This is solid. I am not enamored with the scheme. We win, so I'm being a cuntflake, but waiting until the last couple of drives to crash your linebackers came across as arrogant to me. Our vaunted D line which get sacks all game long against slackers was not effective against the polygamists, and was getting Peter Northed on the run early. And....I'm having a hard time thinking Proverbs Wooshing is the best spy technique guy.doogville said:So, uh, when does coach k take some heat for drafting up a three man rush that features psalm as the spy? Literally gifting missed tackles to the opposing qb.

What's under estimated about Psalm is his ability to lunge. He can put his head down and leave his feet, catching tons of air, better than anyone. He can go 3-4 yards before he face plants into the ground. You can't teach that. Or you wouldn't but whatever.

The answer to the awful question is even worse because apparently we don't have someone ready to step up and take his spot.
The 64k question for 2017 will be who our de's are. Let's hope we get guys who improve like Pettis and Ross have at wr.

On the game thread I started keeping a "psalm wooching missed tackles" count.Swaye said:Anyone notice his tackling today? Oh, never mind, he whiffed every time he tried. Poor angles, low awareness, and horrible form. He is like a triple threat of suck.
He's one of those players who, no matter what he does, can't win you over because he just finds a way to eventually fuck up. -

@whuggy would be a worthy Friday sacrifice candidate.

He isn't totally ineffective as a pass rusher.Swaye said:I just cannot believe Psalm has defenders left. I mean I get that reasonable people can disagree, but if you think Psalm is good you are a goddamn retard.
He is worse than totally ineffective in all other roles. -
I thought Benning Potoa'e would get more snaps with Mathis continuing to be out and Utah having a big / physical OL but he gave up contain on a run in the 1st half and I barely saw him after that.
I still believe that roughing the passer call on Wooching was horrendous. He didn't knock Williams down and it looked like Williams tripped over his own feet. It was at least the 2nd bailout call by the refs that turned a 4th down into a 1st (the unsportsmanlike penalty that should have been a warning that early in the game or called on both teams was not quite as ridiculous). Those two penalties led to 2 TDs for Utah when they would've kicked an FG on the first and punted on the 2nd if the homer refs hadn't been so eager to help. Game easily could've been 31-13. -
He wasn't gonna go down until the olineman knocked psalm off balance which knocked williams down.HFNY said:I thought Benning Potoa'e would get more snaps with Mathis continuing to be out and Utah having a big / physical OL but he gave up contain on a run in the 1st half and I barely saw him after that.

it was atrocious, but predictably boobs defended it -
O'Brien wasn't great, but he's not Wooching bad. I hope he gets Psalm's snaps once Mathis comes back.
Potato jr is awful right now (he's a DL, a 4-3 DT). What happened to Grundle's Tevis? If he's been playing, he hasn't been doing shit. -
I've watched potato junior several times, praying for a breakthrough.RoadDawg55 said:O'Brien wasn't great, but he's not Wooching bad. I hope he gets Psalm's snaps once Mathis comes back.

Nothing. -
@HuskyJW and I have been warning you. Him and big bro were men against boys in high school. I'm hoping Petersen develops him because he's developing a lot of former shitty players, but I'm not counting on it.Passion said:

Yeah, there is still hope left for O'Brien.
As I understand it and with Mathis out, Potoa'e is backing up O'Brien and Bartlett is backing up Wooching. If neither of those guys end up being good pass-rushers in 2017 or beyond, the next best options could be Myles Rice and Amandre Williams (whose dad could probably crush me with a just one arm).Passion said:

You put a QB down after he's thrown, you get flagged.dhdawg said:

williams dove.
at best it's soft as fuck. As a referee you should have the situational awareness to not call that on 4th down in a close game. Situational awareness being something the pac-12 refs don't have a clue about -
Agree it was a bullsh*t call, and williams flopped like some long haired south american soccer player. But as Pete said in today's press conference, don't give the refs a chance to call that shit.dhdawg said:

A smart player, probably something that P-Salm is not, holds up the QB in that situation.
Winning the defensive player of the week award was the worst thing that could happen to P-Salm.
