To win games, you have to make plays. We don’t make plays in the passing game, and we don’t break 20+ yard runs on the ground. It’s really hard for any team to string together a lot of 15+ play drives, especially hard for a team that’s typically not as talented as it’s opponents.

The inability to complete third down passes is beyond laughable.Without a dependable passing attack Rutgers is just spinning its wheels because they aren't capable of running the ball for 70 plus yards.Its just a matter of time before opponents stifle the running plays.

I suspect you didn't see that third down completion to Langan.

That really should be a roughing the passer penalty. Pile drove him into the ground with full weight.

Melton needs to catch that.
