It is pretty simple really. The defense cheats up when they don't expect to see anything other than short gimmicky plays.
Moreover, when your porous, continuously shitty, penalty prone, offensive line can't give Wilson any time to throw the defense can also cheat up.
Lastly, when we have the best running back in the NFL for yards after contact and our pop warner, techmo bowl, idiot OC refuses to use him, we should expect to lose. We deserve to lose.

Yea so what, We just got our butts kicked and all you have to say is that? If our team plays like it did today. They will gets thier butts kicked in St. Louis!THE TABS":3bt6j88p said:We're on to St. Louis.

Is that on the OC? Maybe. But Russell isn't utilizing his receivers. Hasn't done so all year. Maybe that's a playcalling issue; maybe it's a protection issue; maybe it's a WR talent issue; maybe it's QB issue. Dallas, just like Arizona last year, gave Russell one-on-ones in coverage all day long. Seattle couldn't capitalize.
Sending Harvin on go-routes all game long isn't going to miraculously fix this offense. He isn't a go-route receiver and never has been.
We need to make teams pay for one-on-one coverage. That will take a defender out of the box.
Russell needs to complete some real NFL throws. Bottom line. Putting it all at Bevell's feet still isn't addressing the heart of the issue.

You're kind of agreeing with my gripes, by default. I don't see playcalling curtailed to the strengths of the personnel. Empty sets with ZBS/grappling OLineman, running almost exclusively out of the pistol with ZBS/Grappling OLineman, Walters in on key 3rd down conversions, bubble screens as a mainstay...not a change up, and no bootlegs on the last drive.
There's no identity, nor has their been all year long. Your post, albeit unintentionally, is stating that too.

For some reason they are not playing our supposed speed guy in Richardson, and when RW does throw deep the passes are NOT being hauled in. That isn't on Bevell, but what IS on him is getting all artsy fartsy and getting away from running the ball.
