Everyone here wanted them to go for it. Well, you got what you asked for. And burned a timeout doing it.

Dumb play calling kills us once again. Game over.

Watching with some Hawleye fans, which is our tradition. I can't wait for the day when we finally win one. Though maybe this was the year

As disappointing as this is, we are a solid team and will keep getting better with this staff.

It sucks to lose this VERY winnable game but I’ll take this everyday over getting blown out.
Agreed. This year has at least led me to believe that if we upgrade talent, we can win games.
Not sold on the OC though. But, I also wonder if half his playbook is compromised because of our putrid QBs.

I feel bad for Williams. The dude is being relegated to the 4th or 5th option on an offense of this ' caliber '.

Our OC is playing through players like Barker, Ford, McCray, Washingtion, and Navarro more so than I. Williams.

It's criminal.

A decent throw to Ford moves the chains. But I guess that's too much to ask for a 6th year player.

That ball was a catchable ball. Ford is just as implicit in that as Peters. In fact, Ford drops a LOT of catchable balls. I think it’s time for us to realize Ford is not who we thought he’d be in the passing game.
