Game Notes vs. Jacksonville
-
I totally agree with you Sound. Daboll has shown he can turn it loose. I think he's afraid to lose, so he goes conservative or he's got "eat the clock" syndrome. He's on the bubble with me. Three good games doth not make a Offensive Coordinator make.
My bet is that Mangini was the one responsible for the conservative play calling. I don't get the feeling he has much confidence in McCoy despite some of the things he has said. I suspect he wanted to keep it conservative. Daboll just acts too excited when McCoy has done something good so I am inclined to think he'd open it up more.

When you lose a game that you won the turnover margin by 6 (not counting the INT at the end of the game) you have to decide to look at a three-and-out as worse than a turnover.

Come on man....Colt didn't play that well.
Let's call it like it is.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

He did not. And it was about time he played like a rookie.
But he also didn't play bad enough for us to lose with a plus six differential.
This loss doesn't fall on just one thing. But the playcalling is the thing that I can't live with.

Here's what I saw: when the pressure came down, Colt needed to step up in the pocket more, rather than try and rollout.
Every QB deals with pressure differently; the Jags knew that Colt was going to deal with pressure by trying to escape. McCoy needs to be able to step up and deliver a short to intermediate strike when the pressure comes on his sides or behind. He's not done an awful job at that overall, but today it was apparent. When a defense gets greedy and tries to pin their ears pack, you need to make a quick slant or some kind of screen. The Jags figured out how to keep him and Hillis contained and the only way to win was to deliver strikes from within the pocket. We couldn't do that.

Still don't understand why Ventrone or Eric King were in the game so much.
who else do we have? Brown, Haden, King, then Ventrone. I think king can cover really well, just poor tacking.

Good point. We missed Mike Adams bad.

Speculation.
Colt WAS NOT that accurate today. He underthrew MoMass. He was behind guys on the slants and he didn't look poised under the rush. There is no bigger Colt fan than me (both my kids wore his jersey on our Xmas card last year) but he was simply not good enough today.

After he was hurt he did not have the speed to avoid those sacks too.

There's nothing wrong with Colt playing an occasional bad game (e.g. less than four or five per season of sixteen games). Peyton Manning comes up flat sometimes. You just need to have a good enough offense overall to still win games even when you don't play like a pro bowler.
