Are we going to get someone with the balls to sit a player that is throwing for 45 yards and 3 ints? We might have a chance without that. The players just looked unprepared, and playcalling doesn't make since 75% of the time.
Defense wasn't too bad outside of 2 drives. Tackling looks pathetic at times and the d line gets manhandled by everyone.
It all came down to coaching in my opinion. Yeah Russell had an awful game, but coaches have got to know when enough is enough and go with a guy that can handle coming in and playing when Russell is clearly off. Stubborness of the staff is one of my biggest concerns. For example, Josh Robinson getting about 10 yards per carry and running through people, but we go with "Stop-at-the-line-of-scrimmage" Perkins on 3rd and 2. Perkins is good an all but is a first and second down guy, not third and short.....ever. He always stops at the line of scrimmage for a juke while looking for the homerun instead of getting what we need.
Honestly, if I am a recruit, I don't see what the coaching staff brings to the table after watching our pathetic team for the last 6 games.
