That's the number of rushing plays called after being down only 10 points.

Face it, Fox and the coaching staff went into panic mode just like in the Superbowl(going for 2 too early).

All 6 turnovers came from passing plays.

The Cardinals never "stopped" the run, they rarely even put 8 in the box. That's why Steve was always double covered.

Just wanted to say that cause way too many people are blaming Delhomme/Defense.

It's just funny because how often have we criticized Fox for sticking to the run even when it's not working, and here is the one game in which he should have done just that and he decides to let Jake air it out.

Similarly, you would think a team that constantly faces double teams against Steve Smith might think it necessary to double an equally capable receiver in Fitzgerald.

it was the sum of all these things... a combinations of errors...

[Jangler]

They panicked and were out coached. Slow to adjust. And so for these reasons I believe a change is needed. And you know what? I don't care who they bring in. That Coach, DC and QB has to be better.

It was a collective boneheaded effort...

[MaineManPanther]

They stopped running because they didnt want to get behind, they wanted a quick score becasue it was becoming apparent that our defence couldnt stop them. They didnt just say "down by ten no more running" they just planned on scoring and then go back to running.

The problem was, because of Jake and the o-line , they couldnt get the quick score.Meanwhile the Cardinals kept scoring forcing the Panther to continue to pass.

7 times is INSANE. This wasn't being out coached. This was OVER coaching.

Lets pass when we should run, they don't see this coming.

Meanwhile your# 1 WR is being double teamed.

Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb

You kind of just proved the point he's trying to make. We wanted to score quick so we abandoned the run. Our run has scored for us all year. It scored for us on our first drive. Wanting to score should mean give it to who has scored for us all year. And that is DeAngelo. I understand what you are saying, but it is more important to play your game than become a one-dimensional team. Which is exactly what the Cardinals wanted. If we had kept running it, even down 10, we could have kept the ball out of their offenses hands, and given our defense a break.

Props.

Wait....7 runs the remainder of the game? Or seven run between being down 10 and 17. And why can't we throw a damn screen pass to DWill?

[AKPantherFan]

7 runs the REST of the game..

YUP Fox got scared (or davidson) and they threw any chance of us winning out the window.

Why do you stop doing what got you to the playoffs?

This one still haunts me. This one doesnt get any better with time passing, only worse.

fug our scheme- its was poo.

[pstall]

Yeah. The more you just take a step back and look at the game as a whole, SO many things keep jumping out.

And there are some strange comments coming from the players. Jake saying they stopped the run.

The downplay of worse time to have a bad game. HUH?

I haven't heard much though from the other rb's besides Hoover and the Secondary I have heard zilch.

Just a very strange game.

We lost because of this, also called quicksand...

Rest of the game.
