This is about as unhappy as I've ever been about a win

The short yardage play calling just fuging sucks, especially near the goal line. It's like we're afraid to punch the ball in, or maybe Norv just doesn't have faith in the O-line. We play a tad too conservatively with a relatively small lead & are obviously afraid for Allen to throw the ball, and with Allen putting the ball on the field & doing his hurt-Cam impression with the over and under-throws, Norv (Ron) might have a point. 

As much as we were exploiting CMC (to the sidelines in crunch time), it seems like we would have used the run to set up some passes down the field, but those plays just didn't really materialize. Moreover, I would have liked to see more quick slants.

After the first series, I was like Norv is finally opening up the offense, and then we commenced to running CMC into the ground, and I can tell you from watching football for 40+ years, that it's not sustainable. It's a telltale sign that he cramped up & Bonnafon actually came in with fresh legs and made JAX pay.

The pass defense was very shaky, but I guess I'll give them a little bit of a pass. Chark is the real deal, and so is Minshew! He really outplayed Allen on everything except the scoreboard. 

We've got to do better, especially with the offensive play calling. 

This is a game that I feel lucky to have won, and in my opinion it shouldn't have been this way.

Oh, yeah, just when I praised Slye...Tighten up!

We're 3-2 with a back-up QB.

Did everyone expect every win to look perfect in this situation?

I get your frustration, but I'm hype as hell.  We were 0-2 with our franchise QB ruled out for the foreseeable future.  This is so much better than what I expected.

Worst thing for me was not kicking a FG when we could have gone up 7 and not give the jags so much hope to come back. It was a stupid momentum call to go for it when we were already up 4 points. Made no sense and if Bonnafon wasn’t a stud back up we probably would have lost this game.

    • Gonna be interesting to watch. All reporting indicates he's gonna be out. From what I'm hearing he's out. The interesting part will be what happens next. The job has been staying within the "family" since Dean retired. But there's no one within the family that makes any sense at all right now. They'll have to go outside the family to hire a coach that's likely to be successful and tension between the school and the basketball family is already high right now with this plot to move the arena to Carolina North because the folks within the basketball family want it to stay at the Dean Dome and they feel misled because they feel like there was never any real consideration of revamping the Dean Dome and this whole evaluation process was just meant to make it look like that was being considered. The best outcome here IMO is that we hire a great coach from outside the family and we revamp the Dean Dome as an olive branch to the family. But the powers that be REALLY want a new arena at Carolina North.
    • yeah outside of 3 shots in a row for arsenal nothing has happened.  I need a quick goal for them and then MC start to press.  Need 2 shots for Arsenal and all 4 still for MC
