When we play them again, I really hope Turner learnt some lessons from this one and tries to run it down their throats instead.

I think that's a good point. Especially considering the OL was having more success run blocking than pass protecting...
Now again, take away a couple of BS penalties away and it may be a completely different ball game. Maybe trailing so early affected Turner's playcalling.

Yeah, but I think he was trying to be too clever early on; "They think we're going to run, so we won't". We have an identify. Use it until it stops working.

Once we, in effect, abandoned the run, we lost teh ability to control the clock and wear on their D. :|
