 Would have liked to have seen a screen or two. I have no idea why Love is not involved in passing game.
Very disappointing quote from Shaw after the game on KNBR: "For three years in a row, they beat us upfront". If that's the case, why not plan for it and figure a way to beat it. That's what great OC's do. You're getting gashed upfront, whatever happened to the screen? How about a quick out? How about a flare to Love? On one play, Love was wide open in the middle of the field, with apparently with a blocker. Costello hit JJ or Irwin for a first down. Great, but why didn't they go back to something similar out of the backfield to Love later in the game? Are his hands really that bad?

They tried some different things offensively. Moved the pocket a bit. Ran outside more than usual. The penetration by WSU line killed them.
