The coverage dictated that when they stopped running almost exclusive man coverage. Zone slows it down and forces you to hit underneath. I am sure everyone would have been happy had wade Phillips stayed in his man coverage and AJM would have thrown for 400.
We still took shots but didn't connect due to execution errors.
You need to be able to run at an 8 man box sometimes.
Now if you said we went conservative vs the 49ers last week. Yes it was blantantly obvious marvin pulled the reins back on hue and the offense . But this week I didn't see it.
Pretty obvious we weren't going to pick up diddly squat in the 2nd half - TE was open and yet we only
threw to Kroft twice in the 2nd half - Gio short screens over the middle was there.
They clearly took away the run and forced McCarron to beat them, but Hue outsmarts himself again running
straight into the buzzsaw of doom time and time again.
With this O-line, we're not going to have success running against 8 in the box.
