No way should we give up that 68-yard TD run.  iVol, if you are out there, I think this is the kind of thing Dooley was trying to get the D to focus on with his "248 plays" (or whatever number) remark.  This D is talented but just has inexcusable mental lapses at times.  The FS should have had that QB run covered.

These types of lapses are typical of a young defense IYAM.   I think it's correctable and that as this D matures they are going to be pretty good.

All men dream: but not equally.
Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.
—T. E. Lawrence,
The Seven Pillars of Wisdom
