Chad is indeed a standup kid and Teggart, at our tailgate after game, had his back. BTW, word is that Puyol is not yet ready for prime time. He needs the year of practice.
Waquoit is spot on. When your kicker misses three and is undoubtedly in a funk, you run a sweep in OT putting ball on steep angle? Horrible coaching move. Notice Temple centered ball for their kick. PP and GD seem to have a pattern of always thinking things will be just fine. They don't anticipate the consequences. PP said we were in great shape at end of Rutgers half--"no need to call time out". Expected CC to hit 52 yarder--from left hash--no need to get 5 more yds or center ball. Same thing yesterday. It's criminal.
With 5 min to go we have ball, but instead of keeping clock moving-- we snap with 15 secs on play clock. And instead of short middle of field passes to keep clock moving we sling it to sidelines, stopping the clock. Anyone notice our sideline pass late in 4th that had Vandy written all over it? Thank goodness it wasn't a pick 6.
That Nick Williams rant above was outrageous.That pass was off the mark. That's not an excuse-- Nick would be last guy to say it--but like the Welker miss in the SB, few wanted to mention that Brady's pass was off the mark too. All these kids are working their butts off and getting horrible coaching and motivation from this abysmal staff.
Finally, you can all sleep the sleep of angels. The big bosses are very well aware of our deficiencies, especially offensively and understand that football is king in any realignment arena. Lets just say I'm confident it will be dealt with at year end.
