I think we lost for two main reasons 1.) We didn't catch the ball, 2.) We shouldn't even have been throwing the ball in the first place. I believe we had a 2:1 pass to run ratio. In conditions such as yesterday Portis and Betts each should have had 15-20 carries.
I'm not calling anyone out.

Sometimes its needed. I look at this site and there are alot of really dumb comments and posts. Some people just calling for coaching changes and bla bla bla. Totally tune those out. This is going to come down to our core gelling together and making things happen. I'm all for passing on 3rd and 2 or reverses or giving campbell more rope. But when you outplay another team and just look so badly losing you have to really wonder what to do next.
The line is banged up so just pounding on the Cardinals will not work. We need to stick with the mix it up approach and execute for gods sake! I know the conditions were bad but looking back wouldn't you have rather seen a missed 50 yarder than Betts for no gain in the flats? I know its monday morning qb but give it a shot. Conditions my ass, kick the damn ball and if you miss oh well. 4th down in the NFL is playing Russian Rulet with 4 bullets in a six chamber gun........only a matter of time til you blow your brains out like 0-2 on 4th yesterday.
We will work Arizona and get back to form on Sunday.
HAIL!!!!!
