Why did they run about 8 running plays in a row when tehy put in Vollmer?
I mean it's like they just gave up, it was pathetic.
They wanted to see how he was going to respond against one of the leading pass rushers in the league. They did the running plays to see if he was able to push back Dumervil. When they saw that he could, they started passing it. Vollmer is a rookie and is extremely raw. With a quarterback coming off of injury, they probably felt that it was too big of a risk to come out throwing right away.
The Detroit Lions called a good amount of passing plays on Sunday. If you felt that this was so pathetic, there's always room on their bandwagon.
Oooh, you showed me!
It was pathetic. 6 predictable running plays in a row. We needed some points and they go 3 and out to "protect the QB"? Why not just forfeit the game at that point if they were that worried, that's pretty much what they did.
The Pats took the 5-0 Broncos into overtime on their home field...yeah..they may as well have just never played the game...got it
I just looked at the recap on the ESPN page...you're nuts...there was exactly ONE 2 yard run by the Pats in the 4th quarter...there were a proportionately large number of botched passing plays .Calling an overtime loss "pointless" is knee jerk idiotic. Blaming it on mythical "2 yard run after 2 yard runs" is flat out moronic.
Were you watching the game? They were leading, Light goes down, they run 6 times in a row and get basically nothing.
