How many times did we have the Rams at 3rd and long, and then they'd convert? How many 3 and outs did we have in the second half? The whole second half was just a mess. And our guys looked gassed.
On offense, we now know how important Trent Williams is to our fortunes -- Stephon Heyer was simply terrible. And our D didn't react well at all. I cannot be the only one to notice that when Bradford switched to a two-step drop and getting the ball our really fast (which he did for much of the second half), our DBs remained in soft coverage, and so they were getting 6-7 yards a pop.

It wasn't just Heyer though. Brown was awful. Did they do their homework on this guy? Cause it didn't look like New Orleans was trying very hard to re sign him.
