I thought our running game was hopeless, but those two plays down by the end zone were impressive.

This qb will throw a pick today.

He isn't as good as Derek Carr and if Carr was behind center for VT today he could easily puke on his shoes and choke this trap game.

The Tosh Era: penalties and missed tackles on Saturday, irrational exuberance the rest of the week.

I cannot believe we shoot our selves in the foot more and more as the game goes on. It's like they get more undisciplined and play worst as the game progresses.

Offense wakes up and defense goes into hibernation. Terrible defensive series.

trying to keep us from getting to the two minute timeout. Essentially same as a timeout. Good call, I think.

Allowed us to use 2 min warning as TO and drive the field and miss the kick.

I actually think it's not as bad as other games.

we just gotta get off the field in 3rd and long.

if we can clean up penalties, our D would be good enough to win most games for us if our O is just ok.

AI speaks:

"When a football team consistently gets assessed with a high number of penalties, accountability is shared, but the primary blame falls on the head coach, followed closely by individual players and position coaches."

Playing against our "offense" in practice doesn't help

They let 25 seconds run off the clock before they called it.

I'm not quite sure what I'm seeing right now, but it looks like something called a "completion".

Because it's not required. Face guarding isn't a penalty anymore.

If Franklin is going to get away with holding on offense and PI on defense, every down, I guess yeah, he's a good coach. What is this?
