kirklandduck Moderator No. 150 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I wasn’t expecting Oregon to win but I did expect them to be at least competitive. The defense in particular is atrocious. These tackling issues had to have shown up in practice previously, I doubt the coaches didn’t know about it. The question for me is what they’re doing about it? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuckIt No. 155 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Good hit. Ducks finally get a guy open and Cota has probably the best hands on the team. Ducks just can't catch a break. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnotherOD No. 156 Share Posted September 3, 2022 They are missing tackles. I'd say it's a bunch of guys processing slowly, reacting slowly, being a step behind, a step or even two out-of-position trying to catch up (and when they do get a shot to make a play, they are so excited, they are over running it and missing it). Just flat being rolled. It is gonna get a lot of discussion but this is now getting totally drilled in 4 games in 5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tackling part is really surprising with Lanning and company on board. Yeah. Think this is a good year to put watching the ducks on the back burner. The games at the end of last year were difficult to watch and this year looks like more of the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vandownbytheriverduck No. 162 Share Posted September 3, 2022 So many missed tackles. So many blown coverages. No pass rush. It’s just flat out bad football.

If there is a culture problem (it might just be that they are demoralized from being so thoroughly crushed), the question that I feel should be asked is how much of that is from DL and how much is leftover from MC? DL definitely seems more humble and focused on learning, which I think will lead to great growth of our team. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about that, Lanning has the right culture attitude, and we will recruit really really well. We all hoped for playoff berth in year 1...give 2-3 years and winning playoff games could be a reality. As we enter the 4th quarter, at least our uniforms are really cool and have school colors.

Phunteratc No. 172 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I'm at the game and while it is frustrating and disappointing. Georgia is the real deal. The expectations of our team were obviously way to high. I'm not giving up on them. We were just introduced to SEC football. There won't be any more difficult team in our schedule this year. Now we need to see how the players and the coaches respond. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckIt No. 173 Share Posted September 3, 2022 So are you guys still in favor of Mullens scheduling these so called "neutral games" against SEC's top teams to open the season? A warm up game would have done them good because may be they would have at least figured out that Nix isn't their guy, going forward. Granted, I'm sure that when he scheduled this game, he didn't know that the Ducks would be playing the defending champion, with a brand new spankin HC and system in place. Still, he needs to do a much better job with the negotiations. Ducks were already in a uphill battle but to face a hostile crowd, on the road, getting paid half a million less than Georgia, is pathetic. He should have just agreed to a Georgia home game and got paid. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LADuck No. 179 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Well at least you can't blame this loss on anybody as they are just totally overmatched. We had a neighbor that was a MLB pitcher for 14 years in the 60's and 70's. He used to say "sometimes the other guy is good too." In this case sometimes the other guy is way more talented. Hopefully we can recruit to this level to play with the elite teams in the future. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Hilarius Moderator No. 181 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I am looking forward to the Fishduck article explaining the RB situation. They start w a rando transfer who proceeds to miss two catches before even getting a hand-off. Then they switch RBs every drive or more, and the team’s top returning RB doesn’t get meaningful touches ‘til garbage time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
