Keep airing it out and forcing our D to play 45 minutes a game, which will tire even elite defenses, or to run? He can't make the line run block better or Hunt, who led the league in rushing last year FYI, to find the gap.
This isn't a coaching issue, except maybe Sutton and our incessant prevent scheme, it's personnel. It's guys not executing. People bitch if we keep our foot on the gas "Golly gee Willigers Bobby Rae, why din't we run da clock out? Uh hee uh hee uh hue" or "God damnit Billy Jo, we dint payse an keep ur feets on dem peddles. Uh hee uh hee uh hue"

So the strip sack justifies running prevent to horrible results. And the offense going completely dry the entire second half? It is a reason but not an excuse. One thing if it were a one time deal. But this is the same pattern we saw against SD too and we can't pin that one on refs.
