We got outcoached IMO. We never adjusted our attack.

Really don't think running more would've done that much. Tampa wanted us to run. They weren't gunna change or bring the safeties down any further if we just ran the ball a few more times.
They weren't going to allow any big plays. Pretty much every defense we face plays 2 high safeties now.
Really the only schematic thing we could've done I guess is just alot more short routes and quick game but Tampa was bottling that down too when we ran it.
Sometimes there's just not much you can do when your OL is all backups and you're facing a Top 3 defense with a very good pass rush who gets home with 4 and a good secondary and LBs.
Add in the 3 dropped TDs (Reek, Williams, DRob), Kelce's drop on 3rd down, and a bunch of penalties and this is what can happen.
