Am I the only one who has noticed how much more wide open the offensive play calling has been this game? i am wondering if this is the new face of the offense going forward or is it just a "let's see what we've got now" type of deal. I think the latter, but that makes me sad.

Well when you don't have Greer or MiniMac in there, both can't throw at all when it counts, they can't stack the box with DW. Defenses now have to respect the pass which will open up the running game.

Also, I've always though Kidsey was underrated and needs to be returning punts instead of Harris.. More speed, higher gear

And when you play a HS team, you can do whatever you want to get a QB ready for his real test...

Which isn't for 2 weeks.

We get it.

Kidsy is the better PR. He has an extra gear that Harris doesn't have. Harris should have took that jet sweep to the house and got hawked easily by a guy that had no real angle. Harris is shifty and quick, typical slot receiver which is where he belongs.

Agreed. On that play, I couldn't help thinking how Brelan would have taken it to the house.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      The McGill non-TD was 50/50. With my green glasses on, the ball broke the goal line more or less as his knee hit. The problem was that they didn’t call it a TD and therefore harder to call the TD on replay when that close. The real problem is our inability to get TDs when in the redzone, particularly short yardage. Can’t run for one yard and it’s pathetic. Should never need to pass from the one yard line and if we do it should be some kind of play action misdirection to a block and release TE. The play calling in general was terrible this game. The decision making (on sides kick) was even worse. On a related note, the non-fumble and the PI call were ridiculous. I can sort-of, kind-of see the PI call because it was a bang bang play and refs are human, but the fumble was a fumble and they got it wrong live and on replay. The AD needs to file a protest to the league. That ref should be suspended.

      So was the radio play-by-play. Wish there was a video replay for me to see this. I also wish there was better checks-and-balances. In the NFL, can't a team submit a replay of a call to the NFL office for review, even if it doesn't mean a change in the final score? At least there would be some transparency and accountability. Based on the radio play by play, you would think that giving McGill the TD was a no-brainer, and the game might have ended up very differently. An option offense playing from behind is very different from one playing to keep a lead.. (granted, it was still early in our game)

      No moral victories

      We knew this 3-game stretch of Memphis, Tulane and Army would be tough. We lost by 8, 8 and 11 points. We are another year away (with better players and coaches).

      Any way to see the replay?

      Fire the OC. The defense showed up.

      3 times within 15 yards and walking away with 0 points. There is nothing about that that is on the defense. Emmitt is right.
