    The dawgs could not sustain the running game against Rootgers, it's a concern to me at least.


    They werent really trying to though. Running games usually take off in the second half, when defenses are tiring down. Unless youre a sark coached d in case you get ran over from the start

    They win 48-13 they can go 0-12 on 3rd downs and wear pink tutus for all I care.

    does Lindy's -2 yard reception keep him in the running for whatever retarded watch list trophy he's on pace to win?

    When Lindquist lines up and takes a step back...they are going to throw it to him and he will launch it downfield to a wide open Ross or McClatcher.

    I am officially calling this play the Triple Lindy.

    3rd downs.

    Here are the third-down situations we(?) faced with 3rd down conversion rate:

    1Q
    3rd and 4: 43 yard TD pass Browning to McClatcher (1/1)
    3rd and 4: 0 yard run from Gaskin (1/2)
    3rd and 11: -3 yard sack of Browning (1/3)

    2Q
    3rd and 6: 5 yard pass Browning to McClatcher (1/4)
    3rd and 17: incomplete pass Browning to Daniels (1/5)
    3rd and 16: 5 yard pass Browning to Fuller (1/6)

    3Q
    3rd and 3: 1 yard run from Gaskin (1/7)
    3rd and 4: 15 yard PI on Rutgers (1/7)**
    3rd and 9: 10 yard pass Browning to Daniels (2/8)
    3rd and 4: incomplete pass Browning to Baccellia (2/9)

    4Q
    3rd and 5: -2 yard pass KJCS to Lindquist (2/10)
    3rd and 3: 0 yard rush from Coleman (2/11)
    3rd and 1: 6 yard rush from Dotson (3/12)

    **First downs awarded by penalty are not scored against 3rd Down Efficiency but it is included since it's a 3rd down play

    25% against a dreck Rutgers is abysmal, especially since 9 of the 13 situations were 5 yards or less. Play-calling really needs to improve on 3rd down.

    But how is our problem mental weakness?!?!?

    The thing that pisses me off the most about our? offense is that there is no flow whatsoever. Most offenses I can watch and conceptually understand what the are doing. Smith just seems to use a random number generator with his plays or he's trying way to hard to be some sort of offensive pioneer for shitty play calling.



    Either way I could run a better offense using the playbook from NFL Blitz 2000.
