Yesterday the announcers mentioned the lack of urgency after the TD

[beastson]

They couldn't believe it. None of us could believe it. Why were they still in huddle mode? Still calling run plays up the middle? Moving like turtles

 

We were down 15 with plenty of time left. Seem like they say the right things to the media, but it feels like they given up 

[jtnc]

I don't think they gave up, Cam and Stewart were at least still playing very hard. But I believe they knew the loss was most likely inevitable.

it all starts at the top. i'm sure its hard to get fired up as a player when your coach is isn't engaged in the action. stoic ron needs to light some fire under some people and make these guys realize they have a job to do. you would think a guy from a military family would know that your leaders need to lead or lazy will rub off on the other players.

 

what we have here is lazy football and a nonchalant coaching staff. it is terrible, undisciplined, lazy football.

And then you see mike Zimmer chewing out Harrison smith for giving up a td when they were up by 22

I thought it was funny to see them decide to go up tempo when they were up three scores and when we got the ball we still plodded along despite being down three scores. Our coaches would set themselves on fire before going hurry up ahead by three scores which is why they suck.

Probably bc going pass heavy.....with our OL and WRs for an extended period will only result in bad things

I knew we were in trouble when we were told about the country club environment during training camp this summer.

Actually, our first drive into the red zone was done using the no-huddle (thought it wasn't a hurry-up no-huddle).

 

And then after got inside the red zone?

 

Shula stopped using it.

 

Then we kicked a FG.

 

Genius, yes?

Maybe, but I'll take going aggressive and losing than staying conservative and losing
