I'm saying that if you bracket and blanket everyone else downfield, we can eat you alive on plays just like that one.
What I'm saying is that you literally cannot take away everything from this offense. We just have too many ways to beat you.
The only way we lose is if we come out like we did against Houston, and just shit down our collective legs for a quarter.
I suspect the team was a little tight; trying too hard.
I don't think that happens again.

Execute. Perfect execution can stop enough plays in any given drive to force a punt.
Watch the Watkins TD - that play was defended
well. If the NCB doesn't just !@#$ up the coverage there and fall down, there's just about nothing available on that play.
Now granted, it's impossible to just call the right play every time, but do it often enough and you'll force 4-5 punts over the course of a game and it might be enough.
You're right - nobody's holding this offense to a significant degree. But if they can just stall things a bit they can call it a win.
