Huskerfan55 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 We have two other 4 star QB's on the bench and Riley continues to play a guy who is leading the country in interceptions. Why? 2 Quote Link to comment

In the Deed the Glory Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 No. He is married to Dee Riley. I don't know if he believes in polygamy, however. 3 Quote Link to comment
twofittyonred Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Well if he continues to ride the horse called tanner, I believe it will take him right out of Lincoln. 7 Quote Link to comment

He is playing worse here, by stats, than he did at Tulane. Riley crows by his game experience, he shows me nothing. He is the one guy that will kill Riley's slim chance to remain here. So, here we are, without a decent QB, again......this sucks! Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Needless to say, this situation has been a fiery disappointment. He's thrown more interceptions than TA did all of last year and he's leading the nation in interceptions. This simply isn't good enough and, after four games, the problem hasn't improved. He threw a pick off his back foot, he threw a dud of a screen pass and then immediately threw a pick six after the failed screen pass. I'm not usually a "put in the back up" type of guy, but, I can't help but shake my head at what we're seeing. 5 Quote Link to comment

I don't put a loss on a single play or player, but he has put us in some very bad situations and made if very difficult to win games. 1 Quote Link to comment

Undone Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 What's so frustrating in general is that it's just the epitome of our whole situation. We recruit two four start quarterbacks but start a transfer that's a junior that throws into double coverage constantly. Like, if it was O'brien doing it you could at least say, "Well, he's trying to get his bearings." But it's a Junior transfer. The problem is that this offense just can't work with a QB that doesn't check down. There are just too many passing plays in the offense. Langsdorf is completely asinine if he doesn't eliminate that stretch play from our playbook. Most of the time we run it, it honestly looks as if not a single one of our 11 players is good enough to execute it. So stop doing it. 1 Quote Link to comment

Even the announcers pointed out 'hey, maybe they should stop doing that play' because it looks like hot garbage. 2 Quote Link to comment

You mean the one where the Safety stopped covering the wideout AT ALL and blitzed into the backfield to disrupt the play like four straight times? Yeah, that's a little baffling. It's like there's nobody in the booth watching that saying, "Maybe if we did play-action on that our WR would be open for a big gain. We should try that." 2 Quote Link to comment

I don't really like to second guess the coaches, but even I thought Lee should watch from the sidelines for a series or two. You don't have to permanently demote him all at once, but let him cool his heels a bit and watch. It also gives your number 2 guy a few live game snaps for experience. POB is one play away from being our starter. Makes me scratch my head and say things like "dadgummit!" Quote Link to comment

Oh yes I remember that. I'll have to go back and watch some of the game but I also think one of those safety blitz was on a straight zone play up the middle and it went nowhere. Quote Link to comment
