Worst Play Call I Have Ever Seen

OrangeBlood · Oct 3, 2014

A quick pitch with Ameen-Moore on your own 1? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?

Been trying to keep things in perspective over last 2 weeks. Couldn't keep it in anymore. AWFUL.

We are running an offense that we don't have the players for. We need to line up and run and play action off it. This offense isn't working. No seperation from recievers. It's a joke.

Time for a new coaching staff

They look like 4-8 team. If that happens not sure Shafer survives.

Seriously -relax - McDonald is bringing in great recruits - those include: 4 stars that won't make it on campus so nobody good goes after hard knowing they are train wrecks- or 3 stars that are really average but at from FLA so they are considered awesome yet probably suck compared to the kids SU should be getting.

Shafer will survive 4-8. Not sure McDonald will though

OrangeBlood · Oct 3, 2014

Last drive another beauty. Running the ball effectively then calls two passes that go for nothing. On 3 and 10, calls a draw. UGH.

Look at the brighside, we got a touch back! Yay

Worst effort I have seen since the GROB era. Complete joke.

Effort isn't the issue. Execution is.

What about 2-10 or 3-9?

I would have never thought it possible before tonight.

I thought 3 - 9 was very possible after last week. You can't win games if you can't score... and we can't score.

You are absolutely right. Didn't mean effort in literal sense, my fault for not being clear.

I just can't believe they are this bad.

Ozcuse · Oct 4, 2014

4-8 looks pretty optimistic right now.

BKCuse · Oct 4, 2014

I doubt this team is able to win 4 games.

We may not turn another helmet upside down until 2015

i was totally in amazement at that call. it was priceless!!!!!

I feel bad for the defense. They are working their tales off to create opportunities for the offense. A reason for "some" of the missed tackles is that guys are going for a big hit on the ball out of desperation. When the came was closer they weren't missing nearly as many tackles.

Going empty on 3rd and 4 at the Lville 40 with the score 19-6 is just as bad.

They can't think one play ahead. They're just not smart enough. Just never occurs to then that you don't have to punt on 4th

I can't fathom how they planned to run 80 plays per game? They're functioning at a speed just above pop warner. And when we have the defensive on ropes, we pick up an assinine penalty or have to call a time out to get our act together.

We're not fast, so lets's huddle and figure out what we need to do and make sure everyone understands.

insane. I'm more of a macro guy, don't get too hung up on individual calls, but that's four down territory based on time, place, and score if you managed to get two yards.

At least give yourself a chance, when a swing pass to AAM is your check down, what the hell is up with your personnel group.

That situation calls for a tight bunch formation, three in the pattern running four yard curls or quick out, seven protecting, or a play with a pass/run option. Go back to the stick route to Parris that worked in the first half.

Instead you put five in the pattern with four running long developing patterns.

It's not individual calls. They do this all the time. Idiots punt there. Idiots never consider it in third down. This stuff reveals the lack of brains

Worst play ever for so many reasons, but it wasn't the first time we've used a play for AAM that was totally incorrect for his style of running. I saw a similar pair of plays called 2 plays in a row (I think it was the Maryland game). That guy has to go vertical immediately and basically knock a defender. Worst case scenario is the guy gets hit around the LOS and the collision either gets him to the line or maybe a yard forward. Get him running sideways and, well, you know the rest.

Never mind the fact that we have a big QB and he should be able to sneak a few yards (if we eve put him under center).

The depth he had in the backfield was staggering considering the situation. I think he caught the ball closer to the end line than he did the goal line. What?

Shafer and Gross save themselves by sacrificing MacDonald.

my brother was particularly fond of AAM in the slot on a couple of series. i got a text - this is the worse formation I have ever seen. it makes absolutely no sense. especially when you have 3 other backs who could actually play in the slot

Hunt checked into the toss sweep. McDonald had a power run called.
