Life comes at you fast: disappointment take after 15-12 loss to Eagles

El Caliente said

We were bound to lose a game, this seems a bit haunting though. Is Carr the same Carr? Is KK able to change the game plan accordingly moving forward?

Part of me wants to.blame the defense for this loss, but that would be an extremely reactionary, stupid illogical mindset because their the ones who kept the Eagles offense scoreless for 3 quarters and were responsible for a couple of great 4th down stands. One bad critical.mishap doesn't obscure the fact that they played overall, a good game today.

I do blame our offensive play-calling to.some extent even if KK had limited weapons. The biggest missing weapon was Taysom Hill. He makes those 3 and 4th and shorts we fork up on in the 2nd half deep in Eagles territory. Taysom brings an extra dimension to our offense that affects how secondaries and front 7's read and react to how a unconventional weapon like #7 bends their coverages.

If we have Hill today, we probably score 7-10 more points and while the game still ends up being close, I think we can better successfully wear down the Eagles defense more effectively.
