35 passes vs 23 rushes

Does that seem like the game plan we should run? I'd really like someone to defend this because I can't understand how we pass more than we run when we have not one, but two 1000 yard runners. I do understand we were playing from behind in the second half, but I feel we caved too quickly and put too much on #3.

The running game was tough today...the giants were slamming 9 guys in the box on first and second down, and blizting hte house on third. The giants were going to make the passing game (not just matt moore) beat them. Until someone proves they can consistently stretch the defense..everyone we play this year will stuff 9+ guys in the box. Today, fox had to go away from the run game, we were behind and the run game was stuck in neutral.

Our running game was shut down that is why.

Whoever said Fox got into panic mode is also naive. They put up a very quick 14 points due to the muffed snap and their opening drive. After that we were down two scores and the majority of the 3rd quarter gone, what on Earth do you expect him to do?!

Personally, when they were down 14 and had 1st and goal at the Giant 4 yard line with 8 and a half minutes to go I expected Stewart and a Jumbo Package to run it in and pull within 7.

    • I personally think Bryce is going to be an extremely good Quarterback for a long time. If you look at modern QB development, it just takes a while. The extreme athletes can get by early, but if you look at the trajectories of guys the last 10 years, were seeing a lot of slow-cooking. Jared Goff, Geno Smith, Baker, Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence. The list is long.  The guys that were truly special from Day 1 is an extremely short list. The list of things that college quarterbacks are responsible for gets shorter by the day with the transfer portal, and the college offenses. The list of things that NFL Quarterbacks are responsible for seems to get longer and longer each season.  I saw an interview the other day in which a rookie quarterback and center were calling plays for the offense.  I can't remember the team or the Quarterback, but I definitely remember the clip. It takes time, even for the smartest and most gifted, and the reality is, we have no idea how good or bad the coaching may be until we hear things we aren't supposed to hear anyway.  Bryce isn't perfect, but I saw in another thread, his biggest struggle is risk/reward. That is something I only expect him to improve upon. His adjustments, ability to read a defense, and execution have been extremely good considering our rosters in his tenure here. Our offensive personnel and coaching were both so poor his rookie year that I'm not sure it's fair to properly evaluate that at all. Since that time, all we've seen from him is growth and progress. 
    • Not really.  The run defense has been solid except for the opening game and New England.  We shut Arizona's run game down, but early turnovers hurt.  And of course, we shut out Atlanta.    
    • True, Bryce having a weaker arm wouldn’t be a big deal if it was paired with… Great accuracy, ball placement, etc. But it’s not.  Bryce has consistently done 2 things all 3 seasons.  One of the lowest completion % in the NFL each year,  one of the highest bad throws % in the NFL.    Then you can get into his unwillingness to stress a D and how that has allowed safeties and DBs  cheat coverage making the small ball so many QBs enjoy a tougher task.
