np_husker Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Burkhead was all alone right next to the endzone nobody even close to him and he catches then drops the ball Same with Niles Paul, right next to the endzone, the ball goes right through his hands.... 2 point blank touchdowns given up Thank you. It's about time someone calls out REX. Everyone's hating on Helu, Paul and Kinnie (deservedly so), but feeling sorry for REX? C'mon now Rex is as much to blame as anyone else. let's not go giving him a pass cause he's white. (Yeah I said it!) Giving Burkhead a pass because he's white? That's the dumbest comment on this entire board! Burkhead has made very few errors during his Husker career. Yes, he made a huge one yesterday, but Niles Paul makes mistakes EVERY SINGLE GAME. He is totally overrated. Don't bring race into this. Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Burkhead was all alone right next to the endzone nobody even close to him and he catches then drops the ball I guess Taylor throwing the ball to the moon and Burkhead having to look up into the sun didn't help either You would be better off saying it hit him in a bad spot. That is more accurate. Hit him right in the hands. It did but there was no need for Taylor to put that much air under the ball That is no excuse. A freshman in the biggest game of his life that is criticized weekly that he can't throw the ball, threw some beautiful balls. To much air under it? Sounds like you're looking for an excuse to blame martinez. He hit them in stride, division 1 athletes on a top 10 team. Catch the ball. Not looking for an excuse to blame Martinez OR Burkhead. I merely pointed out that Taylor put a ton of air under the ball he threw to Burkhead and that there was no need for it because he was wide open and was not that far down field. Link to comment
cscott2win Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Count me in the group that is not impressed with Niles Paul. I just don't get what they see in him. Burkhead and Kinnie make a lot more good plays than bad. Generally they have been very sure handed. Link to comment
tman Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Worthless overhyped POS Wow. Piece of sh#t huh? You know, we label rapists, murders, child abductors in this category. This guy is a football player that has trouble catching the football in pressure situations. If you get that bent out of shape over it that you take away his humanity, then maybe you should not watch football anymore. I can understand if you think he (choose)...SUCK, STINK, LAZY, LOUD MOUTH, OVER HYPED. Whatever pertains to his performance on the field. Niles has issues catching the ball. But you seem to have deeper issues to call someone a POS. Yeah he may suck at catching but he sure seems like a more well rounded and balanced person than you do. Link to comment

I think that very selfish individuals that care more for themselves than their team to be in that ctegory as well. Run your mouth and can't back it up in any situation gets you those type of comments. Stay humble and go do what you are given a free education to do and you don't get those type of comments plain and simple. POS might be a little to far IDK. Link to comment
WCHusker Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 Stay classy, classiest fans in football... I'm so tired of hearing about that BS. Tell that to everyone at the game who was incessantly booing and chanting bullsh!t. Our crappy receivers let THREE sure touchdowns go RIGHT THROUGH THEIR HANDS. What a joke Link to comment
RedNLeader Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Butthead??? why in world start giving burkhead sh#t when we know he has been one of the best players on the team this year...i know that he should have had that ball caught for a TD but dam! Kinnie has also been stud for us this year...he's the wr that we have this year...not saying that i wasnt upset or pissed when he didnt catch the balls yesterday...so im not ready to start bashing those guys!! Niles Paul really really really!!!! What in the hell are you doing calling for the ball during the past week when you cant even catch the simpilest of passes...you are exposed to be one of the best in the big12 this year...so if you really want to be that guy then catch the dam ball!!!

I was a little hot under the collar last night and the race card might have been a reach, but I constantly read people sing the praises of Rex and I'm not really sure he's done enough yet to earn it. I'm not a Rex hater by any means, but he doesn't excite me like the rest of you. Link to comment

Our BCS wrs can't catch those balls becuase they bounce off their hands? Heh, just more mindless excuses thinly veiled to diss our freshman qb. Oh well...... Link to comment
krc1995 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Here's how just catching maybe two of the beautiful ball changes this game into a 14 point plus victory. Ok, so the zone read wasn't working because they just key into TM. So the answer is to pass the ball. When those balls are caught, we are now more then one dimentional, and suddly the zone read is a threat again and Taylor probably peels off one of his famous scampers. Then we are also not playing from behind,which pushes Texas to open up more and take chances, and bingo-probably a turnover or two Add that to Thernarse wrapping one tackle and we can add 14, or possiblably much more, points to the board.

chrism Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Burkhead makes very few mistakes, so I'm not upset with him. However, I am amazed at how poorly Niles Paul plays every week. It's crazy! Bo needs to clean house with the players that don't perform. He has a lot of talent on the sidelines. That is the worst display of WR play I have ever witnessed by a top 5/6 team. Unacceptable. should not have been 5/6 Link to comment
shpadoinklehusker Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Catch the f'ing ball you suck I blame it on gravity. It always ruins my day just like it did with the Huskers. Link to comment
