Predictable.

But we have Case Favre so...who knows.
Yeah, honestly I think they were thinking it from 1st down. Given field position and offense gets the ball after the half, I'm okay with it.

Play-action isn't working nearly as well as it has been, largely due to pressure Case has been subject to on those passes.

Let's get Diggs going in the second half.

Why didnt we try to get in field goal range at least?

Bad field position to start (1 yard line). Not a ton of time to do so. Then ended up in that 2nd and 22 situation. Also didn't want to give the Rams good field position (or make a big mistake). I don't like it, but I get it. If they were starting on the 20 or something I suspect there would've been more of an attempt.

Diggs engaged the defender... too bad if he didn't it may have been defensive PI.

3 and out... sigh

@TomPelissero Teddy Bridgewater, still on sideline, animated over non-call on deep ball to Stefon Diggs, talked with official. Safe to say he's engaged.

Yeah but they got it up to the like 20 yard line. I do not get that.
