- Not finding a way to get Taysom involved was criminal. He needed more plays at HB and WR/TE.
- Carr's accuracy wasn't too bad tonight until it went awry after halftime. And he didn't get the weird jittery thing as much. But he still needs to step up in the pocket, it was wide open all night to step up in the pocket or scramble to salvage the play.
- OL pass blocking wasn't too bad all things considered, but the run-blocking has become a big nothingburger.
- Pass rush was horrid. Granderson was running on fumes on a short week, and Cam is a shell of his former self (with the ankle partially to blame).
- Our block-shedding on run support was terrible. It was never more evident than the Puka run where he broke Adebo's tackle and even with his momentum stopped no one could get off a darn block.
- Lousy vanilla play calls on 4th downs where we needed better calls or just not go for it.
- We don't use near enough motion on our offense.
- Adebo and Jordan Howden and our special teams (punt block) seem to be only bright spots I can think of.
You speak as if any of that matters to ownership. It doesn’t.
