They were in the backfield...both blitzed

And that's why you play prevent D with a 2 score lead late in the game...

I realize they didn't have a great pass package in the game to run a play...but you run one nonetheless. The way our offense moves the ball, we can't afford to just give up a down at the 1 yard line and accept a FG. A little foresight would have helped MM here. He shouldn't have had that package in the game on 2nd and goal w/ no TOs left. He should have had a package in the game that could run both a 2nd and 3rd down play. This isn't rocket science.

Why assume a sack? We haven't allowed a sack in 6 quarters...no reason to think we'd suddenly get one there.

You're missing the point. They should have had two plays called in the huddle, the second one a pass play if the run play on 2nd down didn't work. On 3rd down no playcall is needed, get to the line, run the pass play and if its incomplete you kick the FG. Not even trying is ridiculous...I mean, if we're so afraid of mistakes we should just punt the ball on 1st down every series.

My god, how people forget Sue's role in all of this. Like she's a victim. I tried to explain to her why people were flaming her and she attacked ME. You know what, if she wants to sling mud, I'll sling it too. She was the rudest person in that thread yesterday, but yeah, she's the victim. She brought it all upon herself with her responses. Should I have been more polite and understanding? Yeah, perhaps I could have. But if someone is spewing that much venom I don’t feel the obligation to extend the olive branch back to them. People ribbed her a little bit and she flew off the deep end threatening people, calling them names, etc. Yeah, she's the victim.

That's the same thing I got, bwhahaha Cootiehog...

or he could mean he's "good looking" in French...

Anyone else think ICE and njsue would make a great couple?

If anyone should apologize it's you for devaluing all of our degrees...

bah, you edited it!

You had better watch out, or she may "apply to" you that special type o' learnin' that she likes to teach!

I was wondering why you keep using the terms "jerk" and "jackass" exclusively and then I realized that nobody had linked you to an online thesaurus so you could get more synonyms. Here ya go!

This photo answers the age old question, "What would Rob Johnson look like if he was an offensive lineman?"

Best line of the thread...I was actually in tears reading this.

Yeah, I'm not too worried about being effective though, I just want Mularky to play it safe on 3rd and long and avoid the turnover. I don't even mind if they just run it straight into the line on 3rd and longs as long as we're not trying to throw the ball over the middle of the field while the D sits back in a zone. Wouldn’t mind seeing a fade or two down the sideline on 3rd and long as well…anything with a low turnover percentage. Hopefully the running game and short passing game are efficient enough to keep us out of 3rd and longs. Though I am kinda getting tired of seeing empty backfields on 3rd and 4 or less. Perhaps I'm just really tuned into it after last season with KG, but it seems like we're doing this an awful lot this season as well.

I think she's "applying on" some of her English skills Tom...she's learnin' you! I would go out of my way to see her "apply on" her expertise in history. I can only imagine what it entails!

Another germ, time to get the Lysol out!

Why do you feel the need to put down those who are putting her down? Isn't that juvenile too?

I was discussing this with my wife...we've come to the conclusion it's probably the one Sally Struthers used to advertise for on TV.

I hope we're smart enough to simply do a few draws or screens (err, maybe not screens...) in those situations and just punt the football. Except at the end of games our D doesn't give up many long sustained drives...make 'em drive the field on us and see if Pennington can complete 73.8% of his passes with a 20mph gust.

If we'd draft a few 7ft tall WRs and RBs I think we could start completing those screens

Bah, thread killers!

Yeah, but I'm guessing those obscenities are part of the "family atmosphere" she's talking about!

I think you meant to type it this way: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you :fyou:"
