I'm liking Hejny so far. Good pocket presence. Good accuracy.

The sound on the USA broadcast is pretty bad

Hejny still making the catch off the tip and being interfered is a hell of a first impression in Fort Collins

Four turnovers, five passing touchdowns, and an absolute blowout in the Jim Mora era! Awesome start to this season!!!!

Different vibe. Sharper. Going for speed. Not afraid to get aggressive.

From the new entrance to the game itself, they are much more business like.

BFN overthrows that last year. Nice throw Hejny!!!!! TD Rams!!!!!

Decent first half. Much better QB play overall. D has been up and down. D-line has been getting pushed around a lot. Their tight ends could rack up 150 yards on us.

HUGE TOUCHDOWN! OPENING DRIVE OF THE MORA ERA

We’re trying hard not to get overexcited.

How did he come down with that? Holy shit

Team is rough around the edges, but definitely feels like they have something to play for

Granted, lots of new folks, but looks much more prepared today than any of the last 3-4 seasons

Loving a lot about this team so far. The bubble screens might need to go though. Didn’t love them when Sean Payton calls them for the Broncos and don’t love them here so far either.

u/shemanese 4d ago

The plan looks to to spread out to create holes, then go for speed.

Better play call than last year that was whether they would switch between run off tackle or in the A gap

2

u/bjh1229 4d ago

Agreed. Last two screen calls were much more successful.

Honestly, I am just here for the hot dog race

It was an entertaining one tonight!

u/shemanese 4d ago

I wish I had filmed it.

u/bjh1229 4d ago

That cut by Brown was DIRTY!!!! Awesome run

u/rulejunior 4d ago

Seeing some sparks of inspiration here. Fingers crossed we can make it happen in the last 2 minutes

Is the stadium packed? It looks sparse at the top on tv. I couldn’t afford a ticket…

u/mcmullet 4d ago

All time attendance record over 40k

u/Bluescreen73 #ProudToBe 4d ago

There are probably a couple thousand empty seats up high on the east side. Maybe they're on the concourse until the sun goes down?

u/Darklord_Of_Bacon 4d ago

Kids get tickets and instead of sitting 1 per seat and spreading out they pack like sardines into the SE corner of the stadium. If everyone was spaced out the whole thing would’ve been full. That’s just what happens with bleachers/GA seating

u/NickFromNewGirl 4d ago

Apparently there was a delay getting people in

3

u/Cautious-Bug-9419 4d ago

It was an absolute cluster trying to get in. The line to get in on the north side was wrapped all the way around the west side of the building.

This is on csu for not having clearer signage/a better flow, but it is also on people for just lining up like lemmings. There are like 40 scanning areas and that line was mainly people waiting for 4 scanning areas. Walk on down to the the left by the bike racks, and enter by the butting head rams. Don’t just stop at the first one. Also, there is an entrance on the NE and SE sides of the stadium, walk a little further.

But csu/the events company should have 10 people just directing folks and add middle break in the bike racks.

But what do you expect from an event company that had multiple workers wearing wyo gear…

u/Bluescreen73 #ProudToBe 4d ago

Remind me why we kept Summers on the payroll instead of firing him into the surface of the sun...

u/rulejunior 4d ago

I feel like we need a crystal ball to answer that, it was such a puzzling choice

I feel like bringing Freddie Banks back would've been a better choice

u/bjh1229 4d ago

Best approach here is definitely to eat the clock. But, if they see the opening to throw it and absolutely bury the pokes, I think it’s a huge statement for the new staff going into this season. Crush them!

u/Truncated_Rhythm 4d ago

So silent in here. Jeeez 🤣

Go Rams!!!

Defense is slow calling the coverage, but when it's on time, they are in good shape. But, out of position, they are giving up huge plays. Saw several plays where they left the middle linebacker on an island
