A Lot of Bad and a Little Good

IndayArtHauz said:
- Defense has 3 of its better defenders out and Heatherman had his guys locked TF in. Absolutely saved the season early. Blitzed from all over the field, with 5 different players, and when it failed it was because the blitzer whiffed, not the blitz call.

- Best game by Wilson to date, very consistent and problematic for Wake. If that level of play can be relied upon, across the entire D, I’d inch our ceiling up a little.

Now I’m going to slam it right tf down.

- Dawson needs to file a police report, because someone stole his family jewels and he let everyone know it. That man coached out of spite, I won’t believe anything different. He’s way to smart too not even attempt to have a target beyond the LOS for three straight drives, when he had a profound position advantage, and are one score away from the game ending. I’m ******* ****ed at how cowardly he called the second half. Absolutely disgusted.

- I’m not sorry, this OL is an awful pairing with this run scheme. You cannot run power with this interior set, I don’t care how much you believe in it. Stretch the **** ball, their DT is getting through anyway. You can’t win games with a first down efficiency rating of “flaming dog ****”.

- Also, one of two things is true: either 4 has regressed in his ability to pickup rushers, OR, this will shock you, THE INTERIOR CANT PICK UP THEIR ASSIGNMENTS TO SAVE THEIR LIVES.

- Mario peed down his leg, twice. First time was at half, second was that OBNOXIOUS FG kick. You go for it or punt. Theres no other option. You’re still only two scores up IF HE MAKES IT. Awful.

- Injuries. Injuries. Injuries. Injuries. I’m crying man, the injuries.

- I have a theory on what happened to Mensah, but I’m not Thanos and in love with Lady Death. If nothing else, Dawson must have gotten into his head and threatened to emasculate Mensah like the jewel thief did to him.

- WHERE IS COOPER

Was this a win? I don’t really know how to answer that, but we scored more than them. Which is always good.

Excellent synopsis.
 
We faced some adversity, and we won. I think we’ll be better for it. Sometimes a game like this humbles you a bit and you lock in. I’m not gonna pretend like I’m not concerned at all about anything…I am. But some adversity and still winning by 13 can be a positive.

It’s a long year. We are winning this ******* league. Just keep getting better. And no more weekday games, ever.
 
I get it with the screens, with what they were doing an attacking the edges a little...

BUT he got so stubborn with it....became predictable. Featuring Lofton was bizzare. Did have a great call with that blocking misdirection earlier but that will do.

Mallory over pringle if this is the run scheme (and we know it is) we use...
 
The unfortunate reality is after 3 games AND before our tougher opponents.

We are a 9 win team tops. Hate to say it.

This team is seriously not better than last year. Even with a really good QB.

We must heal up and make schematic adjustments. Even then I don't see a deep playoff run. Our best will be 10 wins after a bowl game.
 
Sorry to be the one to remind canes fans but Outside of Cam Ward year when was this offense dynamic? He was brought in to save TVD and it didn’t happen.. this offense have been vanilla since Emory beat Clemson and jacurri brown wasn’t allowed to throw a pass ! Dawson has always been non aggressive

We are currently top 20 in every conceivable category offensively while starting an entirely new line, new QB, and having played two road conference games.

Honestly I am not worried as much about the defense anymore assuming we get our best DBs back. It was patchwork and still did ok locking down the game when the offense fell apart. OL is the big big big big big big big problem
 
Went away from what worked. Zone beater was Toney. 2 high man was run with brown or fletcher.

Oh wait, they didn’t play much.

Jacobs had to ask Mensah the play twice.

Moore shoulder hurt
Mensah hurt
Fletcher hurt
Toney hurt
Brown out
Pringle hurt
Wheatley hurt
Lyle sped his way to the bench
OJ out
Antonie out
Lucas out
Moten dislocated shoulder came back in.
Am I missing any?

@LuCane were all those injuries worth you attending and breaking your negative streak?
