This is grade A horsefeathers. This loss was on the coaching staff and you know it.
-
Perfect
-
You can't have it both ways. He made the right throw and the receiver slowed down. That was a TD if Scott doesn't quit on the route.
-
Awful clock management, cowardly play calling, and I'm sure there are other things I'm missing.
-
This seriously has to be the worst tackling team I've ever watched.
-
That was 6 if he runs through it.
-
That's on Scott. He slowed down.
-
This play calling is trash.
-
Disagree in that situation. They would have had 3rd and 6 instead of 14, which we know this offense isn't proficient at converting. Now, it all worked out, but given the options, I'd prefer the stopped clock and 3rd and 6 every time.
-
Lewis was in the flat and he certainly could have thrown it at his feet, but I'm nitpicking at this point.
-
This has been wildly unorthodox but he's generally making good decisions outside of the sack.
-
I couldn't figure out where that was going but the tip at the line caused the pick.
-
You're not winning many games against an offense this good scoring 20 pts. They need more regardless.
-
That was an incredible route by Moore to stay just far enough away from the safety to give Fields somewhere to put the ball.
-
Ouch. Helmet to the wrist to cause the fumble.
-
Eh, I'm okay with it because they needed like 5 yards to get into a reasonable FG range. Normally I'd be in your camp 100%.
-
That 1st down TFL seems like something Fields should be seeing pre-snap and getting away from but I'm no expert and maybe my expectations are too high.
-
You're just pedantically insufferable.
-
*parody. The B1G is so bad across the board outside of the big 3.
-
I think the 3 consecutive smokes/WR screens and getting -2 and 0 yards on the 2nd and 3rd attempt after 8 yards on 1st down tell me there's a lot that can be done with play calling. I don't have the solutions but making calls like that is inexcusable.
-
This might be one of the dumbest discussions I've ever read with huge misunderstanding of physics and human physiology to boot. Defenders are better, infields are faster, parks are smaller, temperatures are warmer, and about 800 other things are different now that make things different and hitting generally more difficult.
-
I'm sure you probably saw this already as close as you follow things but Canario is playing in the Dominican Winter League apparently with the Cubs approval, so he must be feeling okay. I don't mind him getting a bunch of plate appearances there against a decently high level of competition.
-
Brant Brown in Milwaukee in 1998(?) was pretty similar, right down to last week of the season in a game they needed. Just a clank off the side of the glove on a routine fly ball that the Cubs managed to survive.
-
Yanks up 5-4 and still hitting. 2 outs.

@Transmogrified TigerNah, I'm not griping about sequencing the batting order or little things like that. I'm talking about playing the long game and ignoring ridiculous things like Dansby saying no more days off, riding the same relievers every close game, not having guys up in the pen ready to go when it's clear a starter is close to the end of the rope in a game, letting Steele throw the most pitches he's thrown all season for the last 4 weeks when he's at an all time high in IP. Obvious stuff that we can all see and while it may result in a lost game at the time because you have to use a lesser reliever or get a starter out before you may want to, it results in less wear and tear long term so guys are healthy and available at the end of the season when things are down to the wire and you don't have half your reliable pen guys on the IL. The Brewers have started Colin Rea, Julio Teheran, and Adrian Houser in a third of their games. Peralta is averaging a little over 5.5 IP per start and Woodruff has started 10 games all year. I will concede that their pen is miles better and that hides a lot of warts, but they have exactly 2 regular position players (3 with Canha added) with an OPS+ over 100, so he's pushing the right buttons to score runs.
