You need to get over this. Start caring when we need to score and don't.

Start caring that we're not scoring in the 2nd half

No need to care. We won both games and it wasn't even close. 

[Joe Shades 73]

4th quarter was a l milk the clock, if you disagree with doing that please ban yourself

All 3 games we’ve been running burn the clock offense for most of the second half. I’m not concerned when the play calling is just run, run, awkward 3rd and long pass play.
 

for better or worse it’s worked fine

I can see the argument running the ball and burning the clock in the 4th quarter. That shouldn't be an excuse for the 3rd quarter. You should want to score and put the game away

[Vee]

He'll be back when the team passes three consecutive times in the 4th quarter which allows a team enough time to mount a come back.

There's just no pleasing some people. 

It could have been 104 to 0 and then he'd complain we should have pulled the starters....unless they did in which case he'd complain about something else.

They may not win another game in our lifetime , does not change the fact overall these games were managed correctly in 2nd half

[Columbus Eagle]

I’m not sure what to make of the second half scoring woes, but I’m not worried at this point. We are running the ball to chew up the clock. The defense knows it, the fans know, the announcers know it. They are keying on the run when we are winning by so much. We almost become one dimensional on purpose and it has worked both times. Until it doesn’t, I’m not concerned.

this, foot on throat

 

[seengreen]

How are thee RB's scars and not the Oline? Washington is one of the few teams who completely negate our Oline.

I dont think the criticism is just this game 

3 games in a row not scoring in the 4th and two games In a row not scoring in the 2nd half is eventually going to catch up to them.

They need to come out in the 3rd and step on throats, sure the last 2 didn't t end up being much of an issue as the D played great in both but the lions game could have easily been a loss.

You can make a case for the lions game but the last 2 games they  did not even try to score in the 4th nor did they have to

[MagicMoment]

2nd half scoring is concerning. It really drives home the point that our offense is completely on a schedule and we can’t make adjustments at halftime. 
 

Good teams can still put up points after the opposing defense adjusts at halftime.

I think the D had the foot on throat and the coaches recognized it. Nothing wrong with that.

They made an adjustment to a more conservative scheme. An adjustment was made. It's the tick-tick-tick, don't get anyone injured, let the D dominate and the O kill clock adjustment.

Playing not to lose will get you beat against good teams. The great Patriots, Steelers, and Chiefs teams of the last 10 years tried to score on you even if they were already up by 20 points.

I'm more concerned about a 2 games In a row not scoring in the 2nd half.

4th qtr sizable lead no worries.

No excuse for coming out in the 3rd and laying an egg.

Bull, none of those teams took unnecessary risks when up big late in games against garbage teams
