Re: A pass 1st offense weekly lament
Dallas did a great job stopping the run. I just wish we had not completely abandoned it, but he did try to adapt on the fly.
I just hope we reset and go back to trying the run first in the next game. We have a potent running game which can really make Rex's job easier. When he has to carry the load, that's when "Bad Rex" comes out...like that fumble at the end.
The running game looked great in Weeks 1 and 2, and Rex made fewer errors. As long as he's under center, we need to try to be a run-first team to set up the play-action for Rex, which he excels at.
Have to credit the Dallas D on stopping the run. That was the key to the win for them. (along with Rocca's blunder on the FG)
