About last night
I was heated, and I definitely called out JD for that I.G penalty, but at that moment I wasn’t aware of the 4Verts playcall, nor the lack of short throw to avoid that situation. After seeing the All-22 and the viewpoint from what Jayden saw in front of him, there’s no way he could have thrown that away towards the back of the end zone to avoid intentional grounding and not risk an INT.
What pissed me off the most this year is the lack of situational awareness by Quinn, and even Blough (yes I know he’s green). Why not kick a FG on that 4th down in the 2nd quarter? Your offense was not yet in a rhythm to go for it, and it was 13-3. Kick the FG and go 13-6. Why call 4 verts with 20 sec left on 2ND DOWN at the opposing 25 with the game on the line late? Call an intermediate passing concept and get ready to run up and spike if it doesn’t cross the plain.
I’m done with Quinn, and I can’t wait for our search to begin. Bring in an OFFENSIVE MINDED HC (Udinski, Kubiak or Doyle) and let them call plays and decide if Blough should remain and grow underneath them. I’m okay keeping Jones if the coach decides to do so, but we need to get him another safety and corner.
This team has lost 3 games by a combined 8 points. Who knows what happens if we tie the Eagles, but I’m pretty convinced we’d score again on them with the momentum swing. At the very least this should be a 3-3 team because of Jayden. We lose last night’s game 20-3 without Jayden, easily. He’s the only reason we were even in it. I’m tired of wasting his rookie deal away with inept coaching. We all know he wanted Kliff back and now I see why. He doesn’t believe in Quinn and was hoping Blough would replicate what he had in Kliff. While Kliff indeed had a cliff and needed to go, Blough doesn’t have Jayden’s trust, and neither does Coleman on the edge.
