Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Brownshorts threw a pick-6.

To John Ross. There is no other way to describe that abortion of a scoring play.

    If anything, Browning's pants shitting in the last third-to-half of the season is very promising for this program. We don't need to rely on him to win games, and are a complete team all across the board. Too many programs come and go on a year-to-year basis because they have hot seasons where the QB carried them, and then they eat shit once that guy leaves. That's not us. Browning is very good, but he's not a rare talent that seasons are built around. We're going to be great with him and we're going to be great once he leaves.

    Agree all. UW is in great shape, as long as Smiff doesn't try to force Brownshorts into being something he's not.

    The best part about that play is that ChrisPetersenWow.gif will probably be a thing for awhile.

    Huh?

    That was just a tremendous play by Ross.

    I went from having an aneurism to having a boner in 2 seconds.

    To his credit, he was visibly dismayed after the play - he knew he had no business completing that

    I like that he seems to know when he's fucked up on plays
    So now we're complimenting him for having an expression when fucking up?
    Recognizing you fucked up means you know you need to continue to improve. Under Sark everyone would have celebrated that (I can see just Sark chest bumping the players coming off the field after the play)

    Having said that, I would like to know why he has regressed a bit the last month or so

    Cause other teams learned from USC that you need to get in Browning's face. Teams like Cal and WSU don't have the secondary to pressure our receivers so he could throw a ton against them. If last nights game was against a shitty defense he would have lit them up too.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Browning and I think he has great vision of the field. But many of his explosive plays he under threw the receiver. Or the receiver was completely wide open.

    Let's also not forget that last night we had the most dropped passes of any game this year. Ross went all Kearse on us.

    I'm hoping with a month to prepare, we can devise a better scheme to get receivers open against a great defensive line and secondary.
    Saban will learn a lot from SC and CU.

    He will blitz like hell every down.

    Bama actually turns that one into a pick 6.

    IMO

    Disagree. Bama gets to Jake sooner and gets the sack.

    Maybe the fumble 6, definitely not a pick 6.
    Well played

    If UW has an Achilles heel, you found it.

    If Smiff had an epiphany last night, realizing UW is an equally good or better running team than passing team, and he should embrace and favor the run over the pass, then great. But I seriously doubt it. When his chips are the least bit down, he favors the pass over the run, usually more complicated (he thinks "deceptive") than they need to be, given the talent he has on the field.

    Last night was better, especially in the 2nd half, but there's still too much lateral running and passing that doesn't keep the opposing D honest, but instead fires them up and telegraphs a behind the LOS pass or lateral run is coming. If he knocks that shit off, and develops the precision short and mid range passing game, which is Jake's strength and a viable option because of our running game, he'll be way better off. Feels like I've waited a lifetime to see him balance the O to keep opposing Ds honest, meanwhile failing his players with unnecessarily complicated offensive plays they can't execute well. 40 yd bombs, anyone?
