Please run the ball, you need to stack some plays to get in a rhythm

Clock is a factor here, sure, but it's been pretty fully abandoned since... well, the moment it started WORKING

This is consistently Waldrons pain point

Run-first is their only shot here, feels like. Run game hasn't suffered much, and it's a good way to slow things down and recalibrate. Gotta chill the offense out and try to find some normalcy despite the line woes.

Yeah a good mix of Charbs and Walker, and I think they could easily get stuff going

If they would run a little more, and throw some shorter routes I feel like this wouldn't be a tough one..........but what do I know.

Two wildcard snaps in a row instead of just running the ball as usual.

The cuteness is going to give me an aneurysm. I don't even care that the first play worked. Need to build on fundamentals here.
I thought for a minute there was a glitch in the matrix or my Covid brain was acting up. Two identical plays in a row with a direct snap to DJ Dallas? WTF?!

I didn't understand the two in a row wildcat thing there. That did seem kind of dumb.

I would have been happier to see them run the same play but with different legs. Back to back didn’t fool anyone. Wasted momentum.
