Game Thread. Cougs vs Ducks

Its both. The plays are slow to develope, just blast straight ahead
Yup. They can’t hold their block on the delay shit. Quick hitters should go for 5 yards+ with a 5 man box regardless of how shitty your oline run blocks. You can fall down and get in the way and a decent back should still get 5 yards.
 
Also, Dickert should have called timeout once Oregon hit the redzone to give us more time.

Could have used it at the end of the half there
 
Oregon is largely rushing 3, so some design delay runs should work, we just need to get them Going downhill faster. Design runs by Ward should also be there. Through the air, the middle has been there but we need to diversify - 18 completions to 4 receivers, but 10 of those are to Victor and 5 more to Kelly. If they take away Victor, we’re in trouble.
 
Define good.
Ok, maybe not good. But…better.

Never expected they’d hold oregon to 17 at half. Or 3 in the 1st quarter.

They’re coming apart later in the 2nd quarter. Need to step it up and at least slow down the Ducks. No way we’re winning a shootout with them.
 
I'd trade my house for a FCKING RUNNING GAME.

Holy shit, this makes CMLs teams look like prolific rushing teams.

Just make one fcking 3rd/4th and short, pls.

All that being said, the D is doing OK and I'm stoked we're still in the game.

You mean a runout. The way the last couple of UO drives went, they will likely just stuff it down our throats the whole second half.
 
I beg to differ. I expected it to be close in the first half. Don't worry....Oregon is going to cover.

(I've decided to be completely negative about the team. Whenever I say anything nice...we f#ck it up).
doing the reverse jinx is someone else's thing on this board, but I haven't seen it this season for some reason.
 
Not surprising, they’re going to kill us with play action.
 
Holding on a punt that 99% likely results in a fair catch or touchback. Brilliant fellas, brilliant.
 
I like getting a stop, but I feel like it had less to do with our defense than it did Oregon’s receivers. I’ll take it…just hope it keeps happening, and the offense can keep things moving.
 
If oregon gets 7 on this drive, the game is over.

he could have ran for ~5 instead of throw that incomplete, then the 3rd down is much easier.

frustrating but still a good game.
 
F oregons fans. What a bunch of dumbass inbreds. They think our best defensive player is gonna fake an injury right before a critical third down. Christ you idiots.
 
Ballgame. Woulda delayed the inevitable but let’s not worry about the obvious block in the back…out of bounds no less.
 
we completely lack a scramble drill. what's it going to take for CW to put his foot in the ground and get positive yards?

We also lack any sort of D1 speed at the skill positions. WRs can't create space, rbs can't outrun or elude anyone. It's really becoming evident against the better teams.
 
The Cam Ward show…. All him all the time. Trying to be the hero every game.
When we’re behind, he’s like a kid on my sons flag football team. Looks for the long TD throw on every down. Even if the D backs off 10 yards, he won’t take the open receiver underneath.

Back to the air raid where meaningless yards take center stage. Objective of the game is to score points. Yards don’t mean shit and don’t tell me cam had a great game if we score 19 points.
