Completely agree JJ22. We should of prepared for this, Mixon clearly is not the problem this year and has been playing like the
RB I hoped to see last year. Why make Burrow throw more than he has to if he is not 100% and agile? Should of adjusted and
used different run fits as you said as we aren't weak there injury wise.

Not wrong at all Millhouse. It is what the coaches should of done. The playcalling isn't as much the problem as the execution and
not preparing for an injured Burrow. More runs, more Slants, more Play Action etc.

Figured Joe did, thanks Wyche. I saw us down 17-7 in the 2nd quarter and once again playing from behind. To come back and
make it a 24-27 game against a Lamar ran Offense where he is throwing good out of the pocket certainly isn't bad. Still need to
watch the game when I have time but I saw a couple dimes Lamar threw that I honestly haven't seen out of him before...
Scared me a bit. There was nothing Chido could do about that one TD.
