i listened on the radio and may have missed it but i don't ever recall hearing that we attempted a play action pass.

Especially after Hall runs for a nice gain....we always go right back to him....why don't we fake it to him...freeze the line backers and throw to a wide open TE or WR ???

instead we try the play every team knows we will run....REVERSE!

it worked against L'ville....but guess what everyone knows how well it worked and they are set-up to defend it. How abouct faking the reverse or maybe trying a double reverse!

What's the point of play action if you can't hit an open receiver? Honestly, the major problem with this offense is that we can't consistently execute the simplest of offensive plays like a simple screen to the WR or RB. Ditto with anything over the middle of the field. Teams watching our film only have to be concerned about stopping Hall and Ponton and they have us beat, b/c if you give our QBs enough,  chances are they'll be good for a couple of turnovers.

Please !  We aint' exactly top notch on catching the friggin ball either. I was sooooooo pissed at Peyton. He caught a one handed sideline pass from behind...BUT HE CAN'T CATCH IT IN THE NUMBERS!?!?!

Pure Agony.
