why did we pass on 2nd and 2? couldn't we run for 2 yards??

This is the first game I've gotten to see and i'm not impressed with the OC at all.....oh well, same issues as last year....instead of running all the time, we throw stupid passes

Once again our coach (don't even know his name) blows it again. 2 losses on him. What a horrible hire...bring someone that will bring some promise to the team in!

run it for the 1st down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:
YES....horrible choice to pass late cost us against Vandy, and 2nd and short against a slightly tired D and we choose to pass AGAIN instead of running to keep the chains moving. Then, with a tough throw in the flat to try and convert on 3rd down that is horrible, we call the SAME Freakin' play, with the same result.

There are many facets that go into being a good/bad coach. End of game situations 2 games in thus far? Major failing effort in terms of playcalling. Luckily 2 games don't make a season, but doesn't mean I can't recognize how POOR it has been thus far.

It's that we have to run all the time. This team can't come back to win, because that involves stringing completions together.

Lousy play calling but also lousy blocking on the last two plays.

I have lost faith in this coaching staff, but don't forget about the poor effort by the QB's either. McEntee is awful.

Very disturbing. I think you really have to question coaching here. I never thought we would see these issues with this staff. I am ready to make Don Brown HC and try again. Scary.

I'm befuddled, the staff admits that QB position isn't a position of strength, yet when you need two yards you put it on the QB. With 2 yes to go we need to be able to stick in in their arse, not finesse it for 2 yds.
