Frankly with this defense's track record in recent years? I'd rather just have a punt.
Rams didn't really risk it. Had they thrown to try to make that 2nd and long or 3rd and long, you'd expect to have a shot at an INT.

I edited my post a bit but agreed. That said, just focus on making the tackle and tight coverage... there's no reason to 'go for an INT' there and give up a 40 yard pass. If an INT falls in your lap fine..

Another FG that feels slightly hollow.

Still not seeing enough 3 WR sets... also the Rams seem to be getting to Geno a bit more than they should. I get Donald is there, but there's really nobody else elite on their DL.... the playstyle seems very conservative/Pete Carroll-esque. Launch some deep balls to JSN/Lockett/Metcalf. Why are we marching out so many 2 TE/2RB sets?

Ugh, what a horrible rule.

Just give the offense the ball at the 20-25 yard line these days and call it a day. Eliminate the kick return all together with these pansy ass rules.

Can't cover, can't tackle.

Well Geno, be prepared to score 30 because this will be a loss otherwise.

D isn't going to stop them, but that young team should make a few more mistakes. It's really our own hope anyway.

What strategy is 2 down lineman ? Maybe on 3rd and a dam mile ?

woot nice blocked field goal. Would've been nice to see a bit more return but I'll take it! We should absolutely be playing for a TD here with 3 timeouts.

I really don't know boog but they keep insisting on it over the last couple years. I don't get it. They do 2 down lineman, one standing, 4 linebackers, and then the secondary. I have never seen anything like that before and I understand it might work when you're up by 14+ points, but otherwise, I don't get it. We are running it constantly while DOWN or the game is tied.

I think one reason I wanted Carter was so they'd stop doing that shit.
