We’re a bend don’t break defense, sometimes we break. Breaking repeatedly wasn’t the problem, we just broke at a bad time but giving up only 15 points on D to an Eagles offense that was averaging 27ppg is winning defense.
Only scoring 12 after averaging 45ppg is, well..saying it lightly a let down.
Still, a huge part of our identity wasn’t there today.
We were 1-5 in the redzone today. And while Carr has been accurate he hasn’t been the engine to scoring in the RZ it’s been the run game on early downs inside the 20. Down Taysom and McCoy didn’t allow us to play bully ball down there.
Meanwhile we’d been an explosive offense w/ Shaheed making big plays. That connection was 0-5.
The things that lead to our offensive dominance wasn’t there today.
those things make not taking the 3 points and then needing the 2point conversion and failing stand out more.
San Fran lost similar game this year and Shanahan playcalling was questioned. This is a playmaker heavy scheme
