The bracket was coming for Chark eventually, and they were not prepared for it. Minshew needed to come off him a lot quicker.
Westbrook and Conley needed to step up and beat the one on ones and they didnt. I wanted to see more horizontal plays for Westbrook. Utilize our speed on the edges.

Live and learn. They have to adjust and Minshew has to navigate in the pocket to find time to make a throw and keep his eyes downfield. Just needs to settle down and navigate the pocket rather than escaping the pocket.
DeFillipo has to protect him from those moments and scheme up some quick timing plays and get the pass game into a rhythm.

If DeFilippo is guilty of anything, it's having too much confidence that the bolded was going to happen in our favor. He even stated it openly in a wednesday presser. 

now that he's seen the result of a contained Minshew vs quality man coverage, he'll absolutely need to work on ways to scheme receivers and TEs open. 

I do feel he could have made more adjustments than he made in the second half, but I did view our offensive struggles yesterday as primarily a result of poor execution and good defense than a failure by Flip. Interested to see how he  (and Minshew) respond moving forward.

Each of our WR's played poorly.

Chark - ran the "wrong route" on that curl against outside leverage he needs to break back to the inside, the ball was placed perfectly for where Chark SHOULD have been, that mental error is on Chark and led to the drive killing pick

Conley - It felt like he created 0 seperation and would just whine to the ref every time the pass got D'd that there should've been a flag, yea a few of them were legitimate gripes but you need to be physical and go get the ball, finish the play, make the catch.

Westbrook - On the crosser he stopped running, would've been an easy completion with room to run but he settled down (I know find the hole in the zone etc.) but he should've kept running. Also had a few drops

Lee - Didn't really have a problem with him, he's a great blocker and has been CLUTCH on 3rd downs and "must have" conversions for us ... i'd like to see more of him and less of Conley.

Going forward I want to see Chark at the X, Lee at the Z & Westbrook at the Y working the slot. Given O'Shaughnessy's season ending injury & Swaim's concussion (until Oliver plays he's a non-factor here) I think we should switch to a 3 Receiver base set with Seth Devalve as a FB in the I who can motion out like an H-Back to help our young OT's block on the edge.
