Easy fix on offense, pull Martinez and play Ronnie or Armstrong. I think Ronnie is the best option for us to win out, even with a mistake prone defense. Taylor's days are done. I love the kid, his heard and what he has done, but his turf toe has limited him to being our worst enemy. I understand Enunwa didn't help him on some dropped balls, but had those have been thrown decent, they wouldn't have been dropped, in my opinion.
Defense, pull Santos. Period. That kid kept getting burned by a SLOW TE. Why we didn't see Bando in protection, baffles me. Why we didn't have our sure tackle, heavy pressure bringing Gregory in more, baffles me. I went to this game, and couldn't understand WTH was going on. A stagnant offense for almost the whole game, EXCEPT for 3 drives, which one ended in a fumble by Adbullah, should not be happening against Minnesota. If we need a pocket passer type, Martinez is not that guy. He hurried up on quite a few plays, folded and left players wide open, one being Cethan Carter, where he had 10 yards on the CB. The Kenny Bell incompletion on the sideline, where Bell had a few steps on the CB, and Martinez threw short, like usual. Had Ronnie been out there, I firmly believe we would have won, even with the piss poor defensive showing.
