Have to remember we play these guys in the regular season... There was no Blitz package for this game... The was nothing special at all.... Most teams do this if they play each other in the regular season... Not Worried..

I was hoping to have less or no blitz packages so I could see these guys play straight up, and stop the run. Texans whipped that ask...and good. Missed tackles galore, cut back lanes wider than I-10. You can't stack eight on a good team anyway, you just have to play man-up. We didn't get it done. Didn't stop the run or the pass. 1 deer in the headlights sack. By the way, wasn't too impressed with the 49er effort everyone was ranting about - giving up almost 5yds a pop even if you discount the backup QB romping for nearly 60. This week its about 6.5 ypc. Pitiful. Perhaps its just a setup, smoke and mirrors to throw everybody off.
