Week #14 Discussion

[Hoosier]

lost by six, recovered an onside kick, but time ran out. Close but no cigar...

[Chris Rex]

Now that the dust has settled, is 12 in row to start the season (or 12 in a row in 1 season) any sort of record? I need something to cheer me up...

[Matt]

man, freaking jay freaking caro for eff sakes!!!!
ugh. I think i need to go puke

Portland	Att	Comp	Yards	Sk/Yd	TD	LG	Int	Rate
Jay Caro	37	26	492	0/0	4	77	0	148.8

[Matt]

Portland: Strong formation with two tight ends, strength is left. The defense is in a 34 and 2-deep bump-and-run coverage, expecting the run. 1-10-POR29 (4Q: 10:48) Jay Caro pass completed to WR Omar Robinson for 71 yards and a TOUCHDOWN! Robinson gained 40 yards after the catch. Portland 26, Newark 24

(4Q: 10:48) Extra point by Alan Ballard was good. Portland 27, Newark 24

[Matt]

Newark: I formation, strength is left. The defense is in a 43 with nickel personnel and 2-deep man-to-man coverage, keying aggressively on the pass.
2-14-NWK16 (4Q: 09:53) King Burger pass was intended for TE Quinn Glover and was intercepted by CB Jerome Caldwell at the NWK31. The interception was returned 12 yards. Tackled by Quinn Glover. The quarterback threw away from the double coverage.

[Matt]

boom!

Caro passes and caught for a huge gain and a TD.

We shit the bed and thrown an INT in our own side of the field on the next possession.

[Matt]

Portland then kicks a FG.

We have a 3 minute drive and then this

Portland: Pro formation, strength is right. The defense is in a 34 and strong-side man, otherwise cover-7 zone coverage, expecting the run. 1-10-POR20 (4Q: 04:31) Butch Devaney ran outside the right tackle for 3 yards. Tackled by S Sean Hitchcock. The ball was fumbled and recovered by POR Norbert Parten to the POR23.

Portland: Single-Back formation with trips receivers, strength is right. The defense is in a 34 and 2-deep bump-and-run coverage, expecting the run. 2-7-POR23 (4Q: 03:45) Jay Caro pass completed to WR Dominic Field for 77 yards and a TOUCHDOWN! Field gained 69 yards after the catch. Portland 36, Newark 24

[Matt]

You kidding me? another pass and long TD in YAC.
ugh!!!

sort of anti-climatic

but we end up scoring a TD with 1:30 left to have us down by 5
We get the onside kick, but cannot score.

Man, I hate losing. I hate losing even more by being shredded by a QB to the tune of almost 500yds. You kidding me?

GG jeffrey. It was a good game. got the heart rate going. You've got a great chance to get back to the big one and do some serious damage.

Good luck the rest of the way

[Matt]

i need a drink

[CyYoung]

Gun to my head, I KNEW we were gonna lose this one.

What I didn't expect is how absolutely inept my D would become.

Overnight we went from one of the best pass Ds in the league to starting the game allowing Penn to go 11/12 for 145 yards.

It's like we weren't even playing.

Ah well, at least Madison Won :-)

Congrats, Penn

Oh, chalk up another F-Birds injury. Opening play, I believe. Again.

Hamilton is on fire this year I don't know why. Even my FB caught 6 passes for 68 yards. Your defense was able to stop us for some drives but some other drives, it was like there wasn't any D on the field.

IF we could always play like that I would be very confident about our chances this year.

GG Chris, good luck the rest of the way

I knew we didn't have a change in Tulsa. Good game Tarcone. We just aren't anywhere near as good as we were three years ago. Good luck the rest of the way.

GG Kozure. We big played you to death. Seems to be the theme this season.
Good luck to you as well. You have your hands full in that division. Yikes.

Now we get to go to red hot Texas. This is a scary game.

[JesterBlaze]

Great game, Kobeck! Schwartz did just what I expected and Chapman would not be stopped.

This is a tough season at the helm of the Beloved Phantoms. What I thought would be one of my best defensive seasons ever has been a joke and I've still got no answer.


And there's a fuckin' cheese-steak commercial on and no decent shop in this frickin' desert! Why can't a man just have a steak & cheese sub? It's not natural for a culture not to eat steak & cheese subs!! :shoot:

********

Nice pic, tarcone!!
