the flaws in our game plans are pretty obvious.
we come in with our plan, and we stick to our plan, maybe with the odd wrinkle. on D today i give a mulligan because the o was so putrid and we had so many players hurt. the announcers were talking about how brady was saying he wanted to get keon more involved. every single drive where we "feature" keon early is a punt or a turnover. he caught the one nice tub, but whenever it was a clearly drawn up play for him it was cheeks. we also had screens to the wr very short, and a couple trash screens to the rbs. oh, and a jet sweep! like, they don't want to put the best players on the field and push that, not today, they wanted to assert themselves as this drop back passing team with what looked like extremely telegraphed runs, and it showed.
it's simply arrogance. any time we actually play with some balance and unpredictability we get great results. our coaches were all the way in their bags vs kc, and this one was half azzed and kinda mailed in.
i think what we are seeing, especially on offense, are players and a qb who just don't believe in what they are doing.
