We had this fucking game. Indiana won but they played scared for a large portion of this game. We just don’t have the killer instinct to capitalize.

True, the play calling in first half made me so mad, a run on third and 7 and third and 10

Timeouts to punt, kick a field goal, and punt

Well the goal was to run on 3rd &10 so we would have a manageable 4th down, but we got 0 yards…

Shanahan likes to play conservatively in first halves and try to establish the run

Reminds me of just like Iowa. Played scared and it took having to open up to finally realize we can ball out.
