Exactly how many runs failed because they were playing up close to the line? We gave up on it VERY quickly.
Go watch Holmes' carries prior his breakout in OT. He had two or three good runs, but most were for minimal gains or losses.
And do you want to continue to run your starting QB, who the offense is totally built around, into 9 and 10 men all game? Cuz if you do, you have no right to criticize Bryan Stinespring for doing the same thing over and over and over.
To hunz,
I liked our safeties. Went back and watched a bunch of plays on DVR and they were in good spots. With the TO, they have run responsibility as well and get coaxed up. I think that we will be devastating against the pass this year with essentially four big cornerbacks out there that like to hit, but with the TO, they got a caught up occasionally but still looked good.
