The terms"hell bent" and "stubborn" imply repeated persistent attempts to do something beyond the point of diminishing returns.

It certainly didn't apply to throwing deep, or even intermediate routes.

I agree there were plays that should have been made on the short passes that weren't, and I have no doubt that had a negative impact on later playcalling.  

However, barring a miraculous recovery by Robinson or a trade for a LT, Wells is our LT.  We can't simply not attack down field the remaining thirteen weeks.

And I am not saying that the team won't throw downfield in the future. But the combination of having two starters out, one of them a late scratch, as well as a depleted running game and going up against the Tennessee Front Seven makes deep drops a dangerous idea. 

I make no excuses for anyone here, but I'm betting that the ol' playbook was dialed way way down in order to deal with all of the above. Ostensibly, the short passing game would have overcome some of those limitations but it did not happen.
I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!
