I did enjoy the crowd shots post game they were in disbelief they thought they had it in the bag.

So did I. (think they had it in the bag)

The dumbasses with Horns Down painted on their bodies was particularly sweet to see. Their fans seem to have bought into the Horns down as something that devastates us.

At least we didn't eat it, fuckwads.

The thing we circle around is: we know Sark is capable of doing what he did in the 4th quarter all the time if he wants to…but yet he will revert to his default mode. The defensive coordinators he faced as HC at Washington all knew he would not take what a defense gives him. He wants to run what he wants to run like he’s auditioning for something. It’s maddening. When I first learned we had hired sark I read old articles about him in which DC’s he faced offered the harshest criticisms of him about refusing to essentially adapt to the abilities of his offense and to what a defense is giving him. We all know he can do it. But he reverts back to his “I want to run what I want to run with my dudes” default mode. 
 

 

This... 👆

He's done this since his time in Washington. Drove my friends up there nuts. 

I remember thinking on the day he was hired here that maybe the leopard had learned to or was at least willing to change his spots, which unfortunately he hasn't. 

Now he drives us nuts.

No doubt this Saturday he'll start out with 12 personnel.

The defense held MS St to -21 yards on 17 plays on their final 4 drives. The comeback doesn't happen if the defense doesn't play great in the 4th quarter and OT. 

Have to tip the cap to vintage Blake Shape in crunch time. Missed an easy TD on the slant that would have tied it in OT. Then on the final play he just drops the football and takes the sack to seal the game

That’s why he should only be an OC. It’s not that he cannot be a HC and OC because he isn’t talented. We know he’s talented. But if he’s also the HC there is NO ONE to rein his ass in on play calling. And that’s the issue. He won’t stop himself from going into Tin Cup mode. There ain’t no one on the field like Saban to say “cut that shit out and get a first down,”

They abandoned the offense that worked pretty good to be overcautious and be devoured. "Victory" offense.

I don't blame Endries. I feel he's been good when called upon which is not as often as he should be. He's also wide open at times and Arch is locked into his #1 target. 

the play upthread where Arch throws it OOB to over Wisner's head is a perfect example.  the alignment of the D before the play shows you either Endries or Wingo is gonna be wide open.

So he needs someone to be Romeo and tell him if he gets this ball wet, he can’t turn in his card. But they gotta tell him with a sackful of balls next time.

I may watch Tin Cup tomorrow.

I’ve wondered why Sark didn’t go to a more spread type offense with Quinn as well.

I honestly don't know. For fun I charted us just to see how we produced when in 12 personnel. We ran 35 plays out of the 79 total in 12 personnel. Here is each one

Manning 3 yard run for TD

Wisner 4 yard run

Wisner 4 yard run

Pass 3 yard loss

Screen pass 1 yard loss

Baxter 10 yard run

Baxter 5 yard run

 Shannon 5 yard penalty

Baxter 1 yard run

Manning 5 yard run

Baxter 3 yard run

Baxter 1 yard loss

Livingstone 3 yard TD catch

Wisner fumble 6 yard loss

Wisner 4 yard run

 Wingo 1 yard catch

Wisner 6 yard run

Manning run 1 yard loss

Manning incomplete pass

Mosely 8 yard catch

Wisner run for 0 yards

Manning sacked 8 yard loss

Townsend 5 yard penalty

Livingstone 6 yard TD catch

Manning incomplete pass

Moore 21 yard TD catch

Manning incomplete pass

Livingstone 14 yard catch

Arch incomplete pass

Manning sacked 3 yard loss

Manning 1 yard rush

Manning run for 12 yards injured

Baxter 9 yard run

Mosley 10 yard TD catch

So we gained 92 net yards in 12 personnel. The other 336 yards were gained in 11 or 10 personnel. Now this isn't to say 12 personnel doesn't have it's effectiveness. It does, but in my opinion we need to dial it back a bit.

Saturday was a pretty big lesson in the philosophy. Let's wait and see.

I’m not optimistic. This isn’t new. He’s had a QB for 2.5 seasons now that clearly demonstrates greater effectiveness with the spread concept stuff.
