sounds like a 2-3 coachI guess it's not as easy to be the nice guy when the pressure is on
If it's the truth, then what's the problem. If you call a run and the QB throws it, there isn't a hell of a lot you can do about it. Everyone is complaining about "why didn't they run it" -- we'll they called a run and the supposed best QB in the west, threw it instead --- get it?

Agree completely...It should have been a simple hand off... Coaches got cute and it cost you guys the game as I see it and you never ever throw players under the bus... Throwing players under the bus could split the team and unity of your team. Then its a downward spiral IMO.. Dumb move of many dumb moves by your coach!Simple hand off game over...save your breathe.
Secondly. .you're a garbage coach if you throw your kids under Bus for a game you mismanaged.
.What you don't understand is the game should have never come to that.
no. It was a run pass option, get it? You either kneel the ball and win, or hand off to a rb/Fb and win. There should never have even been the slightest temptation of a pass.If it's the truth, then what's the problem.

Woe to Riley if that is going to be the way we operate. People have been especially kind to Riley but if the standard is call it as you see it that will change and not to his benefit.I think riley calls it how it is, if someone is under the bus, riley didn't put them there.
They ran up the gut twice and got stuffed. I don't mind trying to catch the D pinching in with a designed QB roll out but he should have been told clearly, if it blows up, fall down. There is no glory in picking up the first down if it requires a pass.So

Saying like it is is not throwing anybody under the bus.
What is wrong with some of you?
I am more dissapointed by this board than the game.
F all of you who come out the woodwork like cockroaches when the lights go off.
This board is filled with cockroaches.
Did some of you even watch the game? That 3rd down play looked like a pass play all the way. Even if it were a run/pass option, it was still a terrible call. There's no excuse for not running a simple run-only play. NONE!
What he needs to do is sit his ass on the bench. POB can't get here soon enough.
Dude could end up being Andrew Luck too. I can guarantee you he's miles better than Armstrong though. TA is not a quarterback...Dude could very well end up being a Harrison Beck

I like your optimism...however TA has made leaps and bounds this year and actually is a huge reason we cane back against Miami...he made a bonehead play tonight, but I like his leadership and if anything he is a playmaker.
If you watch tape you will see guys running wide open in every game this year and we don't have a guy that can get them the ball. A real qb would be scary in this offense. TA isn't that guy.
Before todays game TA was 58% completion and a 140 something qbr (I believe it was the best or second best big ten qbs) he hasnt played bad at all...the Miami game we had a TON of drops.
The sad part is you and many others on this board actually think TA is a good qb.
I dont tgink hes a good qb i think hes a great athlete that is developing into a decent qb...one game he reverts back to his old mechanics IN BAD WEATHER and everyone is ready to torch him
I've been posting the last few weeks that Tommy has a poor football IQ. That was in display again on that play.Langdorf & MR both said it was a bootleg all the way. TA wasn't supposed to throw it. Tommy really messed up. For a junior with his experience why he threw it was beyond stupid. He could have stayed in bounds and ran another 40 seconds off the clock.
