Michigan Football = Fucking Pathetic
November 28th, 2020 at 3:21 PM ^
I’d complain but I only could complain for 4 yard pass plays at a time
November 28th, 2020 at 3:23 PM ^
Argggghhhhhhhhhh.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:24 PM ^
Speed in space.....LOL
November 28th, 2020 at 3:25 PM ^
They broke Cade in record time and managed to keep the 5 star RB curse alive and well with ZC xferring!!!
November 28th, 2020 at 3:32 PM ^
I think it may be time to move on from....you know, everyone who currently coaches at Michigan.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:33 PM ^
What offense?????
November 28th, 2020 at 8:36 PM ^
Guess we can’t talk any more about how dumb James Franklin is. Harbaugh sucks worse
November 28th, 2020 at 3:33 PM ^
We played an injured QB all game because we don’t trust our backup QB, who was the starter all season before today, to throw a ball 10 feet in the air
November 28th, 2020 at 3:43 PM ^
This is what I dont understand about our coaching staff . Do we only have the two QB's on the roster ? They didnt think Cade was better than Milton until he got in the game . Its not like our third stringer could be any worse right ? Unless he is injured as well
November 28th, 2020 at 3:57 PM ^
I admire your commitment to still trying to blame this on the QBs.
November 28th, 2020 at 7:56 PM ^
He could not have more obviously been criticizing the coaching staff for their inability to (a) identify and start the better QB for the entire season, (b) pull a clearly injured QB whose hurt shoulder is affecting his ability to throw a pass, and (c) adjust the gameplan to play to our strengths (HH and CE out of the backfield).
November 29th, 2020 at 12:57 AM ^
There have some damning anecdotes in the Harbaugh era (a GA coaching WRs one year has always stuck out in my mind). This might be the biggest. There is NO logical explanation behind this that isn't based on complete ineptitude.
November 29th, 2020 at 8:04 AM ^
I got pushback when bringing up how ridiculous Jim having no WR coach for DPJ and Black’s freshmsn year. If they were my kids I would of been livid.
November 29th, 2020 at 12:11 PM ^
It does look bad but I would have to ask who is actually doing the coaching? Is the HC, OC, or QB coach actually doing most of the hands on coaching of WRs? The result was awful. Something is wrong (duh) but I remain open to official titles being irrelevant at times.
That said, I agree, the WRs were not well taken care of.
November 29th, 2020 at 3:11 PM ^
Leadership has to be a hierarchy, not be committee. Greece, Rome, Mongol, Ming Dynasty, all of them, any you can think of had a hierarchical structure. When I heard a few years ago that Harbaugh was doing plays by committee and other such stuff with nobody officially named as the coordinator I just SMH.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:36 PM ^
I was holding on hope for one more year because I thought McCarthy could be the saving grace. But it's clear that even if he is a stud, the coaching deficiencies across the whole team would still outweigh anything he brings.
When there's more negatives than anything salvageable, you have to start over. Credit to Warriner for a great job during his time at Michigan, but everyone has to go on the team. No holdovers. New coaches, (mostly) new players, new recruits
November 28th, 2020 at 4:45 PM ^
yep, they will break him, just like they break every other QB that comes though. I have no idea what they do in practice all week, but I know making the QB look as confused and hesitant as possible is a big party of pre game prep.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:36 PM ^
Is really really good.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:37 PM ^
They threw what .... 1 pass over 20 yards and 2 slant passes all game?
All other passes were 3 yards out routes, regardless of down and distance.
Absolute shit.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:37 PM ^
Someone made a world class catch on about the only non dink and dunk play called. Nothing tried over the middle. Haskins ran hard. Cade hurt on two plays, and I agree with blogger who said he should not run too much. Not sure why Zach did not get a run. Evans looks like he has more to contribute. Disappointing and frustrating for sure.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:38 PM ^
Well Gattis will be relegated to some obscure OC position or a position coach in his next stop.
November 28th, 2020 at 4:32 PM ^
I'm sure he will land somewhere - not his fault that he was offered OC when he probably was not ready for it. For those wondering where the other so called OC are:
Jedd Fisch* -> QB coach New England Patriots
Pep Hamilton -> QB coach LA Chargers
But Harbaugh has always been the actual OC - with Hamilton he talked about it being a collaborative process - It still is today. Jedd Fisch was successful because then it was just Harbaugh's pro offense and Fisch was teaching it.
*Job title was QB coach, WR coach & Passing Coordinator
November 28th, 2020 at 3:39 PM ^
Dont get it, Cade looked good in relief last week, but he looked like a different qb today :(
November 28th, 2020 at 3:40 PM ^
I think playing not Rutgers will do that
November 28th, 2020 at 3:44 PM ^
PSU had a lot more film on him than Rutgers did.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:45 PM ^
It seemed obvious he was injured . Which Harbaugh seems to have a problem with giving the next qb up a shot for some unknown reason .
November 28th, 2020 at 4:17 PM ^
I turned the game off after Cade got hurt. That HAS to be the issue? I mean I was shocked to read he came back in. If he hurt his throwing shoulder or other bad enough to go in and have it checked out my guess is he was way less than 100% and the throws probably suffered because of it ... no?
November 28th, 2020 at 4:24 PM ^
Did you not watch the game? He was fucking injured on our second drive of the game where we scored to tie the game
November 29th, 2020 at 4:03 AM ^
His performance can't just be chalked up to that. He looked like the inexperienced qb he is in this game, he was constantly throwing to covered receivers and not getting through progressions.
November 29th, 2020 at 9:05 AM ^
Is that the excuse this week?
Cade was fine. The tests they took during the game were negative and he was fine when he came back in. He didn’t start looking “injured” until he was confused and rattled. He had a deer in headlights look on his face, which is not from an injury.
People on here never learn. Joe Milton is Cam Newton. Cade is Tom Brady... Rutgers is probably the worse program in P5 history. Everybody thinks beating Rutgers is some amazing thing? Cade is a front runner. He will leave as soon as JJ or someone else passes him up. No more stupid, “we are dominating the rest of the season” videos for him...
November 29th, 2020 at 10:28 AM ^
I’m sorry but no. I think this is your (well-justified) cynicism speaking. Last week McNamara hit receivers, threw the ball to where they were or where they were going to be. He seemed to be playing from instinct and not in his head when hurried or flushed from the pocket. This week his throws were wildly inaccurate and the confidence gone. It was more than just PSU > Rutgers.
November 28th, 2020 at 4:55 PM ^
Not exactly a shocker.
Rutgers gave up a ton of short passes to McNamara because they had no prep for him and kept running the defense they had installed to stop Milton.
Penn State was prepared for Cade and had their defense jumping short routes and sitting on the short passes that Cade likes to throw.
Michigan's best bet is probably to just put in a new quarterback every game.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:39 PM ^
peed in place
November 29th, 2020 at 12:05 AM ^
Ur in touch with your comedic side.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:39 PM ^
Mike Locksley was right about Gattis
November 28th, 2020 at 5:25 PM ^
Yet Saban went apeshit when he left.
November 29th, 2020 at 3:09 PM ^
He and bama seem to have recovered nicely.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:41 PM ^
Every pass to sideline has harbaugh written all over it . Attack the middle of the field Bo
November 28th, 2020 at 3:42 PM ^
I have a pithy and important comment to post, but I’m going to wait until there are <7 seconds on the play clock to post it.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:46 PM ^
Why put a injured quarterback out there. Knowing he can’t get it done. I know Milton is terrible but you can’t keep McNamara out there. Everything Harbaugh does is just fucking pathetic. The smartest thing he can do is quit right now. He will not be missed.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:47 PM ^
PSU gives up 36 ppg. Congrats on making Michigan fans everywhere completely cave about caring anymore.
Cade = O’Korn. Mesh routes are banned in this offense. Only outs!
November 28th, 2020 at 4:04 PM ^
It's blatantly obvious that Cade was playing injured when he came back after missing almost the entire second quarter with a throwing shoulder injury.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:52 PM ^
The program is such a dumpster fire, they were even piping in crowd noise during our offensive series
November 28th, 2020 at 3:55 PM ^
Unfortunately, the noise was recorded from the 2008 game against Toledo.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:52 PM ^
There is no offense on this team, thw OLine is weak and they can't keep a QB upright
November 28th, 2020 at 3:55 PM ^
The hit the Clemson receiver just took catching that over the middle would have killed two of our receivers.
November 28th, 2020 at 3:55 PM ^
I was surprised that when given the regular Harboffense, Cade looked pretty mediocre.
Oh wait, no I wasn't.
November 28th, 2020 at 4:00 PM ^
It was blatantly obvious that Cade is injured.
