* If you're going to blame James for something, blame him for not hanging onto the ball. That was awful.

He didn't hang onto the ball because a guy who was bigger and stronger than he, literally ripped the ball from his hands. He should have fallen faster and not tried to go for those extra 4 inches. The short dump passes had been working up until then. The 3 and out was ridiculous. Plus, something's gotten into Rackers's head. He was money last year. This year, not so much.
