We had 7 drops last week. That's unacceptable. Rock went 10/21. He could have been 17/21 instead, that's the difference of 30%! In a loss it could have been the difference.
Carries for the HB's were about even, but Six gets the start over Kidd this week before switching back over.

lol...I think their 3 CB's (20,22, and 19) played a bigger role in those drops. Maybe knocking thm out of the hands or something.
Thankfully Jammin' schooled the No. 4 guy twice - those were sweet TD's and a sign that anybody on the offense can cause damage. Like the Kidd's td run.
On a side note - the Bulls only have 3 CB's...and 1 of them is a CPU player! We should be able to have a better offensive show - provided the "D" keeps up the mojo.

Fair enough, with just dots, I assume the worst.
Should we drop Jammin to WR4 and let him loose with the deep ball on high? |

IMO - don't change a thing...Rock found him twice and Jammin smoked their CB. I think Jammin will have the same success. The only thing I have a concern about is the 4th down call that happened in the 4th qtr.
But that's throwing lint at a great game by the offense. The Pens are a dang good team on paper...their tactics suck.
Last year Istanbul killed us 52-13 and rumbled fer 320 yards. The Bulls are gonna try to run on us again - however we're not gonna let that happen.

It should look familier cuz Jammin got on ESPN with the same play.

Not to deviate from your game plan...but can you set it up so this pass play is a definite play in 1st and 2nd half? Heck if anything maybe also ratchet up the percentage a bit on 1st downs.
I think that translates into having the play execute at about 890 seconds left in the quarter (assuming kick-off returns take 10 seconds...meaning we get one shot to go "BOOM".  That way we don't mess up the works too much with the offense.

Can do, the server is down for maintenance, it says check back in a few hours, I'll make sure we run that play more often. |

GLB's been having server problems today and will go through another maintenance "fix".
Don't sweat it if you can't get the changes in - we'll be fine. |

lol...never mind I saw the "Air it out" Special you set up.
Question - why at 50% for each one?
We'll only get the ball once to start either the 1st or 2nd half.
It should be at 100%.
Also it should be set for the 1st and 3rd quarter...not 1&2.

Sprspck - I added the "Air it out" for the 3rd quarter and adjusted the percentages to 100.
I would have waited fer you...but I didn't want to take a chance on the GLB server being down again.

What a freakin pain...you have to specify each second so that "Air-it-out" special can trigger.
Ie. 890..891...892...893....etc.
Jammin - you better catch the damn ball.
