It should have been Reggie right, Reggie left, Reggie up the middle, swing pass to Reggie... instead you got, Brees hitting linemen in the helmet and then getting picked off...

Even if you've got a good one the announcers will say "here comes Mr Automatic" or "he's made 14 straight from this distance or less" and boom. > My kingdom for a kicker and a punter who doesn’t make me squeamish

No NFL team fan has *ever* not worried when the kickers come out. Even if you’ve got a good one the announcers will say “here comes Mr Automatic” or “he’s made 14 straight from this distance or less” and boom.

Why can't leadfeet run the west coast? Montana? Brett Favre (during the Holmgren years)? Brad Johnson during the Tampa Bay Years? Quick recognition (to which OW alluded) is much more important than quick feet in that offense. And what’s wrong with being lumbering in that offense? Why can’t leadfeet run the west coast? Montana?

Just go with what works for your guy, as you guys noted, it's kind of damning that the biggest play of the day was a QB audible.

And who goes with a WCO from scratch anyway? Nice W though. Skins endeavored to persevere through some adversity. Good times.

Just give Jason the effing ball and let him try to win it for you. There’s entirely too much ‘game-managing’ going on. Just give Jason the effing ball and let him try to win it for you.
