We have been running it. What game is he watching?

We stuck with the run the last 2 weeks...we won. First 3 games Fox got away from the run and wanted to install a more balanced attack (the duo actually was running the best in the losses but Fox elected to let Jake lose the games instead).

I'm sure pass protection had nothing to do with that..

Not sure I understand. So the running backs were running well....but it is the OL faults for not protecting Jake....which is why the run was abandoned to early for 4 consecutive games? Easy solution to the obvious. AZ they should have ran and ran. Philly they should have ran and ran...Dallas, Alt etc. The ran game was finding success in all those games...why put it on Jake (and the OL if that makes you happy). They still put too much on Jake and he has messed everything up...I don't care who you want to have him share the blame with......that is the most retarded coaching I have ever seen. Fox claims to want to run the ball but he has been afraid to do it up until the last 2 games despite it working.

This I can agree with... Pardon me being particular when I get tired of seeing people like Koolkatluke say Jake is the reason we are 2-3 when there are so many other factors involved..

he has 11 sacks and just like Cutler, who has 7 INTs and 10 sacks where as people like Peyton and co have 2 or 3 sacks... There is a correlation between the two (I realize Jake is fairly immobile, but that's not the entire story).. I just think a fair assessment is in order instead of hearing things like "Pep has been invisible all season long" when we all know that's not the case... (just another example)

I def want to see a new coach brought in as I'm tired of seeing the same team over the last several years, even in regards to them playing down to competition.. It's the little things that are starting to get to me, not just the big things.. I'd love a new QB as well. Perhaps Jake bounces back, but as a fan I have no control of that.. However, I do expect people to be reasonable at the same time. I don't think that's too much to ask. Esp when someone says they rather have Romo then Delhomme... The same poo would be happening, just different names... I mean, wtf are we really talking about here.. :)

We threw more because we were behind in those games. Do you really think we should have been running the ball when we were behind Philly by 2 or 3 td's?

      I mean, at the time that wouldn't have worked for them. The truth is that when they had the biggest advantage in that conversation was also when Notre Dame was at their peak arrogance and revenue stream creation(prior to the Longhorns Network, etc). Notre Dame was just never going to work out. The biggest thing they could have done is go hard AF and try to give insane deals to the premier Big 12 teams. Even then, most of them were eyeing the Big Ten and SEC. The biggest issue with the ACC was betting wrong. Miami and Virginia Tech ended up being disasters. Basically former college football powerhouses that ended up being afterthoughts by the time they arrived. I mean Miami specifically have literally had a total of three double digit win seasons since they joined the ACC in 2004 and two of those are in the past 2 seasons. Virginia Tech just fell apart at the wrong time, although I think Franklin will bring them back to prominence to an extent. Had we had it to do in hindsight, probably taking teams like TCU, Baylor, etc would have been wiser options than some of the moves into the Northeast and getting Miami.   But, ultimately, fug all this nonsense. It's the insane greed of college football that killed regional rivalries, college basketball and entire storied, REGIONAL conferences. That is the real blame. The thirst for the destruction of all college sports which sits squarely at the feet of the slobbering, ignorant rednecks and hillbillies at the top of the college football sphere.
