For those of you kicking around Thor, the dude is ONCE AGAIN under huge pressure every damn play. I want him to do better but WTF??

And his receivers cannot get open or catch when they are. There is fault all around.

Yea and Roberts dropped a big

My main concern goin forward is secondary. Really deep on depth chart at this point.

 

[BigCatFan19]

Seriously, corbi, I appreciate your optimism but this is a horrific showing so far. I see nothing so far that would indicate the coaching staff planned at all for this game. We are not Saban and Alabama... we actually need to scheme against opponents. Clearly Utah did.

Thank you - this is painfully obvious to those who watch football. Hopefully most of country is busy doing something - so we are not Purdue

Missing Hall and Thompson and I'm sure the Fitz rumors aren't helping, as well as several staff members eyeing their transition to EIU.

The potentual and real coaching carousel appears to have had an impact. Not sure why we have to watch an awful unimaginative offense from McCall for year after year.
The homers on this board claim he is awesome because his offense broke the top 80 this year. If Fitz does depart, it will most certainly mean no more McCall and i doubt anyone would pick him up. Offensive version of Coach Colby in my opinion. I just havent seen any evidence that McCall is good.

It’s a long game and if any of you chicken littles even had a remote clue what it’s like to be part of a team you would know that things can change quickly as long as you stick together and stay positive. You guys are ready to quit on this team after half a quarter. What a bunch of losers. Luckily the NU players are not.

Who said I quit? I stated an obvious fact. Stop putting words in my mouth jackass.

Plus, from what I have seen I am not at all confident we turn this around. We shall see.

 

[FeralFelidae]

Big, gutsy stand by the D.

 

[BigCatFan19]

Nagel without pads on - seems to be done for the evening

 

[Alvious]

I'm just glad the makers of that diabetes drug told us that drinking plenty of fluids may lessen our chances of dehydration.

 

[eastbaycat99]

Would be nice to break a successful run right now.

 

[scru]

I'm gonna put myself in posting timeout for now. Corbi is not wrong... I am quick to go negative. Going to take a lot of adjustments and heart to pull this one out. I'll try to sit back and give the team a chance to show what they are capable of.

 

[phatcat]

If art going to go 3 and out every time, just give it to Bowser every time. Might wear them down

After watching the Ozempic ad for the 10th time I’m ready to carry out whatever assassination Big Pharma has planned for me

Ever seen Brady beat a blitz? Thorson can’t read it and audible to a play to beat it, that’s obvious. Or we don’t have WRs that can. When Thorson has time he can be good. Pro QBs make their money under pressure.

 

[Figrating]

You can see McCall coming from a mile away...

 

[TheC]

Credit where its due.... heckuva' throw by Clayton.

 

[BigNUFan51]

Bowesr hurt now. This game is a gut punch

 

[phatcat]

Flynn, Big Ben AND Bowser. Wow

 

[Catslash]

1 Mississippi 2 Mississippi hand off ball

 

[Fitz51]

Wow.

 

[BigNUFan51]

Awful

 

[Figrating]

McCall gives away a TD...

 

[BigNUFan51]

Prediction that is last points they score tonight. Embarassing

 

[Catslash]

Kicking game is on

 

[TheC]

What an awful, unimaginative playcall by McCall.

 

[HawkCat]

Flynn, Big Ben AND Bowser. Wow

Kind of unreal. And the play calling in the red zone, OY!

 

[BigCatFan19]

At least FS1 acknowledged the bad play calling

 

[Alvious]

McCall gives away a TD...

Did McCall tell them not to block well? Or tell the receivers not to get open?

 

[FeralFelidae]

Awful

We got points. Not awful. The D seems to be playing better. Chip away at the lead and keep making plays on D. Stay in the game.

then you have no clue what you are looking at.

 

[BFDCat]

Can anyone really support McCall any more? Jesus, Bowser up the middle failed 10 times so he tries it at the goal line twice?

 

[DaCat]

Prediction that is last points they score tonight. Embarassing

Thanks. Your post guarantees we come back and win.

 

[BigCatFan19]

Now with Skowronek and Nagle out for the game... Somebody needs to step up

 

[Figrating]

Did McCall tell them not to block well? Or tell the receivers not to get open?

Must pass but refuses...

 

[corbi296]

Face mask on Utah QB. No call.

 

[mcdadenets50]

And Shelley is the backup QB.

 

[corbi296]

Can anyone really support McCall any more? Jesus, Bowser up the middle failed 10 times so he tries it at the goal line twice?

LOL.

 

[corbi296]

We are getting beat on both lines of scrimmage. Until that changes, no amount of play calling will work.

 

[FeralFelidae]

Well, defense looks gassed. Need to hold them to a FG here.
