Laughable Clock Management
« on: September 21, 2013, 10:43:41 PM »
Down by 2 scores with under three minutes and we run the play clock all the way down on three consecutive plays. FYBS.

With three timeouts, it may have worked had not the cough-up king not fumbled the ball off the hip of a blocker opening the way to the end zone.

30 seconds left after a 10 second runoff from a penalty, we snap the god damned ball with 10 seconds left in the game down by 2 rough ridin' scores. JFC it would have been better to just rush the field goal team on the field. At least an onside kick and hail mary would still have been on the table. Bill needs to just quit. Let Sean finish this disaster of a season and then let Curry hire a real rough ridin' coach.

Why on earth do you run the option inside the ten when you are down two possessions with three minutes remaining??? JFC

If I'm QB and Snyder sends that play in with 10 seconds on the play clock like he always does so I don't have time to call something that makes sense, I just spike the rough ridin' football and tell Bill to try again.

I have never seen worse clock management than those last two drives. Unbelievable.

How exactly is a short side option supposed to work when the QB is too slow to get to the corner and doesn't like contact?

No pitch option, short side or not, is going to work when you have a QB who lets the read play both him and the pitch. For the option to be effective, the QB has to expect to take a hit every time whether he keeps it or not, and Waters is too big of a pussy to let that happen.

Same here. I was stunned, not normal Bill. I mean what are head coach's for if they can't manage the last five minutes properly?

our late-game clock management sucked last year too.

How much Bill have you watched? Bill consistently mumped time management at the end of games up before his dementia. It's only going to get worse from here.

Like, we were running the play clock down to 1 second the entire drive with under 3 minutes to go and down by 10. I don't think any other head coach in America would have done that.

I'm not completely sure that it wasn't more Waters' fault than Bill's, but it was probably Bill. At some point, Waters just needs to run the first play that is called regardless of what the defense looks like and stop looking at the sideline, though.

A complete rough ridin' trainwreck on a team you've been able to move on pretty well.
