Meh. I give the team some props for even having a shot late. I thought the stains would win by 20+ after looking at the starting lineups. That said, I’m still disappointed in Rivers and the play calling.

I hope Taylor shows some improvement in reading his blocks. |

I agree that the offense was a lot more at fault than was the defense overall for losing the game, and that the defense really turned it around in the 2nd half. But on 3rd and 9 when they run it right up the middle, you have to make the tackle. He ran right into them, and they failed to wrap him up. But even if they had made the stop, there is no guarantee that the offense necessarily would have scored the touchdown that they needed. I think that Reich will help them right the ship after losing this winnable game, just like he did after the Jaguars loss on opening day ...... and I suspect that he will start by reminding Rivers that he isn't shy about going for it on 4th down, and that essentially gives him (Rivers) an extra down to work with that most quarterbacks don't have with more conventional coaches. I believe that that is/was part of the reason for Rivers' bad decision-making on the 2 critical INT's that he threw today. o

I was encouraged by them getting back into the game after having been down by a score of 27-10. I think that even on a bad day at this point in his career, a 38 year-old Rivers is still a little bit better than a 27 year-old Brissett is on a good one. o

Mack would obviously help, but in situations where our line should dominate for those tough yards, they aren't doing it. To me so far they look like an average offensive line, not one of the league's best. It could be that someone is banged up outside of Castanzo, or maybe because they didn't have the usual time in the offseason. Who knows. As DaEdge mentioned, play calling has been bad in those situations as well. |

Not saying Taylor will be a top 5 back but I don’t think it is just he has terrible vision |
