Fair point. Can't really blame him for first missed XP, then.

We've done that a lot this year, one of the biggest issues with this defense.

Alright, 5-2 with a tough one coming up next week. Wish we could replay week 1, but so far this season has gone about as expected given the schedule through this point.

Its in the past. Who wouldnt a second chance when you really screwed up the perfect opportunity

Always liked Wilkins, just felt if he got the carries he would produce. And of course, fix the fumbling issue.

I would argue that it is easily the biggest problem for our D, and today it was worse than normal. Typically we give up first downs on 3rd and 10+, but today we gave up huge chuck plays of 73 and 24 yards on 3rd and 15+. It didn't really matter today, but in a closer game and/or against a better opponent those plays would have been back breakers.

Don't know if it's his vision, that we don't telegraph the run as bad, or the opponents D doesn't sell out to stop the run as much, but Wilkins seems to get much more out of his carries than Taylor does at this point in their careers. I hope Wilkins gets the start at RB next week.

How often do we throw the ball on Taylor’s in the backfield. And on the one play on fourth down they had him running sideways and then he had to turn up the field. It was a terrible call..He’s a hammer you don’t swing it sideways.

Give Wilkins credit he’s a downhill runner. He’s not afraid I’ll put his head down and get what he can. He’s not pretty he’s not flashy, he just goes downhill
