Leathernecks

Huge play by Jones. That could have been bad.

Please don't be too passive on defense this possession. Don't let them get a rhythm with prevent defense. 

I thought our line opened up a hole, but looks like MSU just didn't want to have anybody there. Still counting it as a win!

Yikes…

The box of Kleenex is placed well. Might need to cry about that stat.

Wow, a Robbins sighting. Glad to see him with a good rush to force a penalty.

Tuttle not seeing guys who are open.  Sometimes because he's having to rush his pass.

This would be a completely different offense if we could just block. No time to do anything passing today.

We are so ugly inside the 20. 

We have to have one of the lowest td% in the country.

Defense came to play today. Let's hope the offense can finish a drive.

I don’t think the offensive line has moved them forward at all on any run the entire quarter. It’s so frustrating. I can’t imagine how Carr feels. 

It has to be frustrating. He runs hard, but holes are few and far between.

I think you'd be better off posting here.

Big tackle! 

Can't keep getting stopped in the redzone. I like that we went wildcat on a play, I just wish we wouldn't have gone empty backfield. Everybody knows exactly what's going to happen at that point, and our OL can't win enough 1 on 1s to make that work.

We really need to punch this in. Make MSU play from behind and they might be a completely different team.

Enjoying our play calling so far. Quick throws to our best weapons. Playing with some tempo too. Great call on that 3rd down.

That's not a good sign for how this one will be called.

Really want to take it to these jokers.

Ha, yep. There are just too many people. We barely make eye contact on the subway most times! Though I will say that it’s very different where I live, we all kind of know each other at least by sight and habits. 

"There goes that guy with all the plants on his balcony."

Almost my whole team is a lot like my draft choices...questionable.

Don’t remember who the O-Line coach was when Wilson was head coach but would love to have him back. Our O-Line used to be a big strength back then. Hiller has been bad he has got to be let go

 if the offense doesn’t get better Sheridan as well. I’ve watched a lot of other offenses last couple weeks college and NFL just to compare to Sheridan and it’s not even close. The creativity and deigns have been better than Sheridan  in about every game  I’ve watched. He reminds me at ton of Deboard. The old OC we got Tennessee. Defense is just Teeing off on us because our O- Line isn’t good and our play calling is just as bad. 

Under Wilson it was Greg Frey. He's bounced around a lot since IU with not much success. I think those lines were pretty much all Wilson, and Frey just happened to benefit from it.

I think there's some talent there, but I think coaching is the big issue. We have quite a few guys who were decently sought after, but we're struggling to develop anybody individually, and we're struggling to get them to play together as a cohesive unit.

Bedford had a lot of big schools after him towards the end of his recruitment. Carpenter was likely going to be the starting center for Michigan. Powell has a ton of experience, and has been in the program for 2 years. Jones keeps being talked up as wanting to go to the NFL, and he can't block anybody (obviously a huge part of that is the shape he's in, but he's not any better this year when he's 40 pounds lighter).

With the talent and experience we have on the line, this should have been the year it starts clicking and coming together. It obviously hasn't so far, and unless there is a complete 180, Hiller needs to be out.

Casino management is requesting you guys to please step onto that special elevator that goes to the basement.

Meanwhile, I'm sitting around getting all the free drinks I want! They hope I'll never leave!

A guy in my other league has Jackson, Andrews, and Taylor. At halftime, he was projected to win by about 3 points. He's currently projected to win by 60 points. Crazy half.

In my dynasty league, I have Russell Wilson and Barkley.  Barkley sprained his ankle and was carted to the locker room.  Super deep at WR, TE, and IDP, but I don't have a single starting QB or RB on my bench.  Might be about time to start tanking.  

Well that was an interesting punt(s).

Penix would make a decent ball-hawking safety, but if he could stay uninjured for more than a quarter doing that, I’d pay for 5fouls’ next divorce.

I'm thinking a left handed relief pitcher.
