9 carries total yesterday. 1 in the second half. He is criminally underutilized. By all means, chuck the ball all over the yard with a quarterback that has a history of accuracy issues and expect a different result.
The game got away from us when we stopped running the ball. And not sure what you’re talking about, Donaldson was a tight end. He can be a weapon in the passing game.Being down in the second half as much as we were, using the big back with little ability to catch the ball isn't a recipe for cutting into the lead for any coach.
Defense lost this game.
We were down 7 points dude. Seriously. ONE SCORE and we threw the ball like we had Marc Bulger back there. The defense in the 2nd half was the only reason we were able to stay within one score.Being down in the second half as much as we were, using the big back with little ability to catch the ball isn't a recipe for cutting into the lead for any coach.

we did run the ball. Maybe way too many times. Look at the last drive. Nice drive using mostly Pass as a change up to mostly Run.. Number of the INC's were hurried. But with the mix we moved the ball instead of just relying on the run.It was a 1 TD game for most of the second half. Defense was getting stops but offense couldn’t get going. I agree. Run the ball!!
You do understand that the last drive we weren't facing a "defense" because they were up by multiple scores and just wanted us to not score quickly.we did run the ball. Maybe way too many times.

Short routs even though GG was only 6-12 proved to be a winning combination. 1 break up 2 hurries and 1 sack on that drive with only 1 run.
Greene was leading rusher. Our offense gets out of sync because it's always all about Greene and not team.When you have a guy averaging damn near 7 yards per carry, you feed him until they can prove they can stop him. That didn’t happen. We decided to put the game on Greene’s arm with predictable results
