Sure the players need to execute better...shit if every player executed all the time, we'd score on every play, but you have to live in the real world and understand that can't happen, so you choose plays that have statistically a better advantage of being successful. You don't do the same damn thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over when it doesn't freakin work.

I'd say it was a mixed about 1/2 & 1/2 pass/run and if you look at the plays we had and the passes completed from the middle of the 2nd on most if not all of JC passes were short dump off plays. The problem I saw in the 2nd half was not the play calling but the fact (which no one seems to mention) is that JC just did not hit our open WR's down the field. I have said this several times and while at the game I saw 7 or more pass plays where we had guys wide open and JC just dumped it off. My wife even noticed our WR's which were wide open and it was not a case for most of them were JC had too much preasure on him. I even had my neighbor comment on how it seemed the JC was starring down WR's which would explain the incomplete passes, dumping it off, and missing the open man. Maybe our problem in the 2nd half was not the play calling but a young QB which we have to expect to have games like that. He completed less than half of his throws in that game.
