My "deal" is the people missing the forest for the trees: QB play has sucked, but it's far, FAR from the only problem with this team, and people think a RS Freshman is going to come in, sprinkle some fairy dust, rub their tummies and make everything all better. 

IT COULD HAPPEN!

 

[HuskermanMike]

Should have just had Luke roll to the right or left instead of try a flea flicker.

Punt was great and no one down there to tackle...

 

[DefenderAO]

Painful to watch. But McCaffrey has to be the future.

Agreed.  Time to move on from #2.  

Everyone clamoring about Luke going backwards...did you see the Mills pitch?  Was it the ally-oop play?

 

[mwj98]

Keep Luke in. He runs determined and looks decisive. Martinez looks lost. 
 

i figured first aeries would be off. New cadence, etc. leave him in. Lets see what we got. D needs to pick 6

 

[NebraskaHarry]

I'm not going to say Fire Frost, but I will say Boo Frost.  This team is straight up dog s***. Get it figured out.

People don't think QB play is the only problem, but it is stupid to not try someone else at this point, as it's the most important position on the field. Improved QB play can make up for bad s#!t elsewhere.

 

[Micheal]

I don't get the flea flicker play call with a cold qb coming into the game. Why push things right away? 

 

[El Straino]

Oh, THATS what a screen looks like

 

[Redux]

Frost's play calling with Luke feels more like internal sabotage 

 

[DefenderAO]

Will urban meyer be bored in 2 years?

I thought he was trying to protect his mental and physical health?

 

[huskerfaninbuckeyehell]

Luke should  have been given the 2nd half and time to get in a rhythm not starting at the end of the 3rd quarter and on top of that a stupid gimmick play deep in their own territory. Frost is just out of his depth and why was Lubick hired exactly?

 

[PaulCrewe]

Shawn Watson had better game plans. 

Well duh,

Your talking about the GOAT

 

[HuskerMan]

Calling my shot here.  If they score a TD here the game is done.

No one is missing the bigger picture. We have multiple issues, some unrelated to QB. But if your QB is poor, nothing else matters. People have reason to hope for better from a young 4star backup who has made big plays already.

The best way I can describe our offense is it doesn’t seem like we are trying to get first downs or score. It’s like we are just running plays 

No rhyme or reason to play calling.  No ebb and flow.  Throw sh!t out and see what works.  It's a joke.  In year 3 it's not personnel......
