On one hand, we committed SIX turnovers and only lost by a singled TD.

On the other hand, well, there really is no other hand.

We played badly. The worst we have played all year and were still only a TD away from tying the game. No team in the NFL can commit SIX turnovers in a game and expect to win it.

But, I will say that one thing I think Shane has to change is his perchance to ignore the rush in preference to the pass.

We saw it last game against the Titans at the end of the 2nd quarter. We stalled on two offensive series when we did not have a single rush attempt until a 3rd and 16 at our own 24 yard line. While JT did gain 8 yards on the run, it was not a serious attempt to gain the first down.

And against Pittsburgh, the rush went right out the window in the 2nd half. Once the PIT defense knew we were going to be one dimensional, they could tee up blitz packages that we could not block.

Worst showing of our O-Line this season but they were besieged.

I hope we can get a win against the Falcons and go into our bye week 8-2 and get some things straigtened out but Daniel Jones is best when he is not asked to play hero ball. Against PIT, they asked that of him and it showed.
