Has BA noticed we have a viable running back????

I'm soooooo pissed at the way the game was called.

First Series:
1st & 10 - 5 yd run
2nd & 5 - 4 yd run
3rd & 1 - Pass (not even attempted)???? Sacked... practically untouched rush

Second Series:
1st & 10 - 5 yd run
2nd & 5 - 2 yd run
3rd & 3 - Pass (not even attempted)... sack, untouched again

Besides the first two positions (and why we didn't run the ball on the 3rd & 1, I'll never know), We pretty much completely gave up on the run. About 40 pass attempts (including sacks) and only 19 rushing attempts... When Ben is playing poorly, the O-line is not picking the pass rush, the weather is not favorable for passing, and we were never really that far behind, why... oh why do we give up on the run.

Everyone played a terrible game, especially on off offense (the defense was not terrible. They played poorly in the fist half, but stepped it up in the second... 13 points is never a terrible defensive game... just not a good one considering the competition).

Receivers dropped balls, the line looked like they were not even trying. Ben played terrible. And BA's play calling was god awful.

Very disappointed Mendy did not run more and very disappointed with the empty backfields. That was just an invitation to blitz.
