GP1 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Have had success running left. Seem to have blocking scheme figured out. Run left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosAngelesZipFan Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 I don't understand that call at all-- a pitch to Hundley w the entire BG team stacked on the line? He's not that kind of runner. Terrible play call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible play call.Overall I am very displeased with 3rd down calls tonight. I dont mind that actual play call, but not with that personnel (aka Hundley).

LosAngelesZipFan Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Exactly. One of the things that is really obvious to me over the course of the season is how much a mobile QB that is a genuine run threat would add to things. During the PSU game there were a bunch of opportunities for Pohl to run and pick up major yards, but he clearly had been told not to do it-- I thought so he wouldn't get injured. Then, in the Ohio game, Woodson had an obvious run opportunity at one point but pulled back and threw into coverage. Please, more of that triple threat backfield. Do that until it doesn't work.

LZIp Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 this clock management is damn inexcusable. Its happened multiple times this year in these situations. WHY NOT SPIKE IT AND TAKE A SHOT AT THE ENDZONE TO END THE HALF?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balsy Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Last play as the drive, this is why people question Pohl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balsy Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 You don't spike it because it was 4th down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosAngelesZipFan Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 good lord, what horrible clock mgmt. total disarray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balsy Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Pohl needs to be a commanding QB. He didn't get the first down, time ticking down. You run up to the line (who was already lining up) and you snap the ball and throw a hailmary to any WR running down the field. If people want to know why the coaches question Pohl, this why.

Balsy Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 I like having Pohl back, but under pressure you gotta step up. Pohl is not stepping up under pressure. So far pohl under pressure in this game = Interception, clock runs out of time. Need better play second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msee92 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Seems to take a loooong time to get an offensive play in from the sidelines - that whole process needs to move faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 My only beef with play calling is they had some success running to the left between the center and tackle. They seem to have the defense blocked. Let's get back to that. Running right has been too difficult and they aren't getting everyone blocked.I have no problem with the pass plays called. More passes over the middle. Need to do a better job of catching. I know it's raining, but this is a big game and guys need to produce in big games if we are ever going to become anything other than pretenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snap the ball, and throw it to any receiver streaking towards the endzone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
