That's a tough one there.... the QB was going into his slide just as the defender was going into his tackle. Hard to fault the defender there, that was bang bang
the offense needs the practice
Drew looks like he's afraid to make a mistake. He's not throwing his receivers open. This last 2nd down play, he had the tight end to the left flag and if he throws it on the break, he's got him. Instead, he waits too long and by then, it's covered.
Yeah the board would be better off with only ‘real fans’ like you who are sarcastic and clearly hate the coach and want everybody fired or benched. Are you Dave Jones with a different board handle???
I have been convinced by the good posters that a positive approach that avoids know it all criticism is the way to go. You’ll see. This team will win this game going away.
It’s Franklin. It’s his refusal to change his offense/scheme. No matter who our OL coach/O Coordinator is they will always have the same results.
It's both. I'm loathe to blame a young QB if his line doesn't give him time to throw. But Drew looked fine in mop-up duty all last year and this is virtually the same line. He needs to just sling it. In some ways, it's like the teen who's afraid to ask a girl out because he's afraid of rejection but then when he finally just does it and it goes well, he can be more comfortable. Just get that first INT out of the way, Drew, and then you can forget about it.
Combination of the two. Tentative QBs and porous OLines aren't a winning combination. QB mobility and extending plays helps tremendously.
You’re becoming a one hit wonder that’s overplayed….you’re the MmBop of the message boards.
Franklin should donate his salary to the university. As it is today, he is stealing!!!
The receivers, the defense can cheat on the run as there is no threat downfield. But today, the OL is crap.
Right now, Franklin and Yurcich are putting their heads together to develop an effective strategery for the second half. 
Addazio is only making $500k at TA&MU. That's probably less than Trautwein is (dis)earning.

My skin is curling hearing you say just get that first INT out of the way. I’m hoping we can cut this out of the chat so it doesn’t get out into the universe.
The OL is what it is.
When pressured, I don’t think Allar makes a quick enough response. Makes poor decisions, or just stands there like the ol’ deer in the headlight.
Starting to remind me of Carson Wentz in the NFL after his injury. Great physical skills but not the mental capacity of a great QB.
Hope he proves me wrong.
