It says it all to me that you've got a week and a half to go into a divisional game... a must win to have any chance of salvaging a season...
You're doing it with a backup QB, who is quite bad by backup standards... You know the defence isn't shutdown enough to carry a game on their own...
And you run your #1 RB 8 times for 16 yards.
I appreciate you wouldn't just stick with a run game that manages 2 YPC.... but 8 attempts? That's not even trying to get the run game going. If it doesn't work then sack it off later in the game, not from the kickoff. Why are we not trying a different guy at RB either? If we have no faith Mixon will get yards... try somebody else?
We absolutely need to find better players to improve the run game... I don't believe our guys are good enough. But we had to at least TRY and get it going today, and we ran 8 plays. Atrocious planning for this game, and they had extra time to come up with this as well. What's the logic Zac?
