I'm honestly surprised that we have the lead right now. Our defense has played superb, but sh#t, we can't throw the ball.

[manitobahusker]

heck i wouldnt let #3 throw either

[jamrinelli]

WOW Tmart was getting hammered by them!!!!! Saying Bo should NEVER let number 3 throw ever again

[HuskerInLostWages]

Man, other than Rex, the offense is playing like complete garbage. Beck's going back to stop doing what was working and try to pass with one of the leagues worst passing QB's. That slow motion they showed of Martinez throwing was just pathetic. It's absolutely painful to watch him throw the ball.

Well, we get the ball to start the 2nd half. Let's see what Beck brings.....

 

Thank God the defense is playing great (finally).

[nepolo7]

The Under is still in play

[Moiraine]

Why can't we ever leave a half without a turnover in the last 5 minutes? Learn to be happy with your lead and run the ball. Quit throwing the ball from the pocket so much.

 

But the D is playing great, so I'm happy overall.

this is what worries me EVERY game!!!! We will never be a top tier team if we can throw for a first down or hit open WR's!!!

LOL @ ESPN ragging on Martinez's throwing ability. 'If I was Bo Pelini I wouldn't let 3 throw it... EVER!"

They're absolutely right. It amazes me how he throws off of his back foot.....it's like Albert Pujols trying to hit a home run, but instead of stepping with his front foot, he moves his back foot toward the catcher. Results are going to be the same. Sure you get a hit every now and then and by some divine miracle, you may hit a home run, but you're probably going to be batting under .200.

Even worse, we can't run the ball. Our OLine is getting owned.

 

2nd half could change that though.....

 

GBR!!

[Foppa]

Well...at least things look more familiar....defense playing lights out, and the offense not knowing what the hell they're doing with an OC who doesn't know what he's doing...been living the last few weeks in the twilight zone, but now the world is in a correct orbit.

If all we are going to do is run time to let Carnes get time to play. T-mart looks pretty useless in this game and if we can't pass defenses are going to focus even more on the running game making it harder for Rex to run effectively.

He threw 6 passes. Beck isn't trying to pass it too much, and he's not "going away from what's working" because NOTHING is working.

He is even more of a horrible passer with those gloves on!!
