He’s gotta be hurt

KYU

Nov 19, 7:46am

He’s hurt so we don’t give him redzone touches? And injured players can play

Ron Mexico

Nov 19, 8:06am

Ok, bummer. Put in Moa who’s been an absolute beast. Or Ropati for that matter

That’s what I would do

I've been saying that since UCF. Seems like he's on a pitch count

It's what the defense was giving them. Just gotta go with it. The defense has only given the offense 3 opportunities

I’ve noticed this, it’s crazy. He’ll play between the 20s and get pulled

He was in on a read option play and would have walked into the end zone if

How many total plays inside the 10 did we run the last two games?

That's what I don't know but I can think of one game altering situation vs KU

Gunga Galunga

Nov 19, 7:53am

Sample size is pretty important.

shoganai

Nov 19, 7:54am

Throwing a fade on 1st & goal from the 5 for an INT does limit the amount of potential plays.

foofcoug

Nov 19, 8:12am

Throwing an interception does. The route, itself, isn't really material.

shoganai

Nov 19, 8:18am

The fact that an INT was thrown on the same route for a 2 point conversion the previous week means that it should not

I think you're pretty much just making stuff up now.

Retzlaff's 2 known struggles - accuracy and touch passes. If it's not something that needs to be burned in there or

It's really one of the worst options available.

ochobeeguy

Nov 20, 7:55am

Retzlaff hit Keanu Hill on that same play against SMU. I don’t recall you being outraged so maybe you missed that game.

Nov 19, 11:05am

Uh, yes. The matchup was there and the play has been successful in the past. Jake has shown that he can make that

Conan

Nov 19, 11:23am

Ok by your standards...he has made that throw one time for a TD against

imdocrob

Nov 19, 11:45am

Yes, I'm in favor of running successful plays until they aren't successful anymore.

A one time success does not equate to being successful...but yeah if we ran the

I understand what you are saying but I think given the situation we were

imdocrob

Nov 19, 2:56pm

I don't think the call was the issue (although i would have preferred we ran it on that down). The execution was poor.

BYUgoslav

Nov 19, 12:24pm

Another reason why you don't call that play...you are going against a 4 year

Nov 19, 12:34pm

They seemed to be running the ball so well on that drive, I would have liked to

BYUfannonLDS

Nov 19, 8:20am

A different decision by the QB results in a TD. For an offense to be successful

Probably a combo of factors.

I love Ropati but he is not as good as LJ. From the small sample size I’ve

Coug98

Nov 19, 11:58am

I can think of at least 5 crap plays that should have been LJ instead for 2 tds

ochobeeguy

Nov 20, 7:43am

ARod absolutely loses his mind in the redzone.

maxpowers

Nov 19, 8:31am

Until the 2nd half of the UCF game BYU was one of the top teams in the country

NYC and Japan

Nov 19, 1:33pm

That's 5 halves in a row where they have been horrible in the red zone.

Nov 20, 7:45am

AMEN! Been screaming this since the last two games. Makes no sense. LJ is

Cougs2012

Nov 19, 9:27am

And if it’s not LJ, put in Moa

TwinsRight

Nov 19, 9:32am

Yes, why does Moa only get 1 carry, which he turned into a tough 12 yard gain,

robin

Nov 19, 10:22am

That’s part of what made me so mad. Run it if you don’t get in you get a field goal before

NonmormonYfan89

Nov 19, 9:34am

I’m more in favor of Moa inside the 10yd line

MHOP

Nov 19, 9:53am

He’s been back for two games and gotten 2 carries both for over 10 yds a carry

Cougz19

Nov 19, 11:08am

Patterns of Arod's idiocy. He needs to go, should have been gone years ago.

How about Moa...every time that guy touches the ball he runs over guys...runs

Wow! Just wow! Can't blame Jake when Arod doesn't know the best call to make.

Again I say why throw it to the short side of the field...throw it to the far

imdocrob

Nov 19, 2:58pm

Agree, that is why I made that the last sentence in my post. It is a good play

morningcalmcougar

Nov 19, 3:12pm

By poorly executed I hope that means that you think they should have gone

imdocrob

Nov 19, 3:18pm

Yep, we’re in n the same page. Maybe poorly designed is more accurate to say

morningcalmcougar

Nov 19, 8:07pm

Fades are one of the worst plays in all of football especially with Jake.

ochobeeguy

Nov 20, 7:47am

Not being able to throw it well doesn't make the fade a bad play, just not one

morningcalmcougar

Nov 20, 8:47am

They are bad plays in general though. Only 5 successful fades in 2019 NFL.
