It was better in a lot of ways, but I didn't understand the play-calling in two instances: I wish they would utilize the wildcat on 3rd & goal from the 2, and I don't understand why they weren't throwing the ball downfield instead of out wide on that pick 6 before halftime, given the circumstances.

Puzzled me as well

Not sure what this week brings but a bad win followed by a respectable loss is an upswing for now.

Me too, but that's not really an egregious error. I think it would be very effective considering how our line did against their line. The extra blocker would help, and direct snap gets the ball to back quicker. However, keeping the QB on allows for PA or even just a quick slant. Consider using a wildcat with Kentera (high school QB) or Grady so that we could still use some pass plays?

Not sure either. That curl route across the field is a very difficult throw. I didn't mean to say the playcalling was perfect. It just was not ridiculously bad and worthy of a thousand facepalms with some moments worthy of praise.
