I don't like the play call to ruldolph. I would have rather seen a run with Keenum.

I'd run it up the middle with Murray on 3rd and 4th down

I think Diggs did a good sell job.

Gotta wonder if we shouldn’t have gone for a TD on 4th and goal at the 1.5 yd line... if we get stopped they are in horrible field position, and there’s a better than 75% chance we can punch it in.

Oh well, 3 points in the bank.

That's what it looked like. I think Diggs took a dive and drew a call he didn't deserve (not that I'm complaining). Let's hope we don't see any officiating calls like that against the Vikings today.

We had the match-up with Rudolph on the outside but I'd prefer a play-action bootleg if we're gonna pass it there.

Kearse is filling in nicely replacing Patterson this year.

We have got to get to the QB. Our pass rush is weak.
