…no candy coating anything here.
This was one of the worst passing game displays, tempo and clock management that I have ever witnessed.
Coming into this game, I had stated my concerns regarding the passing game in the first 2 weeks of the season, and unfortunately I was right on the money.
I don’t know how in just the span of a few months Mario and Gattis managed to ruin a gunslinger like TVD. But he looks like a totally different QB. It’s almost as if someone kidnapped the real VanDyke, and replaced him with a ****** doppelgänger.
QB: I feel terrible for TVD. We went from an uptempo offense that was simple, but extremely effective, with quick reads and routes in the passing game, to an offense that requires the WR to run for several seconds before the pass is even released. If I’m TVD, I’m ****ed, and let these ***kers know it. NO RPO’s or rhythm throws. Just terrible.
Grade: C+
RB’s: Our RB’s are not game breakers in this offense. It’s designed to churn out yards, and wear down our opponents. Parrish and Knighton did what they could, but as I stated before the game, this line isn’t built to bully defenses like aTm’s.
Grade: B-
TE’s: Overall played pretty well, even though Mallory’s holding penalty on that last drive killed any chance that we might have had. They should have been targeted a lot more, specially Arroyo and Skinner. Our WR’s are hot doo-doo. Bad game planning by Gattis and Mario.
Grace: C-
WR’s: An abomination! Pathetic! Soft as baby ****!
Grade: F
OL: Played better than I expected, considering the defense that we were up against. TVD had all day to throw on several occasions, but either he was out of rhythm on his throws, or the WR’s dropped the pass. The run blocking was solid for most of the night. Zion’s hold on the last drive was a killer.
Grade: Solid B-
Our defense gave a heroic effort, and should be disgusted with Mario, Gattis, the play calling, TVD, and the WR’s. They gave us a chance to win all game long, but the offensive coaches and the HC refused to help them. Steele called a brilliant game. A wasted effort is an understatement.
DL: Played a very solid game overall. Had some mistakes, but did yeoman’s work in holding these ***aloons to not much. The muffed punt by #2 was horrible. I feel bad for these kids. They played their hearts out. Taylor, Agude, Jackson and Moultrie played really well.
Grade: B-
LB’s: Our LB’s played very well in my opinion, all things considered. They made several TFL’s, and did a good job overall containing Achane and Amari Daniels. Flagg and Smith played what was probably their best game as Canes.
Grade: B
CB’s: Again, another unit that surprised me. The CB’s, including Ivey, played tight and aggressive coverage for most of the night. They limited the passing Aggie game, and broke up a number of passes. They also tackled well in space.
Grade: B+
S: Kinchens and James Williams played lights out. They covered and tackled really well all game long, with very little being given up by them. They also did a good job on Johnson when he tried to run. Not giving them an A because they didn’t have any interceptions.
Grade: B+
Special Teams: Putrid performance by the Field Goal unit. Unacceptable to have such a poor performance in such a big game. Tyrique’s blunder ended up being huge, as it led to a TD that should have never been. We would have only been trailing by 1 at the end, and would have only needed 3 to win. With the way our offense was shytting the bed, this was a game killer, to say the least.
The punting unit and KO coverage teams played well. This is the only thing that kept me from giving the ST’s the lowest grade possible.
Grade: D
Coaching: The play calling and clock management by the OC and HC were atrocious. They played not to lose, instead of to win. If they don’t make some serious adjustments to the WR routes and scheme more rhythm throws for TVD that take less time to develop, we will be a 4 loss team.
Steele and the rest of the defensive staff were ready to play, and had a great game plan. They played tough, inspired football for a majority of the game. Strong and Addae in particular had their dudes playing at a high level all game long.
Grade: B
Final Analysis: What many of us feared is now evident after only 3 games. TVD has regressed to unthinkable levels. The tempo is sloth like. The WR’s are soft, and can’t get any separation. They have hands of stone, and don’t block well downfield. I wonder who the WR coach is? Oh, that’s right, it’s the same OC that schemes and calls this abomination of an offense.
I already stated it, but will repeat it. If we keep on running this same bullshyt, Fred Flintstone offense and Mario refuses to play modern football, this team will lose at least 3 more games.
Neg away.
P.S. - and to the lunatic that said a couple of days ago that we would roll, 48-10.
