Game was lost when Green was not replaced this week. Stroud starts the game not feeling interior pressure.
This cant be explained. By formation they always had either Wilson or Adams in the Slot. It was a very effective halftime adjustment. Petrie's not talented enough to cover either one of those guys. The 2nd half shows how bad this defense misses WA.
Stroud hasn’t regressed. The OL is just plain trash and the WRs outside of Nico have been bad as well. He’s having to do all the heavy lifting.
Have to think a huge part of that is that he’s so consistently being rushed that now it’s affecting him even when he has time.
We will trade for some O-line help. And maybe try to add on a WR as well. Safety Jamal Adams is a free agent that we need to pickup.
When your team is constantly blowing 20 point leads causing your players to log a lot more minutes and play a lot harder than they should, it adds up and that's how injuries happen.... not to mention that's how you end up blowing games you should win. FVV isn't 22 and he's literally never made it through a full season without missing games to injury. Is it as bad as the Texans being pathetic? Of course not, but it's still really bad.
