Lafell and Flynn should NOT be starting.

I'm sorry I don't recognize the name? Are you the Bear or just hairy. You people who think you are coaches need to stop. How many wins do we have to have for you to trust that Miles knows his team. He wants to win more than anybody. The guys entire life is football. Not just a few months out of the year. He is football 12 months a year. I'm sorry if i got out of line here but I support him all the way. Ok, thats better now that I got that off my chest.

 

First of all Woodson is damn good QB and for some reason their 3rd string QB was running all over us. I do agree that our D was one of the reasons we lost the game, but to me the #1 reason is the play calling. Flynn should have never been passing the ball that much in the 3rd quarter. Explain to me this, C Scott has 7 carries for around 100 yards in the FIRST HALF!!! He and Keiland hardly ever touches the ball in the 2nd half. Why?!?!?! This point is the main reason we lost the game.

 

Flynn is just not right to me. There is something wrong with him that I cannot place. Zinger should have definitely caught that ball, but he is not known for catching the ball. We should have never been put in the situation to depend on him catching the ball. My main point is that we should have ran the ball 90% of the time in the second half just like on the last drive against Fla. with C Scott and Keiland and throw a little Hester and Murphy in there. Flynn is an average QB.

 

Nope :lol: Nice try though....

Later,:rofl:

 

That's crazy talk. (assuming you're talking about Brandon Lafell)

We ran 25 plays in the 3rd quarter. Flynn attempted a pass on only 9 of them. That's afulw close to 2/3 run vs. pass. You can't go completely one dimensional with the run.

Whatever. I've seen offensive lineman, D-lineman, and linebackers come in on goalline situations and make similar plays. He was in, because the defense didn't expect him to go out for a pass, and therefore was left open. YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE CATCH in that situation.

Yeah, I hate it when we're on the 8 yard line looking to put a dagger in their throats and go up by 17.

We ran it 65 % of the 3rd quarter (see note above), and most of the plays we ran in the 4th quarter, were trying to move the ball from inside our own 20 into scoring range with 4 and a half minutes to go. You don't pound Hester and Scott up the middle with that little time left.

 

We can debate a lot of things, but not that play.

You have never seen one of those guys make a catch above their shoulders (maybe even jumping) while running a slant route in the endzone. There's no way. That was a VERY tough play, and drops like that should be expected. Maybe draw that play up for Dickson (though it wouldn't work, since the play worked on deception), but it's unreasonable to think a blocking tight end makes that athletic of a catch. The throw was fine, the route was fine...the call was not. Actually, maybe it was. It's possible that we didn't expect a Kentucky defender to get in the route and force a high throw. In which case, it's a crapshoot between whether Flynn should have even thrown it to him or give him a chance to make the play. I like him throwing that ball. It just didn't work out.

Don't get me wrong, I like Zinger a lot. But just like wouldn't expect Mark Bruenner to run a go route, I wouldn't expect Zinger to make a catch on a slant in the back of the endzone -- especially up high.

 

I agree, it wasn't an easy one to bring down. But I don't think it was as difficult as he made it look. He kinda just grasped wildly at the air. Now I wouldn't expect Zinger to go out for passes very often, but in that situation, kinda like New England does with Vrabel, I think he'd work out perfectly, and I think he NEEDS to come down with that ball.

 

Fine, holla at me when Flynn is Tom Brady and that pass is wide open in the flat, hitting him in the chest like the plays that go to Vrabel. Maybe NE is using Vrabel all wrong anyway. Perhaps he should be a compliment to Ben Watson, rather than a combination of Brady's version of the Water Boy and Bubba Franks! (sorry for letting my Patriotshate show through. :thumb: )
