The FG did nothing they still need 2 TDs.

 

It's a 2 score game at worst. The FG still left them with a 2 score game. They playing conservative in a must win situation. I don't get it.

They're just trying to get into the locker room with the score manageable. They need something positive. They had a decent drive finally. Go for it and come up empty and it's like a kick in the balls. Your team is already reeling. You got a just get something positive. Now if you can get this stop here you have a chance to reply turn the momentum tide going into half time.

And just like that still a 2 TD game. Conservative coaching with a lesser team is just asking to lose this game. It is what it is.

Yeah, because going for it on 4th and 4 would totally change the fact that ND is just head and shoulders better. Probably the only difference would be that IU would have a goose egg on the scoreboard.

Irish are gonna blow the top off in the 2nd half. 

I hope so. The IU HC out here taking timeouts second guessing himself as if he has the talent on defense to keep this game close. Clearly a talent gap you have to coach aggressive there is no tomorrow for Indiana. If you get blown out being aggressive at least you went down swinging.

I like how you just ignore that the result of them being aggressive on their first redzone trip was their shaky QB throwing a bad INT.

If their sixth year QB wasn't playing like a shook freshman backup unexpectedly forced into action they might be able to compete.

    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not. 
    • This year, there's been enough positive talk from core players, free agents, and coaches to where I believe the culture building and momentum is more important than fighting for a worse record.
