Playing behind the sticks is a near impossible task when your QB can’t make accurate throws.

I for one think MC will come around and hire some young enthusiastic coordinators to light a fire under these players. So far the biggest drawback is his coaching staffs inability to make QBs better than they were. Herbert was a total disaster considering the potential that kid had. Tyler had absolutely no confidence an AB has very little passing ability and hasn’t got any better, he might not be a top 10 QB in the pack 12. Without a quality athlete that can deliver the ball on time and accurately while running when needed we will never win a national championship this day and age. Lets keep MC and fix the other problems before we get rid of the best recruiter on the west coast.

If you look at our injury problems it may have something to do with each players history. Verdell has been plagued with injuries the whole time at Oregon. Red’s been nicked up several times and look at our luck with tight ends. I know that Funa and Flowe both had injury problems in high school. The offensive line has been shuffled most of the season. There are probably more but the point is maybe we are picking the wrong guys to play tough in MC’s culture. Sure seems like we have more than our share. Hard to get a rhythm when your starters are out of the lineup. Time to move on and beat the Beavs with the players we have left. But to do so we need to be ready to play from the first snap to the last or we will be looking at The Who wants to be here Bowl.

The frustrating part is we all know this team is loaded with athletes and the coaching staff has a difficult time utilizing their talents. This team seems like they sleepwalk thru the first qtr of every game and this time it cost them any chance to win. Very depressing for sure. Hopefully we can rebound and beat the beavers next week. However after what I saw last night my confidence level is very low.

I for one don’t see any passion in his play like I do with the good college QBs around the country.

In my opinion it is a decision the player makes when he is recruited by any university that he give 100% to the college and the team. The University spends a large amount on each player through scholarships and facilities that each student athlete can take advantage of. Any player that quits on a team, especially late in the season is the type of person that will do so again. MC is reportedly a players coach and I think he goes out of his way to be so. Disrespecting a coach is a sign of weakness and these kinds of players usually bomb out at whatever level they are playing. There are no participation trophies at this level. Finish what you start or move on because cancer is not what this team needs. The bad apples always fall from the tree first.

This will not help the recruiting efforts what so ever.

Oregon State might be favored next week. They did beat these guys and they have a better coach.

Guess we don’t have a hurry up offense.

He is who we thought he was.

I don’t have enough fingers to point a finger at what’s wrong with the Ducks tonite. My chin is on my chest.

We now know who the best coach east of the Mississippi is.

I am done with AB. Do you think we can beat a top 25 team with this old man at the helm. Please prove me wrong. He hasn’t made a good play yet and the game is almost half over.

Let’s win the next three games and see what happens. If Utah is as good as Vegas thinks they are and we win out then I like our chances.

Show of hands, who wants to play Ohio State today.

Earning his money with an arse handed in the shoe today.

If we don’t get too far behind and can run the ball controlling the clock it will be Utah out of breath, not the Ducks. go s

Ducks 35/17 3 4 200

Let’s win the next three games and see what happens. If Utah is as good as Vegas thinks they are and we win out then I like our chances.

Does that mean 6 teams from the sec get in? Just kidding

Mario is obviously not going to make Oregon a destination for 5 star wide outs. I am hopeful that this changes next year but I doubt it. I think we will see more WRs exit the program at the end of the season.

Can’t argue with logic.

If MC ever leaves them Mirabal goes with him.

If anyone thinks social media is good for these young athletes then all I can say is hawgwash.

Keep your heads in the game. Focus better on third down both offense and defense. Tackle better, don’t jump on the ball carriers back and ride him for another 8 yards. dbs turn and look for the ball when the receiver does, don’t start grabbing. just 3 of my pet peavs. There are many more, most are stated above, and I have plenty of gray hairs that I didn’t have in September because of it.
