saywhat Pick something we can control that might let us take down these Birdheads and turn our bus around at home and salvage and re-build us some momentum. Better officiating is not an option. rolleyesdevil

I will say simplify the D calls to where it is playable faster and try to avoid the fluke blown coverages. Two scores was shockingly bad.

Running enough? Throwing enough? We see the failures clearly in hindsight just like Ski does. Are we learning anything to the point where it translates to wins? Rather than carping about how we lost, I invite us to game plan after a fashion and focus on a single thing that might represent our winning edge in a game that promises to challenge us a bunch. Focus.

We pretty much have to game plan for Arizona the way we did for the Chargers. Their run D isn't very good so we should run the ball and have success. If we can get our D players back on the field we have a good chance. That's what doomed us against the Chargers our guys got hurt and we didn't have JC. The refs bad calls and non calls didn't help but I feel we would have won with all our D players on the field.

I think if we simply NOT spot them free touchdowns (plural), then I feel much better about our chances.


There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

I agree. We have handed our games away with outrageous collapses. A healthy us might be a pipe dream. Refs are refs. Sadly.

It seems like we have backbreaking penalties on offense in stretches. Gotta avoid those because punts will be hard to come by on the other end


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
