Just because the tv was focused on the players involved in the play doesn't mean others weren't open. Dailey will need to improve his decision making.
I friggin can't believe it!!!!

We had recievers open on almost every play we ran, Joe just never saw them. That IMO is on him, not the coaches. And as Eric said that camera just focuses on the players involved in the play. I was there and we were open all night, Joe's just gotta see 'em.
No, that is the as much of the coaches fault as it is the quarterbacks fault. Bill has got to have Dailey read through his progressions in practice. Maybe its not the progressions, maybe its the play calling that has put Dailey in the bad positions. But it is as much of the coaches fault as it is the quarterbacks.

I don't think Joe's getting it. For what it's worth, here's what I posted in the "First Drives" thread...
"I think it's the scripting factor - and it isn't so much the familiarity of the plays, per se. I think that the coaches work with Joe on those plays to step through his progressions. Sort of a "Okay, on this play your primary is X. If X is covered, you go to Y. If Y is covered...". In other words, Joe doesn't have to think through the progressions for those plays to the degree that he does for the unscripted plays.
This is one of the factors that leads me to believe it isn't coaching. The coaches are preparing Joe. The problems arise when the scripted plays end - and Joe has to think through his progressions.
Ultimately, it's an experience thing. Joe may or may not ever "get it", but one thing to bear in mind is that he's barely more than a freshman. His first year all his snaps - what few he got - were in the option. Going through his passing progressions just wasn't taught. What makes him slightly more than a freshman is his exposure to the college game and the speed of the game, coupled with having the benefit of the spring to get a jump on the other quarterbacks on the system.
While that helps, it doesn't help on the experience/recognition issue. Assuming he can pick that up, he will do so only with game experience and reps in practice."

Let's see now.......Solich wasn't good enough..........college football is more competitive now even in the Big 12 (Big 2 and little 10)...........and Nebraska gets pounded unmercifully the same way the corn farmers used to flay other small teams! Get used to it Nebraska.........there are many many football fans in other parts of the country that really enjoyed this Husker debacle. Yes, Nebraska received its comeuppance. Let's see more of this! Really gratifying.
You enjoyed it why? b/c NU has been ridden with scandal and horrible people and the fans have treated you wrong in the past? or are you just jealous of our success and getting it done the "right way"?
since I assume #2 is the right answer, what would caus you to root against a team that is successful other than sheer jealousy and bitterness? those are not virtues my friend. can you really feel good about that? there are plenty of other teams out there to root against for all the right reasons, i.e. auburn, any of the florida schools, washington, colorado... on and on.. why Nebraska? seriously Im curious.

"Really gratifying"? really pathetic that someone gets their gratification off a teams demise if you ask me. Really sad actually.
So how bout you explain like Bob mentioned. What team do you represent? Probably just a hater of great teams. Get a life.
