TE's were used and were terrible.

There were only a handful of truly dropped passes. Their defense knocked several potential catches away.

Were you watching a different game than me, or are you over exaggerating?

Desean Smith had a big drop , and Dickson fumbled when a defender put his hat on the ball on a catch and run.

There was ONE designed play for a TE (which was dropped). Dickson's catch/fumble was on a scramble.

Gordy said Cam made adjustments at half. Gave the details of what they did to offset Wisky but I dont recall it.

Oline was horrible until they lost both of their starting DTs. The highly predictable play calling returned. I'm sorry, but if you don't think Miles controls the offensive play calling then you haven't been watching. Three different OCs, and the same predictable plays in the same down and distance. The opponents know what's coming. Zero use of the middle of the field or TEs in the passing game. The "hurry up" is ALWAYS the toss-dive which ends up being a wasted 2nd down 90% of the time. Nothing we saw last night was much different from 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012

Well said sir

Yes, and that was enough to tell us that we didn't need any more TE passes for the night.

Cam's calling plays. He has nearly full autonomy. This is the way that Cam brings along his young QBs. Reminded me almost exactly the way he handled P. Rivers and Flacco early in their careers. Frustrating at first but in the long run it works.

Oline sucked. Outweighed the opponent by 71 lbs average and we couldn't open a hole until late in game when they were playing nickel and dime. It is what it is, an overrated Oline (for now).

Desean Smith had a giant drop. And that's basically the pattern.

- Boring old up the middle Iso on the 1-10 x8
- Finally call a play action
- Receiver drops it because he hasn't seen a pass all day
- Receiver doesn't get thrown to

The play calling really *can* work, but doesn't for a long time. This makes for a really frustrating game.

We did wear them down. They were down 2 starters on DL before Hilliard got really going.

Jennings hit a few clutch throws and it helped loosen up the Wisc D a bit. However their injuries on DL hurt them and helped us.
