3 things

[Davis83]

I hardly ever start a topic, but have to to today.

1.  Our defense maybe not so bad if they are allowed to play aggressive - when we needed a stop and they played aggressive - they made the stop.  3.25 quarters they played that soft zone (bend don't get beat long) defense and the other team walked down the field.  So, I see the philosophy holding us back

2.  When we need it, play with some speed and open the playbook a little - we got talent to score on anybody.  For 3.25 quarters we play to move the ball but not take risks - again philosophy holds them down.

3.  Cam continues to overthrow more often than not when driving lazers down the field from the pocket.  He clearly does better if mobile.  Can't we ever get an offensive philosophy of blending what he does good with Norv's creative playcalling? 

Philosphy = Coaching.  Funny how offensive minded coaches play to win from the beginning and defensive coaches rely on being saved at the end of games. 

I'm happy for the win, but we looked like trash for 3.25 Qtrs - too much talent on this team for that.

I agree,  this philosophy is definitely different and I don't like it. We shoot our shot in the 4th qtr, going for the win. To me that tells me one of two things. 

One: We actually think that this is best advantage to win. We'll catch them off guard and beat them leaving little time on the clock and defense will hold. 

Two: We're hiding something. Maybe our players aren't up in the offensive playbook enough to sustain enough offensive plays to last 4qtrs. 

I'm not saying that I expect us to dominate every game but I don't like waiting till the 4 qtr to shoot or shot...
