The definitive post mortem

All the chintangibles I thought this team had after the EWU were wrong. There is no swagger here.

Last night flipped our conceptions on the strength and competencies of this team.

As badly as the offense shit the bed AGAIN last night, it is conceivable though unlikely, that in-season fixes can be made. Eason more reps. Sit Fuller, Baccheli, Chico, etc and put the young guys in. They might[/s] probably are just as bad but at least it's a developmental investment playing them. Same goes for running back and perhaps left guard. Watty struggled. Ahmed got over 100 yards but never got the important yards.

Defense is more troubling. There are some major liabilities without apparently alternatives. Tryon against the run. With Latu hurt, I'm not sure who else could be any better. Kyler Gordon and Cam Williams were picked on by EWU, and Cal did the same thing, over and over. Kieth Taylor is a pretty damn good, but you never heard his name called. There's a whole other side of the field away from him, and teams will keep going there. Who else is there? Dom Hampton I guess. If we?re still Jerkin' for Jimmy, then we are led to believe that Gordon beat Hampton out. Not good. Linebackers, same situation. There's no one else.

Cal, fucking Cal, drove 74 yards, 2 feet and 6 inches with 2 minutes on the clock against OUR defense. That is not good enough, nowhere near it.

There's many worse defenses left on the schedule, but few worse offenses. All things being equal at this tim, it's a 7-5, 6-6 season.

That was all good but the record prediction. Washington isn't dropping 4 or 5 more games in this league. It's almost not possible.

Have you not been watching? SC, WSU, The U, and I'll throw In Oregon.

Miami isn’t on the schedule
 
The continual shitting on Ahmed is retarded, he’s really fucking good. Be mad at Bush for going into tight formations like a fuckwad on every short yardage situation

Do you trust Ahmed on a crucial 3rd & 2?

Would much rather have Newton in there on short yardage. I'd rather have McGrew in there too if I'm being honest, which I am.
 
The interior DL is the only good part of the defense.

Molden and Bryant do well too but have their limitations exposed when the rest of the team sucks

I thought we would all hate Mckinney before the season started but he apparently sucks so bad he is barely even on the field?

For the first time in a long time WE dont have a badass shutdown corner. They are all soft standard fucktards that cant find the ball, play soft coverage, cant tightly cover simple routes, and cant even atleast hit their guy hard.

Tryon is looks like he has never played football before. Every pass play he softly plays hands with the OT/TE and then tries to twist inside around the DT up the middle. Dude plays slow and soft in pass rush, zone coverage, and setting run edge.

Wellington had multiple plays where he somehow ended up facing backwards in the hole while the play ran by him.

The fact that Bowman and Manu arent the biggest problems in the front 7 is ridiculous.

Scratch that. With how things are going, do you feel like giving Ahmed the ball on 2nd & 9 is a good idea? What do you expect that outcome to be? I don't like it.
Click to expand...

Agreed. Ahmed has no business running between the tackles. His legs magically stop at the first sign of contact. Bush trying to implement a power run game while only sparingly using Dick was FS.

Ahmed running between the tackles. Tunnel screens to tiny receivers who can't block. It's shaking your head stuff.
 
To be fair...no one can keep reloading every single year without any dropoff. Early season is dumb. It'll improve.

Except... CHRIST

(Hint - those team's winning nattys every year)
Click to expand...

Yeah but no one outside clemson osu and Alabama can do it

And those have excellent supporting casts
Click to expand...

Worshington has been recruiting like Clemson the past few years. How many years now of 10+ four stars? I think about 4 years now? Over 40 four stars on the roster now. They should not have lost this game to Cal.

We always have one or two of these a year. My next guess is Arizona in the desert or Oregon State on a Hail Mary.

I'm shitting myself over SC. I started shitting myself over WSU last week, I'm now in full self shit after yesterday. The CUOG looks like they are playing their 9th game of the season already. Anthony Gordon looks to be for real. Slovis ain't no slouch either.

Thought Slovis did a tremendous job. Pretty poised for a freshman. Harrell's done a hell of a job with him.

Go study for your math test back.

Ahmed is a good back like Herbert is a good QB. They're front runners. They're good when it's easy.

He has terrible instincts running inside and doesn't break tackles. It's either space to run to or nothing. And he never seems to deliver when the pressure is on. That is what Gaskin was so good at. He delivered in the clutch even when there wasn't much there.

Ahmed isn't a bad back but he's a situational guy. He's not every down.

I stand with the creep
 
Ahmed also had one of the shittier drops of the night.
Click to expand...

Yeah was a shitty drop but at least the play was getting him the ball in a spot that maxes his abilities.
Eason needs to figure out how to put touch on short passes. You don't have any NFL receivers

Yeah, I liked that we were at least able to get Baccellia wide open in the endzone. Really maximizes his abilities.

Click to expand...

He does, but I'm not ready to bitch about that after 3 years bitching about low velocity passes.

The more things change the more they stay the same

The problem with rifling balls to dudes 5 yards downfield is that the catch window narrows.

This is why the leveling up shit is stupid and doogish. A lot of lowly ranked guys were already good. It’s always been wishful thinking to think the next batch of guys are somehow better because Biggins thought more highly of them in high school.
