I like Verduzco and believe in him but when I hear how much he coaches his QBs to do all the things you’re not supposed to (throwing off back foot, throwing late, throwing across your body), I wonder if he ever coaches them to stand in the pocket and make strong throws lol.

Scott needs to give up the damn play calls

Play calling is fine today IMO.  He needs a qb  that can throw and we easily score on that drive.

I’m ready for Martinez to come back... tired of the QuickDraw scramble show.

Just pull a Solich and run it every damn down until they can stop it.  Scott's got game.  Do this, build oline confidence and move on.

Our offense, even when moving the ball, is so awkward and clunky. 

 

We have no run game outside of the QB run game and have a nonexistent downfield passing game. 

If we never hand it off to a RB how are they ever going to a feel for the game?   Why does frost need to make this game so hard.

A little surprised they called that false start, to be honest.

i am considering the benefits of raking leaves with no radio compared to watching this game.

About every QB starting on a good team is a dual threat. Even TL can scoot. If he means someone who runs as a second option then I agree. 

[Jason Sitoke]

Wow. What a penalty 

[suh_fan93]

Our defense needs to show up.   McCaffrey needs to stop trying too hard to make plays.  Frost/Lubick or whomever need to start handing the ball off to their rb's and not asking Luke to do it all.  Still baffled at whatever our offensive scheme is at this point.

 

Also someone please teach Colin Miller about angles.

Are you s#!tting me with that call.

[Decked]

We are a dumb team
