I don't really care who's assignment that is. You are free and see 2 guys that really would be easy blocks, you go for it. Sam might score if Erving even just chips the guy.

And even if Sam doesn't score, he at least doesn't get injured and has the team deep in the redzone set up for a score. 

That was an utter fail by Erving/Paradis/whomever! there.

Had Erving ran up the field to block, not knowing if the play was run or pass,RPOs, oline told to jog up field... he could've been called for illegal man down field which would have neglect Darnold's run...a repeat of downs plus ur QB hurt. Darnold chose not to slide because he felt he was Derrick Henry in a split sec.

I disagree with that viewpoint.

You have zero awareness…didn’t FSU just beat UNC?

I will never discuss or comment on the blue blood status of the Tar Heels or any other program that has won HCs in BB, since USC is not a historic program in basketball.  But to comment about the trajectory of our football program is laughable at best.  In 2008 ESPN had a National Board made up of programs in every conference, it was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol era, and all the SEC and the southern programs fans were saying Alabama was a “has been” and would never be relevant again….lol.  We told them, to never discount a CFB Blue Blood from coming back.  
 

Alabama sure did.  Right after their sanctions, and through the mid 2000s, they couldn’t bring in a 4or 5* recruit if they hit one over the head and dragged them on campus.  Look at them now.  So…if you’re not an Alabama fan, keep USC out of your filthy mouth. Lol.

Yes FSU beat us. What’s your point. Been a disappointing year at Kenan. FSU and USC are both half of what they once were.

That was dumb for not sliding.

He’s not gonna win a football game from the sideline concussed. And yes QB should slide especially given those circumstances.

 

Again what are you crying about 

Hubby doesn't come across the way he thinks he does. In his mind, he's big and bad defending the team. To everyone else, he's whiny and wearing rose colored glasses

You can't expect him to slide in the congested space. Better idea.. Maybe we shouldn't be calling QB designed runs in the Redzone with a QB who isn't built to take on hard hits. 

Except our QB red zone runs are exactly why our red zone efficiency has jumped drastically over last season. Those plays work because Sam isn’t expected to run. Plus, on most of them he goes untouched to the end zone. 
 

This was failure on multiple levels. Erving, Paradis and Sam Darnold. There really isn’t much of an argument for not sliding there. It’s not like he didn’t see guys coming and he knows he has to protect himself.

No, when an OL decides not to block anyone and Erving literally made that call by not caring or even trying to find the next guy to block, that hurts the team. OL are taught to find the next guy even if they miss the first block. I don’t think you’ll find a single OL coach that would say that Erving didn’t fug that up by being lazy and not doing his job. Sam saw the DB engaged with his WR and a pretty easy chance to score. It only needed a LT to perform his job. Even a half hearted block still gets the job done.

I don't disagree with the block/non block, but Sam made the decision not to go down before putting himself at risk. That decision, that type of run is the RB's job, not the Starting QB that's getting about 19 mil next year. I don’t think you’d find a single HC coach that would disagree with me. BC now, we have a concussed starting QB after our 1st win in 5 weeks with a Question Mark over next week and Pray that he isn’t seeing ghost for the remainder of the season...

I expect him not to run into a congested space without sliding or dropping to the ground, because he's our Starting QB.

Designed QB runs are just that, designed! Have you seen Sam take a hit like that in any of the designed QB runs this year, no. That's because they were designed to isolate him to be able to run without the big hit. 

On the runs where he ran that were not designed, he ran and slide to avoid the big hit...

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
