can WE now start a countdown to a new coach and qb

It's wasted play %. When our backs aren't against the wall, we piss away first and second downs as if the drives won't ever end. Then with little time remaining, we go into the only thing we're good at.

Piss poor coaching and a lack of knowing how to coach. All this can be blamed on Synder

Ok, but why do we go into Superman mode only when the game is on the line? Why the mediocrity during the 80% of the time the offense is on the field? I guess I am questioning the coaching. One thing is for sure, I don't think we can run Portis into the ground this season

In this game, the playcalling was horrendous. If we kick the field goal instead of faking it, it's a 13 point game in which the quarterback, who yeah, you might have argued that he cost you two drives, threw the ball great all day.

Zorn is usually not this horrendous of a playcaller, but taking the ball out of the QBs hand on the goal line every time you get there is getting tiresome really fast.
