I think they’re playing and coaching scared a little bit. Burrow doesn’t look comfortable back there. He’s rushing throws. That pick play on 3rd down he gunned it to the slant when the wheel was open for a TD.

Even with the offensive line struggling, you still have to attack the defense in a balanced way. You have to take more deep shots than they did. This game was within striking distance before the pick six. Gotta find a way to march down the field. The play calling wasn’t good enough. The offensive line wasn’t either.

Dalton going down put us in a position to win. Gotta take advantage.

Except he had time. He had a pocket. He caused at least 2 of the sacks by just standing there with the ball for 4+ seconds. The game plan was flat out stupid. WAY too many empty backfields; way too much shotgun. No screens, no mass protects, no play calls until very late to actually take the top off - and when they FINALLY called it it worked.
