Clock Mis-Managment

oregonblitzkrieg · September 2018

The coaching staff went down in my estimation and is now questionable until proven otherwise.

A mental dwarf could have managed the clock better than the coaches did on the final drive of regulation. Run the clock out, punt the ball and defend the field with about 10 seconds left. Win the game.

But that's too fucking simple and not any fun. Forget that, lets give the ball to a freshman RB and have him try to punch his way through a bunch of grasping, groping Stanford fags who are going to do everything they can to try to pry loose the ball, and did.

Strike One Cristobal.

Nice link, but you still have a coach who persists in using a QB that eliminates any chance of you capitalizing on your window of opportunity to do something.

People forget that Peterman bungled the clock in the same way a few years ago at Arizona.

Jake Browning lives for running backwards in the pocket. All of his hard work at that finally paid off.

But he learned from it maybe. I have low odds on Cristoball being functionally capable of learning.

He didn't fuck up. Saban, Dabo, Meyer, Carroll, Belichik, Parcells, Lombardi, and Jesus go for the 1st there. It was 2nd & 2. A freshman fucked up. That's what freshman do. TBJ was dinged up apparently and the only people left on the roster to run the ball were freshman.

No one besides Jim Harbaugh calculatedly punts the ball up by 3 late. You're being a fucktard.

It's not clear to me that Mario bungled anything on the drive. When the day comes that you can't hand the ball off to your running backs. Without calling that play high risk, you're fucked anyway. And unfortunately for Oregon, the only running backs to hand the ball off to are freshman. Where the kid fucked up wasn't fighting for extra yards, because that's where the probability of getting stripped goes up exponentially. But this idea that handing the ball off and keeping it on the ground to potential he get a first down, or at least keep the clock rolling, is fs. Most coaches make that call. The fuck up is on the kid.

I realize that down voting or what the fucking a Moster post is HCH101, but this post is spot on. Completely fucked hearted argument to suggest that handing the ball to your running back in short yardage when you're trying to kill the clock, and hopefully get a first down, is somehow a huge mistake. The kid fucked up by struggling for extra yards. That's where it happened. It's not that difficult.

On the other hand, when Peterman made that mistake, he had already been a head coach since b4 whitey was hunting Geronimo in the mountains of New Mexico. Mario's head-coaching experience consists of trying to make chicken salad out of chicken shit at FIU. Of all the many things I've ever read about crystal balls, stupid is not one of them. And, if you turn your head for five seconds, he'll fuck your wife. The guy still has those swarthy Cuban good looks. And you know it @Swaye !!!

So handing the ball off to a running back in short yardage to kill the clock is clock miss management? You with OBK on this?

How the mighty have fallen.

I haven't seen anything to be upset about with him as the head coach. I haven't disagreed with anything he has done four games in. Yesterday was 100% player error. Snapping the ball and not fumbling are player issues.

The recruiting it there, the S&C is there, the penalties are under control, and game management has been good.

It's not like he is in year five praying to Allah to hold off ASU at home. JFC, that's a fate worse than death.

Doogles · September 2018

You should run the ball, but also grab the RB by the nutsack and say two hands on the ball, if it's not there go down and live to play on 3rd and short.

Taking a knee is playing not to lose. Ask Harbaugh how that went last year.
2 yards in two plays and you win. You want to build toughness and a culture of winning, you don't take a knee.

You do need to micro manage the key players thought processes though.

Honest question: Shouldn't all of our? players be tackling and holding the opposing players? Holding doesn't reset the clock so why not just hold the entire play?

Doesn't sound classy.

But yes, that's the best strategy to do in that situation.

That is exactly what I was thinking of. It isn't Nebraska classy, but I was thinking Browning was going to get hit and fumble.

Without obks support Cristobal is basically a lame duck

Oregon could have literally handed the ball off to Standford with 15~ seconds to go in the exact same spot with zero timeouts. Instead they gave it to them in the exact same spot with 1 minute to go and a time out.

It’s not as if Oregon had played a clean game up to that point handling the ball.

You can name the one time kneeling the game out didn’t work, I’ll show you the 5 million times it did.

Herberts first down ended the game.

Howdy, Stranger!
