While we’re bitching. FK Thursday night games. I absolutely hate them.

It’s tough when you build a defense to defend the pass and then the other team can beat you just by running the ball and 3-5 well timed pass plays because the offense isn’t doing anything until mid 4th quarter.
I think our defense would look a whole lot better if our offense was putting points on the board, gifting the other team points, and was sustaining drives.
Our offense has had 8 turnovers on the other teams side of the 50 (asked AI, didn’t verify though).
That said, not the shutout D we'd all prefer to see.
Good points. I rescind my comment. Van Ginkel is obviously much more important than we imagined.

I think I'd just as soon sit Darrisaw and O'Neill and take the loss that likely comes with it, than having those guys remain sore and questionable when JJ McCarthy returns.

Funny guy. You think JJ is coming back. We’re stuck in QB purgatory.

You don't think JJ's coming back?

Honestly, at this point? Who fricken knows. KOC has gotten fantastic at coach speak.

Now O'Neill. Can we just get a healthy o-Line?

Another ST penalty. JFC. This unit lives to shoot itself in the foot.

Why not Mason on 3rd & 1?
