    Pete is gonna watch the tape.

    It’s been written before, but it suddenly bears repeating: entering the game, Stanford’s defense ranked 127th nationally in opponent completion percentage (70.6%), 126th in opponent pass efficiency rating (170.60), 124th in opponent yards per attempt (9.4), 115th in passing defense (287.4 yards per game) and 111th in touchdown passes allowed (11).

    Stats are for losers

    There are no standards. After a couple drops, you should get pulled. After a couple games of bad production, pull them. It’s a results driven game.

    I know the players behind them suck. If they were any good, they would get in at least a little bit. It’s just depressing.

    puka does not suck, hunter got benched while the other WR did not
    I wasn’t paying a ton of attention to the personnel groups. Did Bryant get benched or come out for a few plays because of the personnel groupings?

    I would have no problem with shunted Bryant getting benched. He was pathetic in the first half and looked dead. Baccellia should have been benched a long time ago. While Fuller is the only WR that gets open, he has dropped way too many passes. He had 9 catches for 171 yards yet was still awful. It’s time to give the young guys a chance. It can’t get any worse.

    So much this. Our magic Asian nails it again. Fuller is almost good, but isn't, and the rest of them are trash. Play the young guys. It's our only hope.

    Senior wide receiver Chico McClatcher, meanwhile, has not caught a pass since the 52-20 win over Hawaii on Sept. 14. Nacua — a 6-1, 204-pound former four-star freshman — has been targeted a grand total of one time this season, and he turned that target into a picturesque 28-yard touchdown. And it’s not that Puka isn’t playing, either; the highly touted freshman receiver just rarely runs a route. Most often, he enters the game, blocks for a running play and then immediately exits again. This begs the obvious question: they burned his redshirt so he could block?

    probably was a broken play since freshman cant learn playbooks good and stuff.

    Vorel is the first Seattle Sports Journalist with a dick and some balls since Y2K. I love that guy.

    Jim Moore has balls too, even though he refers to himself as a beta male

    Yes, but he's a known idiot. Vorel isn't. Perhaps I should have amended my OP to reflect that - has dick and balls AND isn't mentally retarded.

    He has got a schtick, but he's not retarded. He's a contrarian.
