I know stats don't tell you what actually happened, but I couldn't help noting that aside from being out gained on the ground, we won TOP and overall yardage by a margin. What killed us was 2 bad turnovers from Allen; which seems to be becoming his forte. The 2pt attempt showed that he can't improvise, and to a lesser extent, neither can his compatriots (e.g. Gibson virtually motionless).

Putting this all on RR is fine as it's the HCs job to own the results, but a better QB would have won that game. Allen may well be the best we have right now but he's not the answer and I think RR knows that. He's not tanking (I don't really think you can in the NFL, it goes against the players psyche), but he's also not worried about the record too much. He's evaluating everyone and learning who he wants to keep next year. 30-50% of this roster will be different come next season, then we'll find out if RR really can put a winning team on the field. This season is just a 16 game preseason for 2021.
