I was glad that Gary did not abandon the run game completely. Even on plays when we got stuffed, he could not continue to let Matt drop back on every play. Even the 2-3 yard runs are OK against a defense like the Titans. Keep the clock moving, get the second and third down plays from manageable distance.
Alex Gibbs is one intense mother. I saw Studdard on the sidelines with a notepad, and he was constantly writing stuff down, and Gibbs seemed to be barking stuff at Studdard. Not sure if he was being a scribe for Gibbs or what he was doing.
