  1. echeese just posted a self-written article about the game on OTF board. This feels like a low point.
  2. But seriously, can we change the thread title? No offense to OP but we can't have the main Arch thread have a non-sensical and annoying title to click on for two more years. "Arch Madness" or something. Please. We need a fresh start. @immamac @LTtxfan
  3. All summer people were saying Arch had unreal pressure on him. And that's exactly what it looked like on the field yesterday. I expected him to be much calmer and looser, as I'm sure most of y'all did too. Then he threw a rushed fastball in the dirt on first play of game to a wide open player. He played tight and struggled with timing and mechanics. Without being able to see sideline conversations on TV, it seems like Sark and the staff did a poor job of getting him settled in. IMO it was all mental with Arch. He clearly needs more game reps to get comfortable. We'll be fine.
  4. Whatever mistakes Sark had as a playcaller yesterday probably occurred during the install in the week(s) prior. Not making excuses, but with lots of new faces starting on offense, Sark clearly chose to keep things simple. If he had any special plays up his sleeve, we would have seen them with how game played out. Maybe the lack of pre-snap motion was due to penalty concerns as well. Arch and the passing offense are much further behind then we thought. We need reps, and the 3 easy games coming up are much needed. I expect quick improvement.
  5. It’s a tic. Peyton did it as well.
  6. This. Wasn't even on my bingo card that Arch would struggle making basic throws. So strange.
  7. He definitely looked tight and skittish on TV. And that can cause inaccuracy. I get that too. But we have Sark and Arch, not bumblebee and bumblefuck.
  8. We had 7 months to prepare. I understand things not going smoothly in this game, but what transpired was way worse.
  9. The game plan sucked, but Arch blew it today. There were enough opportunities for him to win the game even with a conservative approach. My biggest question is why did Arch play so damn tight and skittish. He wasn't comfortable out there at all. Feels like mentally he was poorly prepared.
  10. Sark loves calling plays and will never give it up. Is Milwee in the booth? I've always wondered if Sark is collaborating with someone upstairs through his headset or if he just goes it alone.
  11. Agree we need to freshen the thread title up. My suggestion: Arch Madness.
  12. Well, that didn't pan out as hoped. It certainly did not.
  13. He played like shit. But I agree that he'll be fine.
  14. I'm right there with you. It feels like he was just mentally overwhelmed and uncomfortable throughout...I don't know how else to explain the breakdown in fundamentals.
  15. The disappointment in Arch's performance is completely fair. He was tight all game, missed plenty of bunnies, and overthrew the ball A LOT. To think he just sucks is ridiculous. Clearly he needs a lot more reps to settle in, and the next 3 scrimmages should have him ready for conference play. It blows we'll have to wait a month to see him in a high pressure situation again.
  16. Also, I know our defense is excellent, but I'm sick and tired of depending on them so much. Sark is amazing at everything we weren't sure he could do as Head Coach. The one constant struggle is supposed to be his calling card.
  17. It sucks that we play scrubs for the next month, but we clearly need the practice and reps to get Arch where he needs to be.
  18. "This is so unusual! We've never had a President go off the grid for days! This goes against the norms, something's up!" We are in a dictatorship. He can literally do whatever he wants.
  19. In response to the completely delusional rumors that Trump is dying, nothing proves it more than him playing golf on the weekend. Ok. You got 'em, Michael.
  20. He just got finished with a four day fuck session with Laura Loomer and is about to go shoot a reported 59. No one is gonna save us.
  21. He will end up being the oldest human being to ever live.
