Not rusty--he has been mostly conservative since last year. In his first year, he was more gutsy--In one of his first games, I recall a call to go for a TD early in a game rather than take the 3. That was a nice error to make and he heard about it. Also, I recall a surprise on-side kick that worked and another one that didn't. He doesn't seem to have that risk-taking philosophy right now. Maybe that will change as we rack up some wins.
When was the last time anyone had confidence in Chad Pennington taking a team down the field for a TD to win a game when trailing with no timeouts and under 2:00 minutes. Our O was decent but we made a ton of mistakes on O. Favre has been with the team about 3 weeks not to mention the OL has 2 new guys on it. Nothing wrong with making the Dolphins score a TD in that spot and running the clock. People forget but in 02 we won the division because Wanstadt decided to get pass happy with the lead in the 4th quarter instead of running the clock against the Pats in the final game of the season.
