We were successful with Teddy, not because he is the greatest backup ever, but because we approached every game the same: balance our offense with the pass and run, keep the defense fresh and explosive by keeping them off the field, dominating time of possession with the run, taking pressure off the QB with the run and quick passing game (noticing a pattern?). We need to focus on the things that took us to 5-0 without Drew and use Drew as an additional weapon, not the focus of every play. We've never made it to a Superbowl with Drew throwing for 5000+ yards, why? Once we get one-dimensional, the good teams can take advantage of that. Drew is still great, but that formula hasn't worked for us; we saw what works for us!!!!
I knew we would really get to see Coach Payton's coaching chops once Drew went down. His play calling was great and once Drew got back, we were right back to where we started. I know I sound crazy because we're winning, but I can't ignore that I am always unhappy WATCHING the play-calling in the game. 3rd & 1: yeah, let's pass here??? Murray is only a productive sledgehammer that can easily pick that up. I've seen several posts blaming Drew for being immobile...have you seen the QB of the reigning SB CHAMPS?!?! Let me know if I'm losing it #WeDAT
