Pierre Thomas: "That's Our Whole Focus, To Win The Game"

PT needs to take this whole team on his shoulders and carry them down the field, because the rest of them ain't doing squat right now.

I really don't understand why, when the offense goes into its patented 3 and out mode in the 2nd or 3rd quarter, why don't they just give the ball to Thomas a few more times, and let him carry the load; have him bash into some people, push them back, make some people miss, which will calm everybody on the offense down and get something going. Instead, whenever the momentum shifts against us, they keep going with these jittery, crazy pass plays where the O-line falls apart, screens thrown into the ground and hasty checkdowns short of the first down marker, and we end up going 3 and out or stalling. There have been a couple of opportunities in both these games, when it first starts slipping away from us, where I have been really screaming for them to just CALM THE **** DOWN and let Pierre take over and do his thing, and for whatever reason they haven't done it. We have all seen Pierre step up and TAKE OVER games before, with our own two eyes.
