Garbage garbage. Announcer is totally right about play calling. Witmer is playing his heart out but getting no help at all in terms of tricking the D.

Lots of drops by the WRs today.

This is a total team loss on the players. False starts, dropped balls, poor throws and being ankle tackled.

 

[johnhuskies95]

Anyone who thinks this loss is on Whitmer is an idiot. There are a lot more pressing concerns on this team than the quarterback.

Western Michigan's defense is horrible. That might be the worst D we see all year, UMass included. So many open receivers...and we just couldn't catch or throw.

We just aren't a very good football team....and its not coaching

We all know that. These players are going to need a lot of practice and working out.

Wow.

I won't hit like, but I do agree.

First half wasn't great, but crazy enough, the playcalling was good enough to put enough points on the board to win.

Do people still think the skill position players are upgraded? Not one WR on this team can carry K. Moore's jock.

I was somewhat impressed by Whitmer's performance today. He seems to be growing as a QB.

The return of drops by WR is an even worse development

Can you get Stefon Diggs to transfer??

No eight men in the box. COACHING.

How much more open does Davis have to be?

 

[Palatine]

Oh, now there's eight men in the box.

Slow learners in the press bx.

Well, his 2 turnovers account for , at least, a 9 point spread, probably 13.

I was watching a different game then. Yes, he had some bad drops. He also made some bad throws. I am beginning to believe that our fan base (me included) is so unfamiliar with what "good QB play" is that we are desperately grasping at a few glimpses to hang our hopes on. He is trying his hardest, working his ass off, but I'm not seeing the growth.

And you think that fumble was his fault?

If any of the beat writers try to defend PP not being on the hotseat after this game I'm gonna lose faith. If I'm Warde I'm already lining up my candidates as soon as the final whistle blows. Sorry bit this loss is unacceptable.

It's rough, but yes. The ball was in his hand. It came out as a fumble. It was recovered for a TD by the other team.

In that sense, it is his fault. Whether or not there is anything that he could've done about it, I doubt it.

No offense, Flyer, but this is the dumbest post all day. It most definitely IS coaching. 2-3 drops does not equal players sucking. Every team will have drops in a game. There is no effort to keep the opposing defense honest. The idiot announcer is totally correct. Just like running up the middle every first down, passing every down with no variety is just GOD AWFUL coaching. Awful! It shows both a self-destructive stubbornness and a lack of the ability to adapt you plays to the players you have. And as for the O-line? There is no way the talent level has dropped this far. Implementing a new O then replacing the O-line coach with the OC with no improvement is evidence of just garbage coaching.
Am I right or wrong?

 

[uchusky32]

The fault is the coaches. Team wasn't prepared to play. Our offense hasn't got better. The o line hasn't got better. The d was flat in the first half. We don't make adjustments or can't and that's the coaches fault.

Very smart play by play guy.

Nice catch M Smith
