It was a bad call but that is what happens when you complain about referees. Foley needs to be let go. He has put out a handful of game turds this year. Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 I'm pretty sure we didn't block a single gunner last night. In a game where you're playing field position and not going for blocks that is the dumbest f#&%ing thing you could do. It basically cost us the game on the "muff", but bigger than that, zero return yardage on how many punts??? Quote Link to comment

And they weren't guys up on the line. Quote Link to comment

He has put out a handful of game turds this year. Teams that constantly screw up and can't get out of their own way complain about the refs. It's a straw to grasp at. Handle your business like catching punts, catching passes, not fumbling 5 times and the refs don't matter. It's whining is all it is. All teams are affected by the refs. 1 4 Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 Something to ponder in this discussion. Foley is in the top 10 of Special Team Coaches salaries. Think about that. The results have obviously matched that. Quote Link to comment

I would already have the next guy lined up and ready. A team like us trying to get that extra win or two can’t just forego special teams. It should be a seriously high focus to equalize the game for us. Instead we continually play from a hole and special teams lost the game last night. Quote Link to comment

ZRod Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 Watching Vandy run a kick back for a TD; another reason we need a ST coaching change, it's a crime that we have a guy like Barney and we never had a TD on returns. 1 Quote Link to comment
Packerhuskerfan Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 I'm not sure why we always tried to return kickoffs, but never punts this year. Tired of starting inside the 20 on kickoffs and fielding punts inside the 10 when a decent amount of them would have went in endzone. 3 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 We are #110 in average punt return yards this year. All the way up to #97 in total punt return yards. We are #98 in average kickoff return yards. Quote Link to comment

We’re still trying to figure out the catching part, once we get that down we’ll work on the blocking and running it back piece. Should be there by 2027 3 Quote Link to comment
