    I'm not blaming anybody.  I've never seen an NFL team as ravaged by injuries as I witnessed yesterday.

    There was a point we had about 20 guys down, and it was absolutely shocking that we kept the game that close.

     

    Losing Mitch Morse prompted multiple bad snaps, costing us at least 3 points.  It also forced us into shotgun later in the game, which limited us in the Red Zone.  Then we lost Spencer Brown to heat stroke.  Then our backup center Greg Van Roten.  Then Ryan Bates.  One more injury and we would have been playing a Tight End or Fullback at one of the Guard/Tackle spots.  And that's just the O-Line.

     

    It was clear Gabriel Davis wasn't anywhere near ready to play, and probably should have sat.  On the first drive, we lost his backup Jake Kumerow to an ankle injury.  That pretty much destroyed our ability to stretch the field.  Then Dawson Knox got hurt.  As the game wore on, Stefon Diggs and Isaiah McKenzie were constantly going down.  On much of the final drive, Josh had nobody to throw to but Quinton Morris and the running backs.

     

    To the bold: Assuming Bass makes the FG, there's the difference in the game.

  2. If we're reflecting on the entire season, the losses to PIT and JAX can't be ignored (the Jags game sticks out in my mind so much). The conservative play calling needs to go; play to your team strengths - which right now is Josh.  Make sure the team is prepared each week and know that on any Sunday, any team can be beaten by any team.  That's on coaching.

     

    All that being said, I did enjoy the game last night.  Sucks we lost in that fashion, but, man, what a game.

  3. He may have evolved with being more aggressive, but his clock management at the end of games still sucks.  That was some of the worst.  He had timeouts, why not use at least one of them to get his team in order and calm down to run a good couple of plays.

     

    I was OK with him going for it on 4th down.
