Some have shit on him before. Maybe he sucks as a game commentator, I don't know.

I do however enjoy his segment on a shitty local Portland sports talk show.

His overall take on UW was that the coaches have completely fucked this season over all by themselves.

1. Redzone against Auburn: the speed option was the worst play call of the season, by any coaching staff.

2. Oregon: not going for the juggular at the end was the worst end game decision, by any coaching staff.

3. Cal, you were still beating them and brought in your back up for the shits of it which single handedly lost you the game. 7 points are more than 6.

It's not like this all hasn't been brought up before but the entire package deserves some thought. We?'?re not one of the 4 best teams but the coaches have single handedly completely and totally, desolatingly fucking fucked us out of a playoff resume with only 3 in game decisions.

    I have a doog friend who likes the three losses because it means we are where we are supposed to be. I keep telling him that the playoffs fucking matter regardless of whether you have a shifty offense, or whether you "deserve to be there". Doog about maybe getting lucky and beating bama in the semifinal. Don't doog about how we were meant to lose to fucking Cal.

    The speed option call is the main reason I give zero shits if Hamdan doesn’t come back.

    You can’t fix that kind of retard

    Had a front row seat for that abortion of a play.

    Apathy set in after that playcall.

    Been on autopilot since.

    You have a team built for west coast, pro-style offense: under center, 2 TEs, power run game, play action intermediate passing game, and we get is full retard...and by full retard I mean you’ve had success running this offense, yet you continually go away from it to do fly sweeps, lateral passing, predictable bullshit.

    From what I’ve seen, we are a lot better when we play with tempo and pace. We suck when we take a long time and think about things.
    Agreed. Tempo removes the thought and keeps it simple. Pro style at tempo is deadly...see 49ers 2 minute drill during the 1980s.

    I respect Joel as far as talking heads go.

    Regarding Stanford game, we? totally went into "don't lose mode" in 2nd half. RB run out of RPO every first down. No blitzing and minimal pressure applied. You can't expect coverage to hold up for as long as we? gave KJ Carta-Costello time to scan around and find his Paul Bunyan receivers and WTE's.

    We? have an anemic offense with a 4th yr starting QB and the UW's all time rusher. We avg 24.6 pts a game. That is a disgrace in this conference or any conference for that matter (90th in cuntry in scoring.). Oregon State scores more per game at 26.2

    Give jake to much time, he goes overload stars overthinking. His first gut reaction is usually right, but he over processes things

    That was the other interesting thing about listening on the radio

    Has an open receiver

    Hes scrambling now and DROPPED for a sack

    I started to find myself getting annoyed at our DBs until I rememebered QBs are allowed to make throws.

    There have been some questionable coaching decisions, but at the end of the day the main reason UW has 3 losses is that you just aren't that good this year. Cal sucks, you should have been up 35-3 at half if you were any good and then there's no room for coaching decisions to fuck it up. Same with Oregon and Auburn.

    Definitely not good, caz Pete fucked up his roster

    At its peak, Stanford's offense is impossible to stop

    David Shaw does a good job at shutting it down.
    David Shaw's defense for UW in the first half was phenomenal

    We played like total pussies in the 2nd half, Costello did drop some absolute dimes though

    I thought our? DBs had decent coverage and his passes were spot on - with our? QB I am not used to that type of accuracy
