I am a staunch believer that we were too conservative in the second half against the Giants for no good reason but before that and since our offensive strategy has been fine in my estimation. Our "conservativeness" today was dictated by the personell we had. Plain and simple. I really think that all these people blaming intensity or play calling in general are missing the fact that having a decimated offensive line doesn't just affect how well you do things but it affects the things you can even try to do.

We had to pare our play book back based on personell and then they executed the reduced play book about half as well as our normal guys would have. The offensive line IS THAT IMPORTANT. It is the key to everything anyone does. It is the reason we struggled today.
