ZippyDoo Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago the same article, they wanted to avoid ohio's kick returner? the one they had been controlling all night long? giving the ball at pretty much midfield worked out great... that thinking shows little confidence in your special teams... that same article he once again makes the excuse " that this is what happens when you lose 12 of your 16 starters" as mike ditka would say, come on man... do better than that. every division 1 team lost starters. we are 9 games in now... haven't beaten an Fbs team and the talent IS NOT why you are 1-7. to me this sounds more like joe saying hey it's not my fault, my guys just aren't good enough. shame on him... no responsibility. bunch of excuses. shame on him for ever giving the impression that the talent level isn't good enough because they lost starters... 3 Quote
exit322 Posted 42 minutes ago Report Posted 42 minutes ago Looking at the stats (because I wanted to see how ridiculous the attendance count was - an announced 5479 isn't absurd, so...): It felt like they ran with the backs more than they actually did. But CB had 34 throws (Roggow 1), 17 runs (3 sacks, so 20 carries)...and Gant+Patrick only had 21 carries. That also probably wasn't ideal, given they were both well over 6.5 ypc Sure did feel like they used the RBs more, though. Guess Gant was just that exciting when he had it... Quote
