re: Rewatching the game - it's not just the OL

It's bad enough that Miles is playing checkers vs grandmasters, but even when he insists on 2 TE w FB sets, he doesn't have the personnel to run it.

Take a peek at #81 while you're rewatching. And keep in mind all the offers he had.

Shanked punts, KO out of bounds, not enough men on the field, TOs on 2nd and 7 that result in QB and RB running into each other and having to recover a fumble, and a passing game that never throws a route that has a receiver in motion.

I particularly appreciated the sideline route w 10 seconds left in the H that was high risk for a less than 10 yd gain.

It is embarrassing. And when we have to pay a premium to get Jimbo after already having him in position to take over 18 returning starters that have now been wasted, I want F King Alexander and Stanley Jacobs to pay with their jobs.

This! Absolute no change.. No improvement.. It's as if there was no off season and we just kept on playing. If miles just saying Faak it ? He's gonna go out like he wants to and just collect is $? Is he demented? It's really baffling

The kicking game is what I find hilarious. We know for a fact we can kick it deep just as well or better than every team in the country yet we didn't change a fricking thing mantra applied we still try for the corner kick and still get burned for it. Ab so fricking dillusional is this coaching staff.

We actually have a situation where the casual fan now has more football common sense than this brain dead coaching staff.

The cowboy Offense line would look bad too when they face a defense with 10 in the box

Still in the first quarter and have seen two egregiously overthrown deep balls.

I disagree. Both deep balls should of been caught. The INT and the deep back shoulder throw.

Also, I only count 4 bad Brandon Harris throws. The slant to Dupre should of been caught. It was low and hit him straight in the hands. And the comeback on the second to last 3rd down was high on purpose bc Dupre had the height advantage and the DB was right behind him, that pass also hit Dupre straight in the hands....

The Second series of the game all 3 throws really awful though. (*on 3rd down Pocic and Malone competently whiffed on thier blocks).

The rest of the throws are debatable and most should of been caught.

no shite. BUT, if the Ol would have done it's job we would have won THAT game.

our special teams sucked just as bad. at least the punter and kick off guy. we covered punts Ok.

Harris needs a diaper when he feels any rush cuz it looks like he shits his pants. Stay in the pocket and take a hit if u have to!! Take of running. Why wouldn't he use his damn legs. I wanna see etling and or Scott get a shot. Harris ain't got it. If I'm wrong then he should come back with a vengeance and be lights out sat. I don't see it happening

Harris moves even when there is a pocket set for him

Harris was not that bad.

are you really not seeing why the Wisconsin qb was successful?

He was 19 for 31 (61 percent - slightly better than Harris' 57)
The O line was horrendous.
The Dline was not very good.
The tackling was not crisp at all. And there were lots of missed tackles.
The cornerbacks played pretty well. Jackson, and White especially. Toliver was pretty good. He got run over on one tackle which takes away a little.
Jefferson was out of position or late a lot.
Adams was pretty good. He had a whiffed tackle on an open blitz. He should have had the interception.
I don't know how our offense looked good the drive before the pick 6, and then the subsequent 2 play "drive", but the rest of the time we couldn't get more than 3 yards a run or a sporadic completion.

Harris made two really bad throws, his first and his last, in the middle it's just a bunch of ignorant routes/plays being called, when we finally made it simple we scored calling simple throws to Dural for him to make a play
