We didn't play the panthers every game.

This is a good bit on Reich too. Week 5 we were able to beat the chiefs by running the ball and playing keep away from the opposing offense. This worked, but stopped being a long term solution when our receivers started dropping.

Teams knew that the combination of Brissett's weaknesses and our inexperienced receivers allowed them to just play the run and dare us to pass. As soon as they took away the run game, the wheels fell off.

What I didnt see this year is an effective screen game to take advantage of Wlikins. 2018 was Pag's last year, and we were screaming for it then. We should be making better use of our athletic OL to open up the short pass / screen game outside to negate the dearth of receiving talent and the skills of Brissett.

There was a stat I cant find where we run the ball on 90% of our 2nd and long snaps. Not scouting ourselves is a mistake the Pags regime made over and over and over.

Reich is supposedly big into analytics so if they aren't self analyzing then they are morons

Appreciate the fan chat. I was once asked if I could sit down while we were on defense at a patsy game. Fans? I miss the wave and the eventual unevenness between the upper and lower level.

I had that happen to me once. The person looked like they had to be dropped into their seat with a crane.

1. Brisset isn’t a starter. The guy would be 3rd string on some NFL teams.

2. Depleted WR Corp with a QB that isn’t a starter.

3. Very young defense. I believe we were starting more rookies than any team.


The fact this team has won as many games as it has with Brisset and a depleted receiving Corp is actually amazing. With a Luck or Manning at QB you would have a hard time finding a game we lose this year. Maybe the Saints.

Brisset at QB is 5-6 losses for this team no matter how you cut it.

We upgrade our QB we are back in the mix.

I don't think anythign was stopping the Saints that day. Some games are just like that. Team does everything right, like us yesterday.

They KNEW the Colts couldn't get to Brees with the pass rush of just 4. So they played to their strength and the Colts weakness.
