I too was watching the game and wondering what was going on with our offense.
After the first TD and then watching our Defense play i was like, ok lets do it again. So what happened.
Well, one thing i saw was bledsoe make several bad throws in the second quarter, these are throws that would have definitely been picks if we were playing agianst better corners (like the eagles). You all saw the plays im talking about. And i started thinking, crap..stop throwing it so much, bledose is off and making bad decisions. And so playing in seattle, in the heavy rain maybe had something to do with it, i dont know, but seattle defense saw that bledsoe was off and after that it seemd like they had our number in the passing game. so in this game, im not sure opening things up would have led to better results, it seemed they had us there and so parcells pulled the reigns in cause bledsoe was almost getting picked when he threw it. And the play to end the game where he did get picked was similar to how their defense was playing us all game, just waiting for that chance to roll coverage under glenn and jump and pick that ball. they almost had ot a couple times in the forst half, then when we decided to go for it at the end it was like that safety was waiting all game for that play and jumped on it.
I will say i was disappointed with the 2 obvoius runs when we had 1st and goal inside the 10 after muffed punt. what is that rediculous fake reverse, that hasnt fooled anyone yet. trash that play. lets see more like the one where polite slid out in the flat after play action aginast the eagles. some misdirection or something.
and with 15 seconds left in regulation, not the time to try and make something happen, this team panicked. they should have maintained their cool and gone into overtime.
Still, for reasons i am not sure, the passing game was completely ineffective, and i dont think "opening the offense up" would have resulted in anything but more turnovers, its just the way this game was going.
