Dutch 874 Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Self sliding and fumbling the ball for a turnover and continuously missing wide open gimme passes and horrible interceptions no where near the receiver I'm going to call on us. There were too many easy missed opportunities due in inadequacies at key moments for me; beating ourselves.So for me, the only convincing win against us was the Packers because in the other two losses we hurt ourselves with horrible and unnecessary turnovers by Foles.

That's because Foles sucks though and he is still part of the team. Same with Sanchez. We're going to have games where we "beat ourselves" because we have two turnover prone QB's. If you really want to think about it we beat ourselves in the off season by coming into the year with these two on top of the depth chart. Looking over at Oakland, it'd have been nice to at least see what we could have done with that raw arm strength Carr has. Hopefully we find ourselves in position to upgrade at QB at some point down the road. It's tough to beat elite teams without a top QB unless every other facet of the game is going really really well. Very exciting to see a revival of our ground game though. McCoy need to get going for a stretch run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very exciting to see a revival of our ground game though. McCoy need to get going for a stretch run. Yeah, that was my point though. We have been winning despite our bad QB play and two of the losses we've had has been because of very bad QB play with stupid and unnecessary turnovers. Outside of the Green Bay loss ofcourse where we just got our bells rung. It's scary to think of what our team would be like if we have competent QB play with how our defense and special teams have been playing. For now though, we need our running game to continue to play well for us to even have a chance to play competitively to take pressure off of Sanchez and open things up for our offense to be effective.
