We've often had good plays by Jacoby

But how often have we said “smart” play for him?

Give Jacoby the Oscar and call it a day.

that one int where Andre tipped it and Jarius byrd got it, was that Schaubs fault or Andres?

Neither really

Just one of those things… Andre tried to catch it in his body and it bounced off his pads… thing is they teach you to catch with your body on crossing routes so you can’t really say he should have done different. Just terrible luck of the bounce.

But right now Moats > Slaton… at least for dependability.

That second one

But Moats has been impressive

probably a little bit of both

Their run D is bad.

But keep in mind the kind of run plays that have been successful.

Where were those pitches the first few weeks?

I think Kubiak

has enough tricks in his bag to get us in the end zone at least twice.

We need our D to keep us in it until then.

Like i've said in another game

Mario gets held nearly every play of every game, they don’t call them simply because games would never end if they did. He’s a victim of his own greatness in that regard.

Why in the name of Jesus God Almighty Christ would we put Slaton in for him to give it up and turn the game around????

Even if he comes in just in passing situations – he’s also fumbled in the open field this year. Shit is working. Let’s not destroy it.
