Week 3 Discussion

[VitoStallion]

These close games each week is not good for the ticker! Nice game RENO!

Gameball goes to Troy Wells who had 6 catches for 156 yds with one of them a 93 yard TD. Johnie Loving was 21/36 for 369yds on the day with 2TD's and threw 1 pick.

Madison is very happy to be 2-1 after 3 straight road games. We have a bye next week then ship out again on the road to Lawrence in Week 5. What a schedule!

Thanks, I owe you a fruit basket. That 0-3 start for Reno is really helping my team right now as they figure out their identity---we can't run very well right now

I cant run very well either right now. Of course my LT Adair didnt play today but the running game still is not right when he is in there. We have some work to do on the bye week.

So the Firebirds pulled out the win in another ugly game.....just check out those 3rd down conversions. Ouch. :shock:

This was the play of the game in my mind. Madison was down 10-0 on the road and was on their own 7 yard line and in trouble. The crowd was going nuts. Loving takes the snap...

1-10-MAD07 (05:35) MAD 9 Loving pass completed to 84 Wells for 93 yards and a touchdown! Wells gained 62 yards after the catch.

A 93 yard pass for a TD is a big play? You sure? :scratchhead: :P

You know what i mean. Momentum changer right there for my team. That play got us right back in the ballgame. If we would have made a mistake at all down there on the 7 yard line that could have been the ballgame. It was a HUGE play for the Demons!

I was just getting ready to line up a firing squad for my entire coaching staff, my kicker, and my doormat D-line, when I came across a Whiskey Tango Foxtrot stat.

Overall yards per game allowed.

1. Burlington 278.9

2. Iowa City 280.0

WTF does this tell me? Some one help me, I'm on stat fucking overload. How the hell do I lose 3 games and lonly allow 280 yards per game? WTF?

[dberner30]

miss a ton of FGs and PATs.

Giving up all those yds on the ground and not through the air.

Anemic offense. Currently 30th in Points per Game.

Maybe it's time to get a real QB, eh rasher.

Yeah I know what you mean, just fuckin' around man. Loosen up BOSS, you seem so damn serious on these boards.... :P

You mean pay a guy 9.6 million to sit in a hospital bed like you do?

You have a QB with a career 73.3 rating and a RB with a career average of 3.88. Do you need further evidence as to why you aren't winning games? Seriously.. you don't have a Ravens-esque defense.

[roadrash]

I couldn't help but rib ya.

I have considered the possibility I made a mistake by trading out of the 11th spot in the draft when I should have picked up Wilson. But last year Kroll did ok. It was his second year, and I hoped he would develop into a decent QB. I also hope that my O-line is good enough to make him better.

As for Beamer, that is my fault. I'm having a hard time keeping him in. It seems my coach likes to pass with him in the game, and then pull him for run plays alot. I dont' trust my backups that much and would prefer to have Beamer get more carries. I'll figure it out, hopefully sooner rather than later.

I guess I can't really complain about my D at the moment. And my kicker is good, I just hope my O can get him a bit closer in the future.

[Cringer]

Don't know about the theory of your o-line making your QB better, I guess in some ways maybe. But damn good receivers sure will do it.....
