Message: [QUOTE="cohenzone, post: 4734750, member: 504"] It’s like pro teams never get a play screwed up from what most here are woofing about. It was one freaking play. One player screwed up. Given that NC State (actually not too impressive) is supposedly the 2nd best team on the schedule, there isn’t much to take away long term quite yet. I thought Fagnano was ok, not terrible . One of his overthrows wasn’t. I think it was Houston, who is not a receiver, slowed down and the throw was a yard past him. He was pretty good at times finding secondary targets, Obviously the first drive was the best. I agree that more throws to aTE would have worked. But I think this game was lost on D, more precisely the inability to bottle up the QB. He sustained several possessions with his feet His throws overall weren’t anything special. It was obvious by the 3rd quarter how often he would keep the ball. We never adjusted. Linebacking was mostly invisible. Overall they were quicker or at least more elusive in key positions. Our kickoffs need to be much deeper. Overall there really wasn’t that much truly awful. We were definitely competitive. Let’s see how we do with this game out of the way and against teams we generally match better against. Traffic getting out. Whoever should be in charge of exit traffic needs to consult with Hollywood Bowl. They have the most efficient, orderly system of alternating lanes. Nobody cutting anyone off. It flows. [/QUOTE]
