I personally don't think a whole lot of NFL players would risk their career or a teammates by NOT playing well.  You never know what happens next season and if you like your paycheck, you play every play best you can.  

 

That said, we ran SEVEN run plays today out of 48 total plays called.  Seven run plays for a total of eight yards.  WTH?  I don't care if we were down all game.  You're down 7 points, then 14, then 21, then it was 21-7.  It's not panic time being down 7-0 and shouldn't really change your complete play calling being down 14-0 if there's any confidence you can do anything.  I think the lack of run calls tells a tale.  These guys can't get push, then can't win their match ups, and Toby just isn't fast/elusive enough IMO.  That's what surprises me about the lack of DRob's involvement in the offense.  He's got the speed to make bad blocking turn into a gain if he can find a crease, but he's not crazy shifty either, so I dunno.  

 

I'm not watching them practice every day but the offensive line play is the worst it's been since I've been a fan here.  Sure, Henne holds the ball, doesn't identify the blitz, and stares down receivers, but plenty of other QBs do that and manage to score and move the ball.
