Anyone pissed off about Moore only getting 20 attempts

No.

Our gameplan/philosophy regardless of Fox's presence or not, is to run the ball, It is our main reason of success for the past 2 years.

You do not need a Peyton Manning esque, throw the ball 35+ times QB to have success with this team...It's more of a luxury really, especially for this team. As a matter of fact a QB like Kyle Orton would do wonders in our run first, throw second offense.

So pertaining to the topic while I personally would have enjoyed to se Matt throw 30+ times you are only asking for trouble, especially since in our playbook I'm willing to bet you can count how many passing plays we have with your hands.

So no.

I am not pissed off we throw 20 times so much as when we ran and passed. The playcalling was awful and Moore wasn't put in good position to throw most of the day. The line was porous and stewart and sutton did most of the damage by themselves. They didn't have many great holes and the protection was poor. Moore didn't screw up and had a passer rating of 73. Its sad when that is pretty good for us this year.

i don't often agree with you but since I do here....I figured I would acknowledge it.

same scenario can be said for Jake in many games....he hasn't been put in good position either a lot. When the run is working they ask Jake to throw. When they ask Jake to throw...a lot of times it was set up for disaster from the beginning.

However, it is what it is. When put in a bad position...Jake normally does really bad things...and then he would also do it when things actually setup pretty good for him. Moore didn't hurt us today (even w/ the pick).....it wasn't a game changer. That is what the QB has to do.....he is going to be put in a lot of bad scenarios....he just has to escape them w/o hurting the team and make plays on the rare plays he is put to have success.

I dont know if I was pissed. I was angry on the one 3rd and 8 when they were in FG range and they just ran it. That pissed me off. I know that is what Fox does so I wasnt surprised.

If you are talking about our last score, that didn't bother me at all. I was glad they didn't risk an interception. A nearly automatic FG that puts us up by two scores? In today's game, thats a big gain. IMO, it was a good call. Against another team with a better offense, perhaps not. But for todays game, it was the way to play it.

I understood it. I still didnt like it :-) I just would have liked them to try and get a 1st down. They are 4-7.

    • Like your sense of humor.  The answers we seek often lies in the question we ask.
    • This is going to be one of the more competitive camps we've had at WR in awhile... The only locks are XL, TMac, and AT. Coker and Horn Jr both have strong chances at making it. I can see David Moore being WR6. Renfrow might be the WR7 if they decide to carry that many, or he could join Dan Chisena on the PS (who gets stashed to help on ST more than at WR).
    • Sure, but I have long acknowledged he got better.  He went from horrific to mid-lower end starter.  But now you can’t say that…..you got people wanting to spin top 10 play if you look at it this way, great deep ball passer if you only acknowledge x.   I mean the headline in that article is nice for fans to run with.   But in reality Bryce Young was not the best deep passer in week 12.  Far from it.  He went 2 of 7 with no TDs deep.  The week was full of guy who went something along the lines of 3 of 4 with a bomb TD.   So Bryce then gets appointed best deep passer for say….plays like a 50/50 jump ball while trailing late to a fully covered AT that goes incomplete but could have been something given how the defender played it….not an actual good play.  But that could have been a good play.  I mean, same play could have been a pick if everything else was the same and the defender who had AT blanketed played the ball better (nothing changes for Bryce in terms of what he did.  It’s just a 50/50ish ball to someone covered)….and his entire best deep passer week 12 is built off plays that never happened over guys that actually got it done.   we should be happy Bryce with from shouldn’t of been drafted play to serviceable starter last year.  But all this spin that he is somehow actually sneaky great just ain’t something I’m doing yet
