Quote:Olson talked about that screen play to end the half today. Said the goal was to get in range for a field goal like how they did in a game vs the Colts last season. Said the problem with the play was alignment. Ugh. Really Olson? The problem is you run the damn play every 3 plays, they knew that it was coming. This guy is so stubborn, can't wait to see how many screens are thrown this week. 

I know everyone here is hating on Gus, but Olson is the absolute worst. I'd say the most offensive thing Bradley has done was to hire this idiot, second to promoting Wash. The fact that Greg shows zero remorse or even acknowledgment of the futility of this play is mind numbing to me. That play, from conception, was failure incarnate. We were down 21 zip, and we want to waste the last 9 seconds of the half preparing to possibly kick a FG with a kicker who's questionable on his best day? And we do that with another screen pass? With A-Rob and Hurns, and Lee, and Thomas, and a QB who excels outside the pocket we couldn't come up with a single version of a corner route, let alone take a strike for the end zone? Maddening.
