NU-Minnesota official first-half thread

[willycat]

Time to get points. This drive.

Go!

 

[NWFAN66]

Wtf

 

[Deeringfish]

Take the three points

 

[Alvious]

It's the good old "I don't know what to do on 4th down so I'll burn a time out" play.

 

[Hungry Jack]

I say go. Kicking into wind from 35 yards is very dicey

 

[Deeringfish]

Into the wind? OK I'll change my mind.

 

[willycat]

It's the good old "I don't know what to do on 4th down so I'll burn a time out" play.

Probably flipping a coin

 

[Deeringfish]

They simply saw the play coming

 

[Hungry Jack]

Should have run play action

 

[Sheffielder]

Why the f was that not a goal line set?!

 

[Alvious]

Thorson's been throwing darts all day. Why did we run?

 

[Fitz51]

Agreed with the decision to go for it, but what a bad play call. So tired of the shotgun on 4th and short.

 

[FanatiCat]

What was that?! Needed a read option there. Thorson wasn't even looking as he handed it off. If he did he could've pulled it out.

 

[phatcat]

That play was a joke

 

[Deeringfish]

Why the f was that not a goal line set?!

Wasn't it? We stink on the goal line.

 

[bjm989]

Take the three points

Would have been nice to pull within a Td

 

[Katatonic]

Don't mind the call to go for it, but wrong play called.

Would've liked to have seen a QB sneak w/ an option if Minny totally stacks the box.

 

[willycat]

They simply saw the play coming

Terrible call after that Fitz TO. Announcers are saying that play had no chance.

 

[phatcat]

Notwithstanding Leidners troubles, they looks like a better team on both sides of the ball

 

[Deeringfish]

Thorson doesn't ever seem to sell any kind of fake.

 

[KnottSlim]

Terrible call after that Fitz TO. Announcers are saying that play had no chance.

I agree, but at some point players have to make plays if they're to win

 

[TheC]

Our OL is so disappointing. They are getting blown up today.

 

[Hungry Jack]

I am in a very bad mood

 

[Alvious]

Minny's QB flat-out sucks. Can't believe we're losing to this team.

 

[Deeringfish]

I think we have a chance to win the second half by 10

 

[phatcat]

Maybe we will do better now forced into 2 minute offense.

 

[Hungry Jack]

For fkkks sake CT

 

[Deeringfish]

I am in a very bad mood

I'm with you

 

[Sheffielder]

For whomever was cocky about this game...

 

[DaCat]

Minny is not a very good team.

 

[Fitz51]

Wow. This is one of the worst halves we've had this season, even if Minnesota doesn't put up points here.

 

[Hungry Jack]

Bring in Alviti

 

[FLCat07]

Thorson really needs to get much better pocket awareness.

 

[Deeringfish]

For fkkks sake CT

It was a powerful strip from behind

 

[bjm989]

Our O has been foot shooting today

 

[Hungry Jack]

CT needs a timeout

 

[Alvious]

Possibly our worst half of football all year.

 

[Deeringfish]

Thorson really needs to get much better pocket awareness.

The line isn't protecting at all.

 

[Katatonic]

Minny is not a very good team.

But that doesn't matter so much if their D-line is dominating the O-line...

 

[bjm989]

The line isn't protecting at all.

He is not getting much time but given that he held it a little long that play.
