Perhaps my expectations were a bit high.

While Saunders calls the plays, Gibbs sets the game plan and he and Campbell basically said in the postgame that they had a conservative gameplan. Gibbs even said, 'We probably could have taken a few more shots out there, but we were happy with what we were doing.'
Campbell was asked by Kelli Johnson outside the locker room about not throwing downfield at all & he alluded to the gameplan not having many of those plays in it this week.
I don't really care to see JC dropping back and heaving it 30 yds downfield every series, but he's got to take 2-3 shots a game and not completely ignore the middle of the field all game. Success in today's NFL is 12-16 yds downfield over the middle but we seem to always be focused outside the hashes and up the sidelines..
