Remember new rules are running clock even on 1st downs until under 2:00.

I love how we make sure to get the clock running on that 1st down play. We’re these guys out at Mother Fletchers all night last night? Is that even still a place? I haven’t been to dirty Myrtle in a looooong time.

We threw those timing routes all last year. I think it is Joeys best type of throws and we rarely do it this year.

I dunno I don’t think Clark goes for it on 4th and 10 inside the 30 if he knows it’s over

X Short was wide open on a free play and we missed him. Glad to see Short in the game.

We are incredibly painful to watch. While I am hesitant to toss coaches under the bus, all explanations lead back to them. Our guys look slow, small and with exceptions appear to have little fight in them or they are just not very good.

On defense, 3rd and five our backs play ten yards off the receivers. On options we don't cover the back or QB on virtually every play. They miss tackles, can't get off blocks, don't zoom to the ball very well and take horrible pursuit angles. The guys on the front three are beasts but everything else looks like crap.

On offense, the defense seems to know the play we are running every time. Pass plays and run plays seem to require extraordinary catches or effort from the running back for anything positive to happen. Without Marshall and KRob we'd be lucky to get a first down.

Pass route package seem to have no rub routes, crossovers or staggered depth (long short middle). Our guys hardly ever get open. I don't notice any pulling linemen or misdirection at all, no real option plays or run pass options. If we are running them they are not being executed or I can't see them through the tears.

What I can't tell is if we just don't have the players or the coaches haven't developed them or the coches are utilizing what we have.Whatever it is, it's ugly and painful.

3rd and 18 and our OL can't pick up a 3 man rush for a big sack. Now 4th and 31

Rough way to go out.
Dec. 2 can’t come soon enough.
