6:30 in the video above. 3rd and 6 for Seattle, we’re down 10 with 4 min left in the 3rd quarter. The Seahawks line up 3 wide to the right, a standing TE to the left of the formation. Our defense inexplicably attaches 3 cover defenders to the left of the hash and 1 to the right. The open slot receiver is Lockett, who has been nails against the Cardinals for the better part of a decade now. Why did we leave him uncovered and not switch it up pre-play? No one was covering the slot.
8:25 in the video. Still down 10, 3rd and goal from the 5. Kyler has time, and he has two openings he misses. He has a very small window to get it underneath to Wilson at the 1 but it closes fast. He forces to McBride and overthrows it, but Conner is open and waiting in the flat with only a CB to beat. James Conner vs any CB, I have to give him the chance.
The third play is the INT over Wilson’s head. Just a frustrating play, I’ll leave it at that.
These things happen and the team had a poor game yet still had a chance in the 4th quarter. These three plays are the ones that I find fairly egregious, hopefully they’ll clean this up in time to beat the Vikings this week.
