We just don’t have “it”

Right now you are so correct. Those early losses will be W's soon. Games like this will not happen.

But we need "it."

[Shawn-O]

“It” is game winning drives, whether it be the two minute offense or a 15 play 80 yard soul crusher (I’m looking 75 miles south).  Close games out.  Kansas State, Montana and USD all become wins.  
I’m way out on a limb on this one I get it! 😆

I wonder if Jerry's favorite band is "Panic at the disco"?

I'm calming down a bit. Need to understand that this team is still 2 years away from getting all the players this staff wants.

There's lots of good on the D, I think the QB is fine, but will have more struggles against better teams and I need to lower expectations for the next few weeks.

Can't have that many TO's and hope to W.

Not blaming refs and you can, but this team took too many stupid penalties today.

Is the opening spread next week Bison 14.5 or more?

This is an important perspective. This is literally the coaches first year at the helm. The team can only get better

After today I think it’s more like a touchdown or so

I love your enthusiasm!!! I hope to see us beat NDSU next weekend!!!

Nothing is guaranteed in this conference. 
We started our first series with 12 guys in the huddle. That is a QB fundamental, don’t step into the huddle until substitutions are complete. I don’t know if that rattled Jerry but he wasn’t himself. He ran well but he missed too many open guys. (I was afraid Bike Guy was going to post videos of his bounce pass or one of his overthrown balls to open receivers).  Having said that, Jerry didn’t lose the game for us. It was a team “effort”.  Penalties hurt us all afternoon. The other turnovers (blocked punt, fumble for a TD). Hurt us. Missed tackles hurt us. Poor coverage on KO’s hurt us. It adds up to an embarrassing effort against a capable team. 
Beating SU is possible but it will take a mistake free effort and we can’t turn the ball over. This week will be a big challenge for the staff to get these guys focused on a mistake free complete game.

Jerry just needed a little bit more on that throw to Tai and it’s an easy TD.

he had enough time on the throw...under thrown by 15 yards.

[Hawkster]

At least we won't have a Bubba style meltdown with 5 loses to end the season.   That said, NDSU is probably going to win next week unless something absolutely magical happens.

9th career start and he throws his first 2 picks in his career and it's bring on Simon....snaps last year would've been nice for Jerry to get a little experience....but nope

When are you going to stop your incessant whining? think everyone has felt Jerry should have had playing time last year. 
 

Jerry played poorly today. He missed too many open receivers and threw 2 interceptions that he normally wouldn’t. (His 3rd and 4th by the way).  
 

He is our QB and gives us the best chance to win. I expect him to play well next week.

Who coaches punt protection

seems like he is so slow,getting the punt off 

 

The Coach didn’t coach our player to do a “look out block” that’s on the blocker who wasn’t even a speed bump. Punter needs to sense that rush though and should anticipate needing to get off a quick punt.

these two int's were the first two that Jerry "threw'...the others were defections....

so who coached these bigs to just stand there and look like statues....what's the definition of insanity again?

Because you are so good at remembering bad things, make sure you share with us some of the many passes that were too far for open receivers today. 

[Hans8891]

Today was definitely not our best effort.  We can argue with play calling here and there but this game was lost on turnovers and bad penalties.  It was not Jerry’s best day without question.  He had all kinds of opportunities that he didn’t connect with and the god awful throw away floater that cost us at the end of the half will likely give him nightmares for a while.  Until now he has been very good.  I have every belief he will come back and play better next week.  We had some very poor tackling and angles we haven’t seen much of this year.  It happens.  We went from being an unknown before the season to a genuine contender.  Back away from the ledge.  Schmitty will get them ready to go.  It will require an exceptional game to get a win over the Bison.  As much as it pains me to say it, they are very good.  But it is at home in the Alerus and not out of reach.  The other two are very winnable games.  Need to get a big and loud crowd next week and not let anyone hear a word Payton says and not just on 3rd down…

there are missed passes and there are bounce passes....

every QB good or bad will miss passes but if you lose track of how many bounce passes a QB throws....that's not good.

Today had Jerry bounced passes instead of tossing them to the wrong team, we may have won.

I assume you mean deflections. If we have footballs defecting to the other team, we could be in trouble.

Those are interceptions for other QB’s, they are interceptions for Jerry. It doesn’t matter anymore you have your own world you live in. 

Jerry will play better, we need everyone else to get better too.

Only excusable INTs are balls off WR hands or Hail Marys to end halves.  
 

deflections off defense are bad passes.

nope....if your left tackle whiffs and you get hit on your throw and it gets picked off...hard to blame the QB. there are int's and there are bad int's...

both int's today were bad especially the second one. horrible

Get to the Alerus next Saturday! Best way to feel better about today is win next week. Need the Alerus LOUD!!
