Just watched replay

After that pick six against NIll have we thrown a wr bubble or screen of any kind?

I just watched a RB swing/screen pass where our starting TE got put on his ass by a DB and tackled Wilbon for a loss.

At least it wasn't a pick6.... #Progress

So Lee probably wasn't reading anything just throwing to a spot.  Both receivers saw the coverage and correctly went deep.

Yeah, that was my take too.

Forgot: It is inexcusable for us to trotting out the WR's we are and Tyjon Lindsey not getting a single touch. 

I agree - IIRC, they had three scholarship WR's on the field Saturday, Lindsey being one of them. Lindsey didn't have a single reception unless the participation report is deceiving me. Lee isn't distributing the ball very well and, given how poor he's playing, they have to find ways to get the ball out of his hand safely. Trouble is they've struggled to do just about anything well this year.

Pretty sure I read Lee only targeted three WRs.  Which would have to be Spielman, DPE and Rahm who actually had catches.

 

Unless whoever posted that stat meant only three WRs had catches but it was definitely worded as "targeted".

I noticed Lindsey's glaring absence, too. Maybe we're hiding him from Wisconsin.

With all due respect, how can anyone watch that again?  Rutgers might not win a game this year.

 

I'll wait until off season to see it again

That sounds right - I think I've heard that in several places the last couple days.

 

I struggle to figure out how they'll address it, though. The jet sweep game is spotty. All manners of the screen game have been inconsistent. They don't run the ball overly well. Many of the things a team can traditionally do to offset WR and QB struggles are unreliable with this team.

If Lee is (even only occasionally) basically just choosing where the ball is going to go before his eyes even see the field as the play develops, we'll be lucky to see the end zone a single time against Wisconsin.

Run the damn ball tomorrow night, Danny.

It doesn't necessarily mean anything but I know Young was targeted at least once...I think your point still has legs though.

Holy $hit. Just rewatched part of the game, the WR and TE's we are currently sending on the field is pathetic. 

 

Consistently playing Rahn, Young, Claussen....especially at the same time is disastrous. Ketter and Hoppes are getting killed at the LOS. 

 

Agreed. Hoppes is not playing good football. 

When you put two tight ends on the line for a power set to run the ball and neither is blocking well, you're asking your I-Back to run into a big cluster. We have done that over and over in the first four games. 

Tomorrow night's game is a big one for me in my opinion of Langsdorf. Either the guy adjusts and does something different or he doesn't. If he doesn't, Wisconsin will blow us out and this staff is on a 100% crash course towards being wiped out at the end of the year. If he does adjust, I'm hoping he roughly splits the carries between Wilbon and Ozigbo. Wilbon as the started, Ozigbo getting more carries in the second half.

Nebraska is rolling out one kick a$$ intramural flag football team right now @ WR and TE....and that is no bueno.
