The double digit losses thing comes from a time, almost five years ago. If you check recent years, you will see a few blowouts per year. And EVERY playoff loss since the SB that was not a wildcard game has been a blowout.

I think we can shelve the idea that Carroll does not get blown out. He does. He does it less since we tend to start trying to run the clock out halfway through the 1st but it still happens.

What made yesterday rare was not getting blown out, but getting blown out at home by a team using a backup QB.
That’s what happens When you got a crappy game plan how the hell do you not key on Alvin Kamara ! I have no idea he would have definitely not been the one if I was the DC.

You better count this one as a double digit loss, because that last second TD was complete garbage time. Man that missed TD at the end of the 3rd quarter was big...

Russ was off the entire 2nd half it seemed. Alot of balls were underthrown with the receiver going to the ground to make the catch. This loss was on the whole team on a day where it seemed like nothing was going right. Coaching mistakes and execution mistakes everywhere.

It's one game early in the year for a team that gets stronger as the season goes on. I'm not worried.


Hm. I agree he had a couple of bad throws, like all qbs but to say he was off all 2nd half would be wrong. He completed over 60% of his passes in and half. Again if PC does not play it safe and stupid in the first half the 2nd half plays out differently. So as I said I and anyone with unbiased eyes put very little to no blame me on Wilson for this loss. To me PC is the biggest issue and PC himself said so.

A Russ off for half a game is still better than most QB's in the league. The overthrow of Lockett on 4th and 5 is not normal Russ. That's his type of throw and one of the throws that make him as great as he is.
