How Davis could be on the bench during 2 critical 3rd downs. And overall played barely over 50 percent of snaps . Im leaving this game irrate because this coach is not playing to win. His personnel decisions are a joke. He wants us to come and he doesn't put his best players on field.

Diaco publicly announced the first three games are for evaluation. He was not playing to win.

Yeah. I really hated how he told Davis to give the guy the ball and also, the fumble call to get behind 7?

Diaco is trying to win. We don't have enough players yet. Blaming this on Diaco is foolish.

Does that mean we are going to be playing to win starting next week? Boy, I'm really excited now! I can't wait.

I could be wrong as only watched it once but it looked as if the play Davis got striped, it was a throw behind him which gave the defender the access he needed to get his hands in there and pull it out.

I'd rather have Whitmer throw to Davis in double coverage than a bubble screen to Foxx for 1 yard.

I'm pretty sure Palatine believes that Diaco told Davis to give him the ball so we could practice KO returns.

How he isn't on the field for at least 85% of the offensive snaps is beyond me. Every other program in America has their top receiver on the field as often as possible. What the heck?!?!

Did anybody ask Diaco about why Davis wasn't in on critical 3rd downs during the presser?
