Reality Check


House

Recommended Posts

A lot of people on here with a lot of opinions on the game today. Which is all well and good, every one is entitled to thier opinion. Unfortunately, a lot of these opinions are like assholes.

The reality is that we lost this game not because of one person or because of one part of the team didn't play well enough. We lost this game today because the Saints are a better football team than we are.

Yeah, Jake wasn't perfect, the RB's fumbled the ball on key plays, the D gave up some big plays, the WR's dropped some crucial passes, Peppers didn't have any sacks, the coaches didn't call the right plays. There are a multitude of reasons for why we lost, but the cumulative reason is because the Saints are the best team in the NFC and they proved it today.

Bitch and moan all you want about whomever you want but that is what it boils down to. The Saints are a damn good football team.

I think the play calling (defense and offense) left a little to be desired in the 2nd half.

We went tooo conservative in the 2nd half. I know Fox wants to protect Jake but at some point you have to let him be a QB.

I think you could see Jakes frustration in the game because of the play calling. I dont blame him.

Hell. If we are to lose, lets do it throwing INT's and guns blazing.

While I agree that we were too conservative in the 2nd half of the game, what would you be saying if we would have gotten out to the 20 on the last "possesion with a hope", and Jake would have thrown an INT. I'm sure it would not be, well at least we tried.

What I am trying to say is that there are just so many reasons to why we lost today trying to pin it on one facet of the game is stupid. We flat out lost. We tried and we played well for 3 quarters but that is not enough against a team like the Saints.

And you just gave us the reason why Jake is no longer the QB we want at starter. Caoches don't trust him and his not what we want as starter anymore. point blank.

    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country. 
    • Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
