This was a good game

AJ had a fine game.  He had one bobbled snap and that was his only mistake.  He made some damn good throws against the number 1 ranked defense.  

You are so blind.  You said earlier he should have audibled, yet he never had a chance.  The throws he had in the third quarter were designed throws to RBs and TEs.  Watch him and you'll see he never looked elsewhere.  Watch the receivers and you will see they were all running across the field to try and  clear the zones.  

When we started throwing to our WRs we moved the ball but Hue was more content running into a stacked box or running side to side.  

You blame the guy in his second NFL start for not audibling yet the guy got the play late every single time and had zero time to read the defense all game long.  

The blame can be put a lot of places but not on AJ.  Otherwise you need to rewatch the game.  

I blame Hue for his ridiculous play calling.  I think when Hewitt got hurt that really screwed Hues game plan and he was left scratching his head and that's why all the play calls came in late.  Also why AJ couldn't audible out of those obvious run sellouts.  

McCarron had multiple mistakes. He really didn't make that many good throws. He looked like a backup. Someone who isn't going to turn the ball over. But also someone who isn't going to win you games.

He didn't get the play late every time. Numerous times he would leave the pocket when he should have stepped up and made a play. But he left the pocket and showed happy feet.

He needed to do presnap reads. He needed to read the defense. When it's one on one you see where your receiver is and give him a chance. Zone? McCarron couldn't tell where he should go with the ball.

Who should the blame be put on exactly? The run game put up over 100 yards on a team that allows 79 yards per game. The receivers made amazing tip toe sideline catches. The defense straight up wrecked havoc on that offensive line.

So where does the blame go? To Hue? Sorry he didn't trust a young QB to air it out against the best defense in the NFL who was showing all game he didn't know how to read zone defense DURING a play.

McCarron deserves blame. All of it? No. But the team put him in a position to win. And he didn't come through.

Hewitt was out whenever we went and scored our next TD and when we went to kick field goals. It limits your play calling, sure. But it doesn't decimate your offensive game plan to lose a fullback.

And he didn't get the play late every time. You saw people line up and they waited on snaps. McCarron didn't read the defense well. He waited to hike the ball numerous times.

Face it. McCarron is a solid backup and that's it.
