Mosaic is playing a huge factor as the Lions are screwing up the snap count half the time.

Riders have 6-7 guys in the box. Screen it over the middle where Simpson would be.

Yeah, same old same old. Between the tackles. No imagination

a 4 yard out on 2nd and 10 - I have seen that before.

I assume that there will be no running of the football?

Riders missing 2 linebackers and we're not attacking that area. Poor play calling :bang:

When our running game only gets us maybe 2 yards per carry (as has been the case for the better part of the last half of the season, minus the odd big play where he'll significantly increase his yards per carry stat), I don't blame our offense for not running the ball.

I do like the dump passes to Robertson in lieu of the running game though as that has been somewhat effective.

Lulay looks flustered.
It is a huge game and Travis is under a ton of pressure

He will settle down as the game wears on

The OC is another matter altogether

The Riders aren't even disguising the blitz, they are lining 7 guys on the line. Why don't we have play calls for the quick hitter to the hot receiver? It's been like this all season.
actually I think we are handling the blitz better than we usually do... Lulay has made a few quick completions. If he can burn the D a couple of times the Riders will have to back off

Shoulda run the football again so we could punt on 3rd and 5 instead of 3rd and 7 ;)

I cannot beleive we aren't running the ball more. And when we do, it's up the middle between the tackles. Pitch it out and get Robertson to follow the O line.

It is like Chaps wants to illustrate the run will not work, because he game shcemes the ground game right into the teeth of the defense???

It is pretty obvious
