I would jump on the OC IF we had a great QB.

 

We don’t. OC can call all sorts of plays but if QB has no touch, over throws short passes and under throws long passes, Coach Walsh couldn’t look good.

Cool you would think if we had a bad QB we would run in the redzone instead of stupid passes?

That makes sense if you don’t consider NDSU narrowly escaped last week. Our defense is getting stronger. If our offense can find their groove again we will be just fine.

what about the stitcher?

[SIOUXFAN97]

we could argue the sam and baker question...

did sam and baker suck or did they not mesh well with their first 5 oc's?

maybe ike and jerry arent' a match made in heaven but eric pointed at jerry and said he gives us the best chance to win a game and ike is being bone headed about how to best use jerry?

jerry sure as hell didn't call some these bone headed plays we've seen the last few weeks...where is the guy that had kleiman and the bitches in the small apple wishing for the end of the game (which ike crapped but...)

Well, of course we’d be better if the players were better. That’s always obvious. But for now, the QB is coached by said OC, all year, day after day. They are connected at the hip. You can’t throw the kid under the bus if the coach could be enhancing their play. 

One of the things that the UND radio was saying is how last few weeks he has been staring down his primary receiver. He spread the catches around in the 1st half of the season. Now he is making it easier for coverage to read his eyes, and he is trying to force things into coverage instead of any check downs. Like the opposite of QBs of the past who just went to the check downs all the time. 

 

Also not sure why we keep running the RB out behind the LOS and throwing a dart at his head that has seemed to not work more than it has been productive. He isn't hitting him in stride like a swing pass, seems half the time SS is back peddling trying to grab the ball that is either in line with him or behind him.

agreed....the short passes have these guys momentum going towards the sideline...gotta catch it...AND turn your body uphill hoping that your not gonna get your knees blown out or head taken off...and then the sideline comes up really quick

what happened to te U?

Not to rag on officiating but this is the 4 or 5th game where officiating has been suspect at best.

Seems to be especially obvious when to go south of the Mason/Dixon line.

Someone mentioned Jerry focusing in on one guy. I think it was the first 4 games or so......like 9 different people caught passes? Seems like we were really mixing it up when the offense was running well.

He definitely checked into some of those plays in the ndsu game, particularly at the goal line. 

I doubt you know their checks, so this is just an assumption on your part. 

Maybe they need to limit that for a game or two and see if that helps slows things down again.

Simplify the playbook for Jerry and emphasize the run game. That will give our sophomore QB a chance to reset, settle down and get back to basics.

Between the crappy TV production and meager team performance,  wasn't that fun today. We got rid of the SU loss hangover,  and still got a win. Get back home and regroup and let's light up SDSU next week.....and sneak into a 7 seed.

Dengs catch was a beauty , he should be targeted way more
