Re: Best win in a long time against all odds post game thread

The defense play and gameplan was outstanding. The gameplan was to play the run tough while dropping into the short zone routes, dL getting their hands up

We completely shut down the run...one dimensional team are extremely vulnerable

Agreed, shout out to Del Rio for having a solid game plan and sticking to it.
I thought bringing pressure and rattling Ben was key to the game, but he trusted his guys and found a way.

One think I liked the most in this game is all they had to overcome :

- 3rd down drop by Stevens Sims JR early
- Sprinkle not recovering the muffed punt on the next play
- Horrendous spotting of the ball on Logan Thomas 3rd down play
- Inman missing the block on 4th down
- Fuller missing the tackle on the Steelers second TD right after that 5 play from the 1 yards line amazing stands

...

I'm sure I'm forgetting some, haven't re-watched the game yet, but what I know is this team was NOT overcoming that kind of start to a game under previous coaches.

- The phantom defensive "holding" after we had them stopped and about to punt.

Oh yeah, that call on Moreland was 100% BS, great play by him.

Just re-watched the condensed version, one quick side note:

On the 4th and 1 by the Steelers where Bostic is late to line up in front of his guy, I thought heard somebody shout "Hey JB JB !" to make him realize he was leaving his guy uncovered before the snap. Then he gets in there just in time and the young RB can't adjust to the throw.

The guy who yelled was Holcomb. Good to have young guys with that kind of awareness. Throw that on top of all the good plays Holcomb made!
