I saw a coaching staff that was, again, unprepared to start a game. They went with the same standard gameplan hoping it would be enough. Guess what? It wasn't. At least, this game had adjustments at halftime and went to a more friendly Dak offense. They moved him out of the pocket more and good things happened. It seems that it takes an awful lot of bad gameplay to make those adjustments. I would like our coaches to be more proactive and have a plan B ready to fire sooner than later.
I would give Collins more time, he has the ability to be a good RT. We knew it would be a process there.
The defense had its problems but Lawrence and Lewis were not among them. We need better LB and Safety play if they want to be serious contenders. I am satisfied with their overall performance, learning curves and all.
Garrett and Linehan need to start out more aggressive and close out halves that way. Scheme around your opponents weaknesses, not make them stop you using the same predictable plays. Always look for that edge but they do not, or so it seems that way anyways.
