Yeah well we also could have not played scared predictable ass football on 1st and 2nd down. Maybe we wouldn’t have been in a 3rd and long if we just stuck to literally what we had been doing all game and what just landed us an 8 minute drive the drive before. Nope, of course we didn’t.

Not excusing him slowing on the route, that wasn’t great… I just hate that this is what’s being talked about on that final possession.

I'm never going to understand changing how you've been playing all game because of the clock and the score.

I think that was my biggest complaint about lovie, is that at the end of games where we were up by a score, he'd go into prevent defense and inevitably give the other team a chance to tie or win it because we abandoned the gameplan that got us the lead late in the game in the first place.

I don't want to be a coach, but it seems to me like there are two obvious things every good coach should be able to do.

  1. Create a scheme that fits your players, highlighting their strengths while minimizing their weaknesses

  2. Stick to the plan if it's working. See it through to the end.

And this coaching staff does neither. I quit a high paying job recently because the people above me couldn't do either 1 or 2

We weren't in a prevent defense.
