Stanford wrap-up


For anyone talking shit on Smith for play calling, what the fuck do you expect? When you have a QB you know can't consistently make D1 throws downfield, never makes it past the first read in a progression, and starts running for his life when nobody is within 7 yards of him, how do you game plan around that?
I have the 4th quarter recorded, but I might just say fuck it and wait for the HH podcast to have that shitshow dissected.
D played great, from what I recall. Which isn't much past halftime. ST was sort of shitty (surprised me). At the end of the day, either we need to go with a different QB, or Miles needs to "get it." With yesterday's QB play we are a 7 win team, even with a punishing and tenacious D. Sark is a great recruiter, everyone says so. My useless as fuck .02. I need to get to Boston quick so I can drink this hangover away. Fuck off.

There's plenty of blame to go around on the offense. Everyone thinks they're a football genius and can correctly diagnose what exactly the problem was. It's Miley, it's the line, it's the playcalling. Blah blah blah. Nothing was good enough.
They have a bye week to figure this out. The past decade plus the bye week deserved a "can we beat bye" joke. Now we have a real football coach that you can expect to utilize the bye and fix things. And he better or it's going to be door ass out. -

Outside of the QB, on offense I was high on DWash at tb before the season but for the life of me I have no idea why he deserved to start vs Stanford. LColeman should be the first option because he runs downhill while DW and his clear fumbling issues would be a better change of back/2nd option.allpurpleallgold said:There's plenty of blame to go around on the offense.

How the fuck does this team not have one NFL QB in the wings after having an all-world recruiter/QB coach-OC as a shit HC after 5 years? Jeff getting snaps yesterday was stupid when Stanford was smart enough to know if Shaq/Jeff entered the game it was 81% likely the run was coming. -

Hi Kim! -
I'll still take Stanford's D over every pac12 offense this season. Dominant D-line, best open-field tackling by a mile, always in position to make a play. Their offense isn't special but it doesn't need to be. Shaw being arrogant against USC doesn't change that.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

Washington got 4 carries. Coleman had 14. It's 79 to 49 for the season. Coleman has played better for the most part and has been rewarded for it. Who starts isn't as important as who gets the bulk of the carries.Disciple_2_Hole said:

I disagree about Shaq/Jeff. The first time Jeff came in, Hall went for a 10 yard gain. The first play Shaq was in was a fake handoff that ended up being a fumble. Petersen was pissed about Lindquist closing his eyes and hucking it deep. He said it was a misread.
As for the rest of the offense, APAG had it right. It was all bad. Miles, the running game, the OL, the WR's, the play calling. It all sucked. -

It was hard to see if/how often the receivers were open during the game because I kept looking at Miles flailing around in the backfield and holding into the ball too long. A few passes were FS, like throwing to Coleman in traffic for 3 yards (WOW!). Offensive line has a Cozzetto hangover and a talent deficiency since 2000. I'm 27 and am tired of seeing fat fucks like Casey Bulyca and James Atoe, who never met a doughnut he didn't like.
I didn't see any of the players yelling at Miles a la Kasen, so if anybody can poast what they saw TIA.
Figure it out Peterman. -

Considering what Shaw inherited from Harbaugh, his run has been disappointing.
This bored has apparently never heard of Lloyd Carr and Larry Coker. -
Stanford is good, but not that good. They were good enough to expose a lot of our weaknesses, but that wasn't last year's Stanford. Definitely not Harbaugh's Stanford. So maybe that just goes to show how far we have to go. Luckily, we have a coach that can get us to improve over the course of the season. I still think we can win 10 games this year. Maybe it's the doog in me, but I haven't been impressed with many teams in the Pac-12 and I think we have a shot at a decent conference record.
Also, I think it should be said that Pete needs another offseason to really get these guys playing at (or somewhere closer to) the level that we expect them to. He knows what excellence looks like and what we need to do to get there. -
