Might as well clear the bench, Tedford. You have nothing more to lose down 35-6. View this as an opportunity for the younger players to get some game experience. This one is over.

yup they have given up and don't care

What have you observed specifically to believe that?

Denial much?

I'm sorry, there has to be something more specific to make a correlation between terrible play and getting outplayed with a lack of effort or attention

What exactly are you looking for? Do you want somebody to do a quantitative analysis of sweat precipitation relative to heart rate and score?

watch the game

I dont know what else you can blame it on. We arent "not playing well", we are playing beyond that. We are getting absolutely manhandled by a sh*tty team....again

How many more blowouts do we need to suffer before you think its more than "not playing well"

No, I just want something more than "they aren't playing well." You guys are conflating poor performance and poor outcomes with a lack of effort or drive.

Watch that last TD to make it 42. Only an absurdly obtuse person would even suggest they have not given up. Or a troll.

How about the Ole's by the OL. The RBs running into traffic rather than from it. The WRs not initialled KA running soft routes. The DLs continued bull rushing with no effort to shed. The LBs not wrapping up. The DBs covering to make the tackle instead of the breakup or INT. They are not playing hard.

The players are in a position to know what is going on inside the team - better than anyone else, except the ACs and they're not about to go public (does JT's super secrecy mean anything more to you than that he doesn't want opposing coaches to see his superbrilliant play designs?). This is the players' way of announcing that something's rotten in the state of Denmark. They are caught and are looking for relief.
