran manhandled us all game long.
Dak and the entire offense **** the bed on this drive when it mattered most.
And it was on all of them.
The line gave up a sack and pressure on at least two of the plays.
The play caller ignored the threat of a run.
And dak and the receivers just plain failed

The fact your most explosive player was not in the game you have 3 timeouts with 200 minutes left you can run the ball. No reason to rush a play before the two minute warning jsut bad coaching all around 2 minutes is so long in the NFL I just dont get it.

I don't know why they always defer the kickoff, that first 7-0 and then the 3 and out showed how the game would go, they played from behind the whole game.

You left out BY FAR the number one game-killer play.

We threw an interception in our own redzone that directly led to 7 points. About as close to a pick 6 as you can get.

So shallow..lol any analysis that doesn't take into account the drive stalling penalties isn't an analysis. Carry on

And got it back. You can't have drive stalling penalties when possessions are limited in a game.

We scored 7 pts in 3 qtrs, and you're looking at one drive?

Pollard didn't look very explosive yesterday. I think people are forgetting he was coming off an injury and I doubt he was 100%, regardless of what the team said.

I'd argue 14 penalties, bad clock management, OL and DL getting trucked, poor play calls, and execution were ALL reasons the team lost. So it was a complete team failure. Coaches and players failed.

He was still a better player than Zeke yesterday

Based on what? He didn't have enough of a sample size to say he was anything yesterday.
I seen Zeke play, thats all you the sample you need. Jaquan Hardy was a better player than Zeke yesterday

I really want to see the all22 on this drive. This was the opportunity to steal the game.
