-But Thomas's bomb was either Cross or Flowers (95% sure it was Flowers) not taking their deep-third and sitting on the out pattern. That's a mental fuck-up, not the call.

-Same with Kirk's bomb. If I remember right, Jones looked liked he had man but thought he had help over top. But Blackmon got caught looking at a crosser and and Kirk blew by.

-Both runs were fucking embarrassing. On the 19 yarder, which was set up by a 50-something yard punt return... JAX blocked it well, but Cross had a clean shot and tried to tackle him at the sternum and fell off, same thing with Womack, then Blackmon tried to help and whiffed or knocked Womack off.

-The long run, we had 9 in the fucking box. The front side gobbled up the fake to the full-back. The weakside, Cross crashed in and sealed the edge, so Bigsby had to cut upfield... Latu overpursues and slips a little, EJ Speed does the exact same thing... So now you have Cross, Latu, and Speed all stacked like dominos with one giant hole opened up. Bigsby stiff-arms the fuck out of Blackmon (another missed tackle) and he's gone.

-Final drive was also multiple missed tackles setting up the field goal. Plus there was zero pass rush all game and a couple more 20+ yard plays. Players complaining about how hot and humid it was.

Here's the sense I'm getting with Bradley. I think his X's and O's are fine, but maybe he's got the nice guy thing going on like Reich did. And guys aren't uncomfortable enough when they fuck up. I hope not and it gets better.

The injuries suck, yes. And it will help a ton to get some of them back. But a lot of these fuck-ups are from your vet guys, too, not just backups.
they just cut flowers so hopefully that sends the right message. still the whole plan for the secondary was fucking dumb
