Too cute there

But good to see points early

Damn, first time we actually saw a shovel pass since Reid was here and it didn't end up working.  Might not see it again.

Reed Blankenship questionable to return 

His head got cocked 

Stalled in the RZ. Sigh.

Good drive - need to finish the next one though

Throw to receivers in the red zone. 

Solid drive, hate not punching it in.

Beautiful drive to be honest. Sucks that it fell short when the field shortened up.  But still, they looked great.

If I could offer one complaint, they never gave Hurts’ arm a chance to convert there.  A bunch of runs stalled and then a shovel pass that couldn’t execute.  Give him at least one chance to manufacture a TD with his arm.

Any other team drops back to pass on at least 2 of those goal line plays.

Would have liked one AJ slant there.

How is this team so bad at screens and by extension that shovel pass?  I don’t get it…

Well you had the right player 

Horseshoes and hand grenades, sadly.    Seems the Rams were expecting Goedert too.  😕

 

Needed 7 on that drive to send a message.   Instead we get to check on Elliott's mental state.  That's ok I guess, but I would have preferred seeing Elliott kick a PAT to check on him rather than settling for 3.   That said... good for Sirianni in taking the points.  Maybe there's hope for him yet.

Big opportunity missed…don’t particularly like the play calling there 

Not sure about that play calling - I like running it once maybe twice but at least once you need to call a pass play to AJ

Don’t like not one pass going into the end zone there,

I don’t hate that play call. Good D by the Rams. 

Less Hurts designed runs please. 

But overall a good drive. Took the points.

Defense time.

I’m ok with the shovel pass, also fine with taking the points there. 
 

Hope missing Reed won’t hurt our pass defense too bad

Why can’t we ever target Aj brown in the Fing red zone 

Because they will probably have him doubled knowing that's where we want to go. He's not out jumping 2 people on a fade

Yup - just give him a chance.  Instead they went too conservative

Of all the play-calls, the QB draw bugged me the most. We had already ran it that same drive.

It feels like their goal down there is to get down to the 1 to set up the push. Would like to see some throws to the end zone. Give AJ a chance.

Just like your mom last night!

AYOOOO

I said this last week, feels like we far too often don’t target aj once we get into the red zone. He doesn’t have to be targeted multiple times in one red zone set. but it feels like we’ve gone weeks where it’s 1 or 2 targets all game inside the red zone

I’d be more concerned that he’s our only S that can tackle.

I expect him back.  I think it was a stinger.
