There are a couple of things the team will need to clean up prior to the Lions game. Our running game was basically non-existent when we exclude JD's running yards. We really need to figure out how to get BRob going, and get our Oline to open holes effectively.

Evans abused Lattimore. We gotta figure out a way to get Lattimore comfortable in the system.
IMO we need to IR BRob and start Rodriguez . . . .

Re: Playoff Victory - Postgame Thread

Awesome win! I went through the whole gamut of emotions last night. I couldn't even watch the FG attempt. I opened my eyes as Tirico was saying ...and the Washington..." then I saw it doink and didn't know right away if it went in or out... MAN!!!

Welp, we're playing with house money at this point. This next game will be the toughest this year, and probably more difficult than the potential NFC Championship game could be if they somehow pull it off this weekend.

I'm on the fence about going for it on 4th down all the time. I wanted FGs both times, but what do I know. We won, so I guess it worked!

I think the running game issues are two-fold. 1. Brob has zero vision right now. He is missing holes and not following the correct side of his blocks. It's obvious. 2. The O-line is collectively getting manhandled and missing (or slow to) their assignments. It's not sustainable. They need to figure it out if they want to have a chance this weekend.

Anyway, we can enjoy this playoff win for a few days. Can't believe it...

I've been saying for a year that Robinson lacks vision. He would also at once fall forward for a yard or two, but he no longer does that. I've said for several weeks that I'd rather use Rodriguez in his place. Granted, the o-line hasn't run blocked well in weeks; you can still sense Rodriguez is the better running back at this juncture. Give me more Rodriguez.
