Running game completely nullified

Foge Fazio/Leslie Frasier caliber D

Two fumbles inside our 25

4 starters out

Start with 4 straight punts

0-99 NFL streak when down by 20 at half

And it's warmer in Asheville than St Petersburg right now

I need the bye week

I'm not sure if I should be pissed over the first half, or if I should eat some crow for ripping the team in chat. I kinda feel bad for being so whiny in chat, yet... Based on the first half, it was deserved.

2nd half Cousins was what we need all game. Was that play calling? No clue. So many thoughts, and they run the gamut.

Coming out the second half in hurry up was big...

Makes me wonder why we aren't doing that every game.

I didn't think they had a snowball's chance in hell to pull it out.  I hoped they'd get their heads out and make it a game.  But that ending...two weeks in a row....is absolutely heart stopping!

Kinda like the buffalo game, but this year they kept playing with heart.  Defense decided to show up before half and the offense decided to join the second half

Kramer's comeback against the Niners in 1977 and the 1985 Wade Wilson/AC against the Eagles games come to mind for me. (and of course the December 1980 TK to Ahmad miracle as well).

Don't feel bad. They played like crap. I ripped them too and I don't feel bad.

Absolutely stunned.  Turned off at half time and went to do yard work, love leaf mulching.  Fortunately for me my wife taped and watched the 2nd half.  After the game she came out and told me they won, I said no way and shit, can't believe I missed it.  She said "oh yeah, I taped it too".  No wonder I have been married for 34 years  B)

I shut it off and watched a boring movie.  Turned it back on as we took the lead. I need a big helping of that crow. Ill have to watch the second half tomorrow to see what changed but it must have been dramatic.

First one I thought of was Wade vs. Philly.  Down 24-0 in the 4th, 28 points in 8 minutes, boom.
