There were plenty of plays that had me scratching my head.  I have no idea how they thought it would work.   And then when there was a well designed/blocked play, it seemed like there was poor decision making..

Just before 7:00 min in the half, they line up in the stick.   Elmore barrels through a well blocked hole up the middle...With 2 RB's behind him.. Lo0ked like 10 yards, but he doesn't get the ball.  It goes to Neal, 11 yards back, and he goes around the right, into open space, against 3 unblocked defenders.(with a FB and another RB on the field).    They run it again, Elmore rightfully gets the ball, goes for 6 up the middle... They run it again... This time, instead of Adams getting the guy in front of him, he doubles up McGloster's guy, giving the DT a clear path to Elmore, for a loss.   If that was Adams line call, I would have thought Elmore would have been blocking that DT, with the RB getting the ball going to the right of the center...

The communication/design/decision making on run plays was poorly executed.   I mention that last series, because I saw so many yards left on the field.  There are yards there for the taking.  I particularly hated the pitch to Neal - 33 feet back.  Elmore was already through the hole before Neal even had the ball.
