The last 2 drives were freaking awful. Every pass was bad. The completion to get 1st and goal was a bad pass that happened to get caught by us. He lost the game, periodQuote:

Gonna learn how to win games like these.
Yeah, Shapen was great. F'n Montana out there missing on all 7 of his last passes. No way I give him credit for an overthrow that happened to be completeQuote:

If the defense was sharper we probably win. To act like benching Shapen is the answer because we lost in OT to a playoff team is wildQuote:

This season is a just bowl or bust. Let the freshman take his lumps. He will be better next year with experienceQuote:

Anyone blaming is the D is brain dead. Seriously herpes on the brainQuote:

A few of things:
1. The Ferrie miss was massive in hindsight.
2. We are going to win 5 no matter who the QB is, go with Kamario and see what he can give you at this point. Shapen is not going to win you any games and he may well lose one. He is the better QB at the present moment but Kamario has a much higher ceiling. You are not making the playoffs anyways so play Kamario and see what he can do well, needs to work on, etc so we know for next year.
3. Hutzler has improved by leaps and bounds and so has our D but our inability to wrap up late cost us. We would have had them 4 and 3 or 4 with the game on the line and we let the WR weasel out of it to a 1st down.
4. If Manning picks off the Hail Mary we may win. There was nothing but green grass ahead and he had a 10 yd head start on anyone who could have caught him.
The D played great. But they also got 42 hung them and on TN last touchdown drive couldn?t make the plays to keep TN out of the end zone. Not sure how that?s any different than Shapen not scoring in OT.Quote:

If you didn't watch, just say so. They gave up 27 in regulationQuote:
