    Amen

    They can't stop the run on defense

    And that leads to the other team running, and we couldn't stop them from running

    Shanny got away from the run game before it was a multiple possession game. For example, it was 14-7 and Crow went 11yds on 2 carries and Shanny then called 3 passes in a row, including the flea-flicker.

    It's been my biggest -and really only criticism of Shanny this year, as he has done this multiple times.

    4/16 GR: 8, 9, 1, -2

    4/07 TR: 0,-1, 7, 1

    0/00 WR:
