If players learned to not open the flood gates on kick offs!!

I had a few other choice words.

With the line of scrimmage moved up there is no reason Morestead should not be able to kick it to the back line.

Rainy cold and windy, touchbacks were very difficult.

Can't blame Moorestedd.

I did like Mooresteads tackle on that one kick-off,,,,,think he'd look good w/ a # change in the 50's?

Yes you need to adjust as a coach. With a cold and wet ball kicking it out of the back of the endzone just wasn't happening. Perhaps Morestead kicking the ball out of the back of the endzone in other games backfired on us, because players didn't have much experience covering kickoffs (notice our punt coverage was okay this game).

Lack of adjustments and bad play calling, once again. All comes back to Payton.
