Didn't Chaney blow it again?

In the first half we were driving pretty good so he decides to take the ball out of Brays hands on a 3rd and 3 and put in that stupid wild cat(that hardly anyone runs now) and it goes no where.Sorry but that was weak on Chaneys part!!

Yea, we ran the ball well yesterday. And we did nothing but run it on the drive that got us to within 7 points. And that was good. And then our defense held twice late--and that was good.

And then, people, WHAT DID CHANEY DO with 4/5 minutes left in the game? We started throwing it again--that's what we did! And what happened? An interception--on a risky pass play that we did not need. And then a Bray fumble on a pass play. So I would argue that Chaney f**ked up again. We should have stuck with the run, kept things simple--but instead Bray starts flinging it around, Mr. Casual starts getting pressured by the rush--and we/he commits two late TOs and UT loses the game. So in fact we again didn't stick with the RUN as much as we should have--and it cost us.

Wow! Idiot comments again this early in the morning. I know its going to be hard for you when this team starts winning cause you will have nothing to cry about. Maybe you should go back to the Bama board until things get better enough for you.

Fact that we're discussing late game playcalling makes it clear we were in the hunt! How many of us honestly believed we would be this close to #5 in their house? Wild, crazy, disappointing, exhilarating - what a game.

What did you think about Danielson's comment during the game that you could tell if Tennessee was going to run by the placement of the running back? Chaney may want to think about changing that.

Personally, I think this was one of Chaneys better games from a play calling perspective. Besides, putting 44 on the board should be more than enough points to secure victory. If you're looking to blame someone, you need to start with Sal and our defense.

Play calling was a lot better this game.

Yep. Even Gary Danielson said Cheney called a great game. I believe our offense did well. Tyler failed to execute on some crucial plays by missing Hunter twice, throwing the ball to the wrong spot on the Patterson Interception, and the fumble. Our kicking game sucks. Maybe this is where coaching needs to improve. Secondary still cannot cover. Maybe they get it down in the next few weeks but it is a new Scheme. At least the D did get a TD for us.

Nope, he didn't blow it again.

UGA was expecting us to run it alot again and had the box stacked against us after giving up another TD to our tough running.

Bray got rushed and made a bad pass to the wrong side of our WR and it was picked.

If the pass had been well placed to the sideline side then our WR would have caught it and the D player couldn't have done anything about it.

Bray got rushed hard and made a mistake by trying to make a big play instead of just falling down and protecting the ball so he fumbled it instead of getting another chance to try and make a big play.

These things happen to even the best in the NFL with years of experience so don't try to rag on Bray or CJC because both of them were just trying to get a huge Win for us.

Nothing is ever perfect in football.

VFL...GBO!!!

Good post. I agree.

Yeah that was disturbing. We better change that quick.

He almost called a perfect game IMO.. Yeah there were a few plays that he maybe shouldn't have ran.... It takes a team, not half of one to beat good teams..

Plus, we started out with a 5 yard penalty. With only 4 minutes left, and a 1st and 15 conventional wisdom says you have to throw the ball.

If he had run the ball 3 times, we would have people claiming he was stupidly trying to establish the run.

We scored 44 against the #5 team in the country and YOU are wanting to blame it on the OC????

Actually we can. I'll get to Sal later, but Chaney's really huge, glaring deficiency was on display for all to see with the game on the line especially since he actually called his best game as an OC ever last night.

He has done nothing to develop Bray's natural talent. Everything about the last half of Canto 4 owed itself to Bray's under-development as a big time QB. Everything about the bad throws was down to a lack of simple, fundamental QB play.

I put that all on Chaney. Two weeks with David Cutcliffe would turn us into real contenders.

(Sal is worth a separate write up)

How about that bad call where he called the pass play where Bray is to throw the ball through CP's hands, instead of into them. JC has to go.

Chaney did call a good game--UNTIL the last four minutes. Then he reverted to the same BS he always reverts to--let's start flinging it--and we commit two TOs. You guys are missing two fundamental facts: The first is that throwing the ball is a lot riskier than running it--more bad things can happen. And second rule is, when Bray is facing a decent defense, pass plays get even riskier because he get panicky. We started passing the ball again and committed two turnovers when we did.

Well, this is idiotic. You have to pass some. The first INT was just a bad throw. The fumble was caused by the fact we had a phantom false start call and needed 15 yards for a first down. The last INT was with 16 seconds left. Since you used 2 late interceptions to attack Chaney, I can only assume your dumbass would have run the ball with 20 seconds left and 70 yards to go.

I only got to see the 4th qtr and I will be watching the game on my DVR later today. On the "Bray fumble" I can't pin it on Bray. That was so spectacular D and a missed block somewhere. Chaney probably should have stuck to his guns running the ball but........ah hell. Let me watch the whole game before I start my analyzing.

On the interception that sealed the game, did anyone else think that the ball was far from being even close to secured when he was ruled down?

Yeah Chaney blew it. WTF? This is the type of post that screams of idiot....

U do realize u have to throw the ball in order to stop the clock right on an incomplete Ever played before?

I think Daniel-san experienced "beginner luck" :)

Ever since the second half of Akron, I think the playcalling and run game have gotten much better. Chaney is now even using the FB some as well as an occasional shovel pass/screen. It hasn't been perfect but he seems to be improving.

This one was on the D. They were just too slow and out of position.

How many minutes were left on the drive on which Bray through the INT? Six? There was PLENTY of time to run the ball--and in fact running the ball kept us in the game since we were making first downs and keeping the ball from georgia, so that couldn't score more. The fact is, we again got away from the run and it cost us.
