Well, I hope they'll realize what they need to work on for next week. The defense stepped up in the 2nd half.

For as much as I don't want to admit this, this is a dead on post.

Springs not playing really hurt us I believe if he was playing the passes that Plax got on Smoot would have been limited. Zorn called a bad game but it was his first game we need to improve in the area greatly. I'm with Madden when he said we should of spiked the ball and kicked the field goal with .22 seconds on the clock. The receivers should have known better than to cut routes before the first down mark. We lost as a team but we really lost the game on 3rd down conversions.

Come on guys, first year coach, he can't win them all. They need to learn from their mistakes and get their act together. We never addressed our WR issue, so we need to work with what we have. Also Zorn needs to realize that the runnign game is important, especially against pass rushing defenses. Our defense did well tonite and held their ground when they needed to do so. I hope with Springs and Smoot healthy, and Taylor at 100% we can be even better.

Zorn looked lost. I don't think he was even aware he was down to scores. Two thumbs down and a boot in the ass. Trash, complete trash. I mean, your first shot down field is with 3 minutes left in the game down two scores?

I don't care if he's a first year coach...this is football 101!

But he didn't turn over the ball. These were bad play calls. PERIOD.

well not so sure, i mean sure play calling was shitty, but campbell should get some good bulk of the blame. On one than more times he held the ball way to long, he been like this his whole career!! i mean if he hasnt learned on how to get rid of it quick and dont second guess so damn much then how are we gona be succeful on offense? If he keeps this hestiance ill gurantee you he will not be here next year, or atleast not or starte..

I agree 100%. I know its early and you don't want to overreact to 1 game but Zorn look like a Deer caught in the Headlights.

I didn't see many receivers open during the game at all.

I believe he got sacked once, and didn't turn the ball over he played decent.

[itvnetop]

Our defense was lights out after those first few scores. Also, I'm not sure the offense could have converted any of those dropped INTs anyway... it's going to take some time for this system to gel- Campbell and the wideouts will get better timing and we'll see less of these passes short of the marker on 3rd downs. Portis was a mad man tonight... loved seeing that monster block in the third quarter.

[MiraclesHappen07]

im watching jim zorns press confrence and i understand some what by how they managed the clock at the end there, but still come on, if you cant make up that kind of decision then what you doing as head coach? i love ya zorn, but damn man

But our receiving group was supposed to be improved during the offseason and it is not. I think they need to step it up as well. Granted at the beginning when JC was pressure it wasn't on them, but they dropped passes and were not getting open when JC had time to throw. I'm not defending JC, he needs to do his adjustment, but the receivers were not helping and this area has been identified as an area of problem in our offense.
