What a sorry mess.

I believe this is the worst coached NU team I have ever seen in decades and that includes the 2007 team
MR is is letting MR hang himself
I'm sick of hearing we don't have the talent. If our OC was competent and used this teams talent I'm not sure we wouldn't be undefeated.
If you knew anything about football you would realize that Danny Langsdorf calls a good game. Go back and watch the tape of the game. We have receivers open on EVERY SINGLE PLAY. Tommy can't get it to them because he 1) can't make reads 2) can't throw the ball well enough to get it to them. Give us a competent qb and this team would have won 9 or 10 games.
Your kidding right? We have the worst QB Nebraska's had in generations and very mediocre RBs. We were never going undefeated and probably no better than 8-4 if everything went great!
I don't think Mike is LETTING Tommy hang himself, but Tommy is certainly going out of his way to do it. 7 picks in his last two games. Good thing we went up 21-0 against Rutgers....
Yes, thanks to having a dude who was a Heisman candidate at running back. It's weird how often people tend to ignore that.
You call everybody idiots when people point out some serious coaching blunders with this staff. Maybe you should save that for when you know...do something of note? I'm afraid you may be waiting awhile. And by that time, Riley will be retired.
Went up 21-0and started throwing.... did Tommy check into those throws or were those called plays from coaching? rhetorical question emoji
There are games where you could make the argument we should have run the ball more (Illinois sticks out) but Iowa was stuffing the run today. It doesn't help that newby is just not a good running back. Like Tommy, he's got the tools to be better than he is, but when the game is going on they both fall back on bad habits. Tommy throws off his back foot and Newby doesn't have any vision.
If a player isn't coachable don't play him, to do otherwise is Poor coaching
See, this is why people who bitch about Langsdorf can't really be taken seriously for the most part. We went up 21-0 largely BECAUSE of the passing game. Then Tommy went back to being Tommy and we actually STOPPED passing the ball because his decisions were so awful, and we stopped scoring. Those of you who think we should be running all the time aren't paying attention to how little our run game produces, even when we lean on it.
Sure, I mean, if he's still better than the alternative, then you should totally bench him. That will go well.
Yeah no need to run the ball and clock, then punt and take momentum and 21point lead into half on the road.... silly fans
Then what's your CotD@mn excuse for the coaches leaving him in there???? You sorry @$$ Riley lovers CAN'T have it several ways!!!
1. It's the talent.
2. It's the locker room.
3. It's the QBs IQ
4. It's the fans.
5. It's the coaches' first year here.
STOP IT! If you can't put responsibility on the head coach and the staff he chose, what kind of leadership is there? Answer: NONE.
Guess you don't know what it means to commit to the run. We dabble. That is the entire issue. Oh well. DL doesn't get it either. He thinks this is the NFL.
