When a team plays 8/9 in the box they are playing roulette. If the other team finds just one gap in your front it’s going for big yards. Luckily for us we had the two best players on the field yesterday in Tucker and Shrader and they both managed to find just one gap and take it to the house for six. That was the only difference between first and second half that I I could see… nothing seemed to change from a strategy perspective. I don’t think you can credit the punt return with a strategy change, unless the strategy change was to tell Jackson he needs to actually try to return the ball instead of fair catching every single time. I did see a bit more five wide and tempo in the second half, but we saw that in the first half too… the team just executed it in the second.

The consistent theme in the in game thread in  the first half was that Dino was getting outcoached… in my opinion we tried the same game plan as last week but this time the offense didn’t execute. O-line missed on blocks, all the false starts, receivers couldn’t get open and Shrader was just bad. What is a coach supposed to do in this situation? Unfortunately they don’t have a magic butter to order new players when our current players are just having poor games.
