Go Mizzou style and take off the gloves.

It's not the gloves my friend. I say just surgically remove their hands and implant clubs, they'd catch the same way either way.

People seem to be expecting Lee to play like a marquee NFL quarterback. Nearly any college game you watch, you're going to see ducks, underthrows, overthrows, etc etc. Lee is nowhere near a college marquee QB, but he's playing fine today. It's sad, but at this point people are willing to jump on him for any tiny mistake he makes.

Agrred.

Dude! It's not just his playing ability! The entire offense is struggling! Zac Lee is the general, the leader. I don't see him taking control of this offense from a leader stand point.

He needs to get on these guys. It should not always be the coaches who has to get on these guys.

This offense has no identity and they have no leadership on the field!

Bring the leadership and the identity will show up!

Very true, case in point. Tommie Frazier was not very popular among the other players becase he would get in there faces and tell them what for.

Alright, and who is that leader? Green? Is that why he's riding the bench and not out there playing?

Im agreeing with that.

It's Iowa State and we are losing @ have. We have scored 7 points. The O is not fine.

Spell check.

And you guys are unbelievable. You are watching us move up and down the field, but bite ourselves in our own a$$. Instead of complaining about the lack of ball security, you say our offense is crap.

Cover the ball, problem solved.

250 yards of total offense

Again....Iowa state at home. I don't care about the excuses. 7 points is unacceptable. Just like the inability to score TD's in the Virginia tech game was unacceptable regardless of how many yards we had.

Again, 3 turnovers.

I don't care about who we play. You have 3 turnovers when you are driving the ball and THAT is unacceptable.

250 yards of total offense, 3 turnovers, 7 points. Pretty self explanatory what we need to do.

So a spelling error makes someones point of view irrelevent? Good logic.

Maybe, who knows. At this point and time we have no leadership on the offensive side of the ball. Sorry to play devils advocate though.

Stop turning over the ball, and finish drives.

Well, are offensive coaches havn't exactly given me reason to trust their choices or leadership either!!!

He was also playing catchup and the defense knew he was going to throw.

That's got absolutely nothing to do with locking on WR's and allowing DB's to jump routes which he constantly did.

 

[huskerpt34]

Turnovers are the difference. I think the last 2 thows before half the receivers should have settled into the zone instead of running through it. You run from man to man and settle in zones. The tv showed Bo yelling to someone on the sideline and it wasn't Lee. Just my two cents.

 

[clone]

put green in.

the clones need the help....

without arnaud and ARob, the game will turn as soon as nu quits shooting itself in the foot.

3 turnovers and only down 2 points.

PUT CODY IN!!

 

[EbylHusker]

My understanding is the coaches said the QB starting position was not set for this week. And yet we see Lee again, so obviously they are seeing things in him that are absent in Green. Unless you all feel we have another Callahan situation on our hands, where the coaches are lying and misleading us?

 

[Mohyza]

We have an extremely young team and they are going to make mistakes! It's obvious that our offense is in a funk and the last thing we should do is go away from what we have been practicing all week. Sure, it would be different with Green in but different doesn't automatically translate to success! The team has to be patient and not start forcing things, let the game come to them and be ready to make (not force) plays!

Really? I didn't see green throwing in the flat. He was looking to move the ball downfield in a hurry so he was locking in on the reciever that could make a big gain. Besides this argument is pointless because I want green in for his running ability. I'd like to have a running game.

Nice stop there Cameron!!
