Smug Doug's "tell of two halves" also pissed Hicken off, LOL. "We made more plays in the 1st half, they made more plays in the 2nd half". Yeah, we know, [BLEEP] face, it's because you decided to take your foot off the gas which is beyond most of us because you're out there [BLEEP] gambling on 4th down inside your own territory. 

Where is the aggressiveness in the offensive play calling? 4th and short? Fine, alright, cool, go for it. But a [BLEEP] pitch play to Etienne? After they just shut it down on the previous play? I want the ball in my $55M QB's hands there and I want him eyeing one of those multi-million dollar making receiving options you invested in between Kirk, Davis, Engram and the rookie Thomas Jr. 

It's coming to a head here soon. Watch what happens if they lose to Cleveland on Sunday and it's the same exact offensive story again. Same [BLEEP] one. We'll probably win a close one this time.

You guys are so far down Overreaction Boulevard that you can't see straight. And of course 1010XL is bashing the play calling, they have to feed the masses.

Usually I’m with you with regards to “not overreacting to one week” but this overall theme has continued from last season.

Players not executing in crucial moments. Big drops, missed blocks, OL letting pressures in crucial moments and overall odd play calling from whoever is calling plays. 4th down at your own 30 and that’s the play you call? And on top of the play call it was absolutely horrifically blocked (thanks Cam!).

So while it may seem like an overreaction to one week, it’s actually reacting to a growing trend that started in the last 3rd of last year.
