I struggle with rooting for this team. I’m assuming anyone good is going to transfer. The ‘team’ piece seems lacking. Disgusting lack of discipline and accountability (I don’t need a lot just enough to know not to run on the field or tackle using facemasks). The OL sucks.

I actually thought the O line was pretty good yesterday and has shown nice improvement. In fact every position group played well yesterday including the QB. The problem is the personal foul penalties. We probably score 17 more points without them and that doesn’t even include going full retard on the blocked field goal.

He's fine until he fucks up and does stupid shit that makes you lose.

Did Rogers run onto the field to celebrate before the play was over?
Did Rogers block a defender below the knees outside the tackle box?
Did Rogers have a late hit/unnecessary roughness penalty?
Did Rogers miss 2 FGs?

Rogers brought the Mike Leach curse of big stats with him

 

[RaceBannon]

The stats that matter are points, third down conversions and wins
He's oh for three

 

[minion_doog]

Just goes to show how much of a shit coach Fisch is.

How much of a fuck up Rogers is.

I must have missed Rogers being the OC. Rogers was fine and has been every game.

Some of his passes today looked slow and wobbly, like the miss to Jackson in the back of the end zone on 4th and goal.
Also 2-12 on 3rd down is never fine

That receiver/QB disconnect is unforgivable. Jackson 4th and goal pass was tipped

You guys just don't get it. In this system you have to learn how to lose before you can learn how to win. It's a proven formula from Fish's time at Zona.
UW is just reaching the master level at finding ways to lose and are ahead of schedule. There should be a lot of winning coming up...sometimes soon.

 

[HHusky]

Rogers is okay, but good for one fumbled snap under center per game. The NFL will have noticed that.
Fisch's play calling is shit.
The defense has been pretty good, considering health and departures.

 

[WilburHooksHands]

carroll and belichik have actually been doing fantastic jobs aside from the occasional on field felony

 

[houseofpain247]

Belichick is doing a master class with our defense given the talent he's got on the roster. It's the offense's inability to finish and the ill-timed penalties that are concerning.

Stats are for losers

They are, but it's better to put up these big of stats than Jimmy Lake or Sark on the road stats

 

[WoolleyDoog]

I'm usually not a stats guy but a yardage advantage of the size with no returns given up, no turnovers, and not even explosive defensive plays - zero sacks or TFLs is just confounding. Never seen anything like it.

18 points and red zone bed wettings. QB is a position where you can make up for others mistakes, he seldom does.

The offense doesn't need Rogers to be a world-beater right now. What it needs is more discipline and better redzone execution along with more creativity to stress the defense. I get that UW doesn't have Penix, Odunze, McMillan, Polk, Bernard, and Westover any more but it does have a better RB (Coleman), another good RB (Davis), and should be getting Quentin Moore back. Latu is a very tall TE who should be targeted in the redzone if he has a mismatch (start him in-line as a TE and then motion him out).
I haven't seen both Coleman and Davis on the field at the same time. It has probably happened once or twice but I'd like to see more of it since UW's quality / experience really drops off after Boston, Hunter, and Jackson. Rogers is more comfortable in shotgun so have him flanked by Coleman and Davis. There is a lot of funk you can run out of that, including having one of them in the slot and motioning them in or vice versa.
I don't want to get to a point where Belicheck goes all Buddy Ryan on Carroll / Fisch and tries to punch them out for screwing up the offense.

this backs that up. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a team dominated that bad statistically win

 

[WoolleyDoog]

Rutgers did win a few key stats:
7/15 on 3rd down UW was 4/16 on 3rd and 4th
Penalties 6 for 69 for UW and 4 for 31 for Rutgers and many of UW's were backbreaking and 2 for 10 of Rutgers I think were just false starts before a punt which didn't end up mattering.
UW 1/4 on FGs, Rutgers didn't end up even attempting one after the block/penalty
Rewatching also forgot how after getting stopped at the Rutgers two it at least felt like well we've got them pinned and they immediately on the first play gave up a 40 yard run.
