1. We sucked on specials in 1st
2. We sucked as usual in 1st quarter
Burrow was 25/34 for 348 and 2 scores (0 picks) while Mixon was 18 for 58.
Seems pretty clear who should've had the ball. This is like defending Pete Carroll for not using Beast Mode.
Agree with your reasons at the end, I'd just throw this in there as well. Agree to disagree I guess.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
