I was visiting my children yesterday and watched about a quarter. I?ve had enough of the Sylvester Leach offense. When you can?t handle a prevent D as an offense coach- you are doing it wrong. Stop with the Leach had bad 1st years ago Tech and Wash State- he?s had 20 years as a HC to figure it out. Not to mention TT was a solid program when he took it over. End of story.
So Moorhead left us with a solid team? Interesting.
100% agree 34, The Pirate had some success in the other two "Passing But No Defense Leagues"! I also quit watching after halftime, I've seen some bad football at Msu and this year is right there at the bottom.Quote:

Yes sirQuote:

Cool, nobody cares
Anyone who watched the last 15-20 minutes of the game can see that this offense will work with the right QB.
Throw out an offensive line that looks like a Chinese fire drill every snap. Despite their ineptitude, Will was able to make the decisions and move around to make the throws on the money. For whatever reason, the entire offense seemed to wake up when he went in. Receivers were getting separation and actually catching hard thrown balls.
Despite our OL struggling to block a sneeze, anyone with one eye can see a glimpse into the future. Even had A&M buddies texting me first half, asking what the hell our OL was doing. They even noticed we were not even getting a hand on the defense almost every play. I focused more on the OL than the actual play most of the game. It was as bad as I have ever seen. Just minimal improvement from the OL (touching a defender) will help this offense as long as Tyler Russell 2.0 KJ is not in the game.
We saw Rogers the previous week in a contested game, and it didn't work. I'm all for giving Rogers his shot, but he played yesterday in essentially garbage time... at 28-7, that game was done, finished, over.Quote:

Even while watching pregame warmups, you could see who the better player was. I posted this yesterday before the game started. Will was hitting the receivers in stride with firm passes. KJ was high and behind people even in warmups, with no zip on the ball. Something clearly is wrong. And from observations the team and crowd yesterday could see this as well.Quote:

People ask how defensive ends can get pressure while only rushing 3. They are SEC defensive ends that dont respect the idea we will even think about running the ball. Our response to that is leave our tackles on islands against an SEC defensive end. Dont be surprised when the defensive end wins some of those snaps.
I do agree about the effort level changed when Rodgers entered. I also agree it is a very telling sign when a QB has to pick himself off the ground.
Yep. And the 3 & out was a result of 3 passes behind the LOS, no of which produced positive yards. Getting rid of the ball quickly isn't necessarily a good thing. In the case of the last drive, I think it was easy pass with no read of the defense.
I guess they should hire you Coach.Quote:

Was “I gotta hurry up, get my coffee, and see what C34 thinks about the game last night..” No one give a shit...
KJ was holding the ball too long, rogers was throwing quick and didn't have nearly the amount of pressure that KJ had. Rouge Dawg good look! Rep given!Quote:
