  1. Oh I forgot to add a snarky comment about us all having PTSD as fans
  2. 50 points (and that’s with 2 turnovers and ridiculous 4th down calls) should be more than enough to beat fucking Kansas. Shit, if you’d told me before the game that we scored 50 points I’d have assumed Casey got some meaningful reps, not that we won on a walkoff field goal. Offense was not the problem. Heck our offense is the only thing that’s currently keeping this from devolving into 2015-2016 levels of shittiness
  3. Then that raises the issue of if TH nutted up and fired Orlando midseason, who would be in charge of Defense? Naivar and Washington probably wouldn’t be any better
  4. I was ignorantly supporting Orlando before last night because of what he was able to do in 2017 and at times last year....but there are NO excuses for the way we looked last night and our overall regression in tackling. No matter how many injuries we have we shouldn’t give up 48 points to KANSAS at Home. Fire Orlando. It’s not like he’s even that heavily involved as a recruiter, right? At least Beck pulls his weight as a recruiter. What does Orlando even do?
  5. “Proud of how our guys fought” Something about “our development as a program” and being able to win even when we don’t play our best “*loud gulping water sound*” Did I miss any?
  6. My personal favorite was when Kansas kicked it out of bounds and Brooks suggested they were doing it on purpose. I mean, it’s not like we have Devin Hester back there returning kicks.
  7. Belichick or bust
  8. Reporter: "How much of it is fixable?" TH: "All of it." Well then why the fuck is it not fixed? We're in week 8 of the season and have been regressing since Okie St.
  9. Is Chris Ash still in town? He couldn't possibly be worse
  10. First year was the playoff loss to Georgia. He fired Stoops halfway through his 2nd year.
  11. I could see this as either we come out on a war path and easily cover or we get up big enough to put Casey and some of the backups in, offense completely turtles, and Kansas makes it within 2-3 touchdowns
  12. I was lurking on Cowboys Zone and another name they were talking about besides Riley was Dan Campbell. Evidently there’s some belief that IF there was an opening he’d be one of the top choices from current NFL assistants. But a few of them also mentioned Urban Meyer so I don’t know
  13. I think it was Falcons and Ravens after the 2007 season
  14. With all the talk on Riley how well do y’all think his system would translate to the NFL? Do y’all think the idea that Air Raid offenses won’t translate to the NFL is a bit of a misnomer?
  15. This is 100% speculative, but Riley is from Texas and was in Middle and High School during the 90s run, so it's completely reasonable that this is a dream job for that kind of person. Especially compared to any other NFL opening. But that being said, OU would be able to probably match any salary Jerry offered, so it would come down to if he wants to strike while the iron is hot and go to the NFL or stay in college. I'm not sure how well his scheme would translate to the NFL but I'd take it over what Garrett and Co. have been running
  16. To be fair Riley does that to almost any DC he faces. He’s one of the best offensive minds in the game today. Still doesn’t excuse our tackling issues but schematically Riley is a savant.
  17. Kellen still had the playsheets and was constantly talking into the headset on offense while Garrett was standing there arms crossed but then Romo was saying the offense resembled the 2007-09 offense, so I don’t know if Garrett is limiting what plays Kellen can call or what. There has been some speculation that Garrett intervened and tried to simplify the offense before the New Orleans game since that was Moore’s first game calling plays in such an intense environment. It would make sense since the offense hasn’t looked the same since that game.
  18. Exactly. Dak isn’t a generational QB like Brady or Manning, but he’s got the tools to lead an effective offense. It’s not like we’re trotting Luke Falk out there. If he was in a different system that actually utilized his strengths or was at all creative it’d be a different ballgame. Romo carried this offense so much that Garrett is actually convinced the scheme isn’t the problem but the truth is Romo was able to make the scheme “work” more or less, not vice-versa. Maybe I’m a bad fan but I’m resigned to the fact that we will never accomplish anything meaningful with Garrett as Head Coach.
  19. When were the flags for the IHTTF penalties actually thrown? Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I seem to remember them being thrown close to the end of the play when the result of the play was evident
  20. Aggy = XFLU. Time to print the shirts
  21. This is the kind of game where we shut down Pooka and everybody acts like Orlando and gang fixed our defensive woes only for us to come out and play like crap the next week against TCU
  22. I like Mason Crosby because he's from Georgetown, but if he somehow shanks this I wouldn't be upset. Lions have gotten shafted all night by the zebras
