If anything when he initially came in the playcalling was conservative because we were up 17.

Yes the kicker missed no one is debating that... 4 punts with Winston, shouldn't have come down to a last FG. Our D balled all game and then they were on the field way too much because we couldn't move the ball. Winston had his chance, but he won't be eating any W's and neither are we. Squandered a 17 point lead

So they had to punt because of Winston or because of playcalling and penalties? I’m just trying to figure out why the blame goes solely on him? Why is he, the back up, the conversation for disdain when the defense gave up the lead and the kicker pushed a kick right? Offensive line play and playcalling are this teams issue. I’m not saying the guy is a great QB but damn, he ain’t the problem.

Rez... He is part of the problem. We had the same ****ty playcalling for 3 quarters. That said, it sucks to come off the bench in a moments notice and have pressure to perform. I think I also said I feel bad for anybody who's behind center with our offensive line.

Well the play calling sucked and so did the guy executing it. Better?

He executed the same as everybody else does in Carmichael’s offense.
