you're right, but also consider that we were running the ball in a game situation that necessitated it. The g-men knew we had to rely more on the run game w/collins making his first start in 10 years in a swirling wind. Still, they couldn't stop it enough.

Collins won't have to deal w/the wind in the dome next week & we'll get to see a more wide open attack. Of course we'll want to run the ball but I expect to see more 3 & 4 wr sets, which we didn't see hardly any of last night. Did McCardell, Caldwell & Thrash even get in the game on O?
