Can someone explain to me why were are going 20 yards down field to Dez? That didn't make any sense. That was the difference in getting 7 to begin the game and settling for 3. We were moving the ball perfectly with our usual offense. Then we decide to do that. That's more of a play for 2nd and 2, not 3rd and 2. On that down, we should either be running Zeke, maybe some zone read action with Dak/Zeke or a quick chain mover to one of the WRs. Something safe.
Move the chains, control tempo and get time off the clock to limit Rodgers' possessions. I felt this play was critical. I had a bad feeling come over me when we had to settle for 3. That's a win for GB because now we will be playing catch up all game. And they get the ball to start the 2nd half. This went exactly how they wanted.
I felt all game we just didn't look to have the same identity of what got us here. Linehan tried to get too cute.
