W2B, if there was ever a time to tee off on Spags and his staff, now is it. I know you've kept it bottled in all year... let it rip! Worst coached game of the year. You didn't mention that Seattle has the 32nd ranked run defense and SJ only had 11 carries all game. If you're not going to run the ball, at least throw the ball down field and see what happens (even though the Rams garbage receivers probably would have just tallied up more dropped passes.)
Worst coached game of the year (with some stiff competition), at the worst time. You should hear the excuses in the chatbox for that mess:
-Spags isnt resposible for the missed challenges, it's on his assistants to tell him to challenge.
-Spags isnt resposible for the lack of Jackson touches, that's on Pat Shurmer.
-Spags isnt resposible for the play calling, he's a defensive coach.
-It's not on Spags that Bradford keeps checking down, it's on Bradford.
What people don't understand about Bradford, and even Collinsworth fell into this trap, is that he isnt checking down. THAT'S THE OFFENSE. It's been this way all year.
With your playoff life on the line, if you don't want to run the ball (play along), at least get Jackson involved in the passing game. Get the best player on the field the ball in space, and let him try to win the game.
For fucks sake, the coaching staff was severly overmatched, and Seattle didnt exactly have the gameplan of the century going for them. Whitehurst was running for his life and missing guys by a mile, and Seattle kept chucking. At least they put the game in his hands, more than I can say for how the Rams handled Jackson & Bradford.
