Little disappointed in the way the season played out. I really thought this was ND yr. Blame it on injuries...or whatever, I really don't care.
This team showed some heart today. I honestly thought they were going to lay down after Smith got hurt. They didn't, they stepped it up! The defense could not contain Barrett at all once Smith went out. The LB were to slow to stop him.
The only things that really pissed me off this game. BK play calling at times was dumb. Got away from the short passes that were working so well in moving the ball. It would have helped move the clock and opened things up. I thought Adams had a hell of a game and feel very comfortable with him next yr. The tackling was straight up pathetic in this game, I mean really fucking sad. When Barrett is dragging guys 2/3 yards after contact, I mean comeon.....You can't tackle for these guys and it has been an issue all yr. Maybe BK and BVG need to get back to basics once a week. Every time BVG ran a stunt with the DL, Zeke ran right where that DL was...great vision on that kid....The other thing was the CB playing so far off the WR at times. They were playing catch all game. I am sure this has to do with the fact they were young kids, but at some point you need to take the training wheels off and man them up and see what happens. You had nothing to lose after going down 14. Just let them play after that...
Well....I bleed blue and gold so I will be in the same spot next yr, ready to fight it out. Lets hope the young kids learned a lot this week. It can only help!!
See you all next yr!!
