What the hell was the deal at the end of the first half. We should have been up either 10-0 or 6-0 at halftime. Instead, we refuse to run at all, we do not use up the clock at all, and we give the ball back to NO with plenty of time to drive for the final field goal and then feel like they have some rhythm

This is pure idiocy. I knew the second we did this we would find a way to lose. You cannot beat good teams giving away points.

This combined with the inability to score from the 6 inch line plus the Miller fumble were the difference.

And we better find a way to get consistent pressure on D. We cannot get it done without that.

Well, if your o line sucks dick like an o face and there's no run blocking or pass protection, this is what you get: a big o face.

We had the ball on the 1/2 yard line, 1st and goal and couldn't get 6. Utter garbage, piss poor execution and piss poor play calling!!!

He was in for 6 on 2nd down. The ball broke the plane and idiot Tomlin shouldv'e challenged the call but didn't. When you watch the replay, the ball carrier was across the goal line on his back and the tip of the ball broke the plane - what utter bullshit referee play calling.

I usually try not to curse on this board but can someone fucking tell me how skinny-ass QB's like Flacco can somehow find their way into the EZ from the 6-inch line but our lardass 250 lb Bathroom-Ben can't????

I don't give a shit how many times it takes - they should just do a dive play 3 fuckin' times til they're in. Mendenhall has no desire to take on any one to get there.
