This game showed the value of run-stopping front four. We can’t say the FO didn’t try to get one as they signed Poe and McCoy but it just didn’t work out and it cost us several games this season. IMO, fixing our from four is too priority, esp since fixing the coaching staff will likely not happen.

This was worse than MM not challenging that catch

At least you can spin that and say upstairs let him down.


KM really screwed us there. O yea and shoutouts to Terrence Steel and Brandon Knight too.

Glad ill never be forced to watch these bums ever again

Thing is.. if you're going to go empty backfield you HAVE to make sure all the pass rushers are accounted for. That's on the QB to see a guy lined up outside AND a guy lined up on the tackle to know that means one of them is going to be unblocked.. So you either call timeout or change the play.. But you do NOT just drop back and HOPE somebody picks up one of those guys..

Makes you wonder if offensive game preparation was hurt by the Boise stuff. Reminds me of Richard taking off and interviewing for a head coaching job before our playoff game and the defense was terrible in that game.

That’s why you don’t run an empty backfield set and pass on first and goal from the 7. It’s like our coaching staff goes braindead.
You let Williams run clean and free to the QB and I don't care what the formation is with Dalton back there.

Me too
Why hire McCarthy if he is not running the offense ?
Makes no sense

To a degree I understand why McCarthy was not more in charge of the offense this year.. He is still learning the offense himself.. I fully expect him to be a lot more involved next year and if he isn't I will help pack up his house so he can move out of Dallas.. Moore's red zone play calling needs to go.. Period..

A veteran QB has to see that and either change the play or call timeout. You can't just sit there and let the free runner come hit you..

It wouldn’t necessarily happen that way with an extra blocker (RB) in the game, or better yet if we had ran the damned ball. They did the one thing anyone with a brain knows you shouldn’t do.

We have a great trio of receivers, 2 average tes, a bruiser at RB and another Rb who can make plays in space. No excuse to struggle in the RZ

That's our future HC you're talking about. MM is just a placeholder to keep the critics down to a minimum.

Oh well, this team always comes up small in big situations. At least they’re consistent.

You mean like when Pollard was in pass protection and Martinez ran through him like a sheet of paper on his way to a sack?
