Oh bother! ABC will mis-manage the previous game so it will start on ESPNU Español, which I don't receive. -- Eeyore

Some random thoughts...
The O breaks out for 32 first downs!
Cardwell reminds me of Tyner. I'm excited to see more.
I don't recall watching a TD pass thrown while a Buffalo was twisting a Duck's webfoot.
Another 4 4th down attempts against the Ducks. I'm wondering if the Ducks have ever had to face so many 4th down attempts in a season. I think the D needs to do a better job of getting the opponent's offense off the field before they reach Duck territory.
Go Ducks!

Coachless WSU making a statement against ASU?

Bend don't break is an excuse for not forcing a 3 and out. I don't believe in that philosophy at all.

ESPN last week, too. They control the commercial breaks. I'm beyond annoyed!!
At least bring up a picture in picture with no audio. I'll get a bigger screen and write it off as a medical expense!!

Honestly, I would love to see fans encourage AB before he ever takes a snap. He has limits, sure.
But he's the leader of the O and I think it just might di more good if he knew folks are earnestly rooting for him to succeed.
Go Ducks!

Unfortunately, negative news gets more viewers, listeners, and clicks. Add a villain to the mix and things get juicier.
I've resigned myself to believe the coaches know exactly the why's regarding the angst. But they are between a rock and a hard spot.
I'm thinking Brown really is the best option and the coaches know it's not a great situation, but if they don't back him 100%, his confidence could take a dive along with his performance and a backup would be worse than Brown is today.
So they need Brown. The plays called will be the best option for him to succeed.
Brown's our guy.
In the meantime, the media will do what they've always done to get more advertising $$$$$...so they add a villain to their story. It worked.

I posted this previously. Personally, I think DP's numbers are a little better than AB's and he was replaced at the end of game 5 by a Freshman we all know and ❤. But back then the Ducks were backsliding.

I'm not going to take a guess, but I'm not going to panic if CO marches down and scores a TD in the 1st qtr. It can happen to the best Ds at all levels.
I think MC's players over the years do a great job of not letting pressure keep them from coming back and playing well.
Once the Ducks get in the groove and I hope on the first series, they will keep the pressure on.
Let's get some Freshmen good reps Saturday!
That's my hope anyway....Go Ducks!

I'm just glad we haven't seen a lotta pistol the last 2 weeks. Any coincidence there?
Haha, if MC pulls the laminated page out and calls the Pistol, that literally is shooting from the hip.

Dakota Prukup?
His numbers are about on par with ABs. But I think he was better. He seemed to lose confidence due to the pressure of high expectations. I'm not sure the receiving corps was as good then as this year, either.

Whew! Something to watch for... I was chatting with a Duck-Buddy, and we could not come up with a worse starter at QB for Oregon since 1991.... (30 years ago!)
Worse than Burmeister?

WOW!
They call it the TFL/First Down option.

Maybe someone else will rise up and be a stronger, more dedicated, loyal, and diverse Duck.

IDK. He's from Orem. A cousin of the Sewells? Tweet says he's a momma's boy. Sounds like they just left from a visit. Could be homesickness. It happens. He's from a very, VERY strong family culture. If he does go to BYU, those are the most logical reasons.

When MC goes to Miami, it will be to visit friends and family, then he'll return to Oregon, home of the DUCKS!

We have to show just a greater determination for executing at a higher level because there was more consistency, it’s not all the way to where it needs to be. There is progress. We’re excited about that, and it again starts with the quarterback and the guys up front."
I put the truth in bold.

I found it last night and thought I was partially banned. Let's call it rubber band (read only).

From 247 on interception in the end zone. 10/25/2021 Erik Skopil
I'm SO glad the question was asked and I believe MC's answer.
I'm encouraged to hear they wanted to be aggressive, that call at that time was a mistake, and they discussed it.
This is the type of info that helps me as a fan trust the coaching more, even if I might disagree with the in-game decision.

I'm glad games are actually played and not simulated. They are more fun to watch and 2021 Duck fans get a cardio workout as a bonus.

The Ducks are bowl eligible. Reminds me of when Taggart asked Phil Knight if Nike sold bowling shoes. I can't help but wonder if ol' Slick knew he was on his way out to collect a big check.

This has been going on for a while. It has to stop.
I was a huge fan of Alberto Salazar until this story:

In 2019 the Oregon total D was ranked 22nd.
In 2021 they are ranked 84th.
Arizona is ranked currently at 52nd.
I don't work for Rob Moseley, so...

Oregon At Washington Set For 4:30 P.M. On ABC
in Our Beloved Ducks
Posted
I have separation anxiety. I was traumatized after the Blazers won the championship and instead of going into the locker room celebration the network jumped to a golf broadcast, of all things.
Oregon is the Rodney Dangerfield of national sports.
I have to say, the plus side was tuning into a 14-0 Duck lead.
