It's not conformation bias. It's consistency. Watch how Alex attacks the 4q. On every single play of the last 3 drives that ball is out of his hand immediately. Maybe this year he's sprinkling a deep throw here and there. But in that middle part of the game you see lots of pump fakes and third down coverage sacks. Two games in a row we hit a huge middle of the game rut. In both games our offense responded only after we hit a point where we were nervous the defense might let it slip away.
I have complimented Alex when he plays aggressive all game long. Yesterday was game managed. So was new england.

Well, they aren't likely to just mow down drive after drive against a good defense.
