The inexplicable part was not being able to generate a pass rush AND refusing to make JD’s life hard. We rarely brought extra pressure all night and JD felt extremely comfortable, to the point of almost perfection.
Yeah i thought with the eye test well stopped the runs up the middle reasonably well. Maybe the defense was so focused on shoring that up everything else fell apart.
The very thing that killed some of our offensive drives throwing at the line of scrimmage we let absolutely kill us. I mean we let 2 throws at the line turn a 2nd and 21 into a 4th and 4. Not to put it all on Dax but he is trash at tackling. Need someone to put they're foot in the dirt and attack downhill.
