KiLoc69 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Why did we start the game so pass happy? I know the running game wasn't exactly lighting it up but you can't just abandon it completely until late in the game. My biggest gripe however is that I don't think we even passed to him once. Whether on a dump off or a designed play, we need to get him the ball in space several times a game, especially if handing it off to him isn't yielding results.

Damnit, they are solid weapons, get them the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfoligno Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I think Forte wasn't used as a receiver much due to having to stay back and block. They were not simply beating our OL, but killing our OL right off the snap. As for Olsen, he was actually targeted 6 times but only made one catch. You could tell GB game planned to take him away. And he also let one, or maybe it was two, bounce off his hands. Agreed. Fote and Olsen were not used. Damnit, they are solid weapons, get them the ball.

Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Was it just me, or did Forte look bigger (fatter) and slower? I know he had like 3 holes to run through, but when he did, it seemed like he wasn't hitting them very hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
