I hate chasing points in the first half...just makes no sense to me. Shoot, early second half I don't like it either.

As bad as weather is a three point lead may be insurmountable

Wow SF just gave up.

They played it smart due to weather

he tried to float and give his guy a chance. every one was covered and there was no bad side if you toss an INT there.

The play call was bad.  It’s just that his throws seemed lobbed in there tonight. Maybe he’s doing that so guys would have a better chance at catching it?  Didn’t work with Hines and it’s been risky for the most part.  I’m probably just overly worried tonight.  Been a lot of dang nears…

Why go for two? we get the ball back in the second half.

Just another bonehead move by our coach.

 

If we just take the XP, another TD makes it a two score game. Now it will still be one score. Just dumb.

 

Frank is thee worst coach Ive ever seen at just managing the simple things. He acts like we can afford to pass up points. Its very frustrating.

I for one thing it’s *ic to go for 2 this early in the game you have no idea what’s going to happen the rest of the game and that one point could hurt us later. Classic Frank

I don’t hate the call to go for 2. I’m not a huge fan of the play call. Run JT behind Nelson.

Honestly, if we’re not going to go for PAT this game, then we just need to pound it. Have Doyle and Hines blocking for Taylor. This trying to lob the ball stuff isn’t going to work with the heavy rain and their defenders just sitting back. 

I thought they were gonna let Doyle & Taylor block for Hines on that one.

You may be confused right now but couldn’t we use an extra point against Baltimore?

It was the right move to try to go up 3.

I agree the play call sucked. And I would have just kicked it too lol... 

But coaches tell QBs (when going for 2) not to throw it away. Just don't toss a dangerous one into the flat that can be run back. A floater in the seam is more than fine. The Hines throw was perfect. You can't throw heat in the rain. 

Agree on the dang nears.... those are hero ball products. he just needs to settle down.

The QBs can’t get a grip on the ball.

Is the rain going to let up anytime soon?

hopefully not, we need to keep this rain going to help our secondary

No it wasnt. 

 

This stupid thinking already cost us a game this year.

We will have to agree to disagree but 2 point lead doesn't help you much when their kicker is making it from 50+

    • All teams have injuries, all fan bases thinks their team is the most affected.. There's at least 10 back up QBs starting right now..   Yes, this coaching staff is good, really good.   No, we will probably never have a entire season with all the top 22 playing 16 games, just like the other 32 teams, the reality.
    • I think we'd have 6 or 7 wins with Richardson. As I said, the only difference would be he'd have game experience by now and probably much more developed where we could make a playoff run in his rookie year. Maybe with Taylor healthy all year and playing we'd have 8 wins. We always seem to get the short end of the injury bug. 
    • Rooting for the Colts, but this is a trap game IMO. Taylor is out, we have never played Levis before and he will have motivation to try hard Vs us, The Titans are winless away but undefeated at home and they are playing at home. Grover is still out, and they have Derrick Henry who they will run down our throat.    I feel we will get kept off the field a lot with Henry on the field and Steichen will pass more than he should because Taylor is out.    Hope I'm wrong.
    • How is this injury-riddled band of ragamuffins 6-5?  Surely there are more talented teams with less wins?   How much of this "success" (because let's face it, as easy as our schedule has been, winning 6 games by this point in the season is an accomplishment) is because the coaches are busting their humps to get the players fired up to play and doing a good job of maximizing their talents to put them in a position to succeed?   I'd love to see what this staff could do with, for example, a healthy Taylor and Richardson for 16 games, not missing Stewart for 6 games, basically not losing all 4 of their top 4 corners etc.
    • I think they should leave FSU out. That OSU team was loaded that year and were clearly better than everyone even with their 3rd string QB. I hope it’s Michigan, Washington, Texas and Alabama. Those are the four best teams in my eyes but understand the argument for FSU. It would not surprise me a bit if tv ratings come into play with this decision. College football has become a business and people watch UT and Bama.    Fitting there is this much controversy right before they go to a larger playoff. There are 8 teams that all have a case to be in the playoffs and can win a game. Georgia, Oregon and Ohio State could all easily win 2 games and make the championship. FSU has a great defense and I’m guessing the extra time preparing for the bowl games would help their offense a lot.    On a different note, there is a lot of hate for the SEC bc they win so much. It’s not universal but there is a strong push from some to leave them out this year. I will say this, I don’t think there is a team in this country that can beat Bama and Georgia in back to back games. I think the gap is closing but not quite there yet.
