The Pittsburgh game was a fluke. A few balls don't bounce your way, the defense was banged up and they go down 22-0 in a flash. Hard to come back from in those circumstances.

The playoffs don't work that way. If we are going to make a playoff run, we have to expect a game or two where the opposing offense kicks it up a gear. Like most game managers, we're built well for the regular season, but not for a playoff run unless Alex can adjust to game conditions. Watching Alex try to outmanaging Brady in desperation mode last year was brutal to watch.
I'm not a pure Alex hater. I wasn't crazy about his play second half of last year, but I thought it was acceptable. But he's reverted to the same overconservative BS this year.
