BigTen channel commentaor said Speight took care of the ball last week. Guess he didnt see the game, but just looked at the stat lines.

Man, Speight looks like the pitcher "trying to throw strikes". Wilton, take some deep breaths son and stop "trying to hit the open reciever' and Just "hit the open reciever"!!!

Yeesh....we do not look very good. Isaac cannot stop his feet on that third down run.
September 16th, 2017 at 1:24 PM ^
At me when I said this team is awful and could go 8-4 or worse. Based on today's demonstration, I have to stick by my guns. 1/8 out of red zone trips this year. Sp8 is pathetic and can't pass; misses open receivers, takes sacks, and has no touch. What's with Isaac on 3rd and two stopping, looking for a hole? Teams are supposed to get better as the season progresses and I was willing to cede Cincy as a game of the Yips, but this is a bad harbinger for Harbaugh.

Your prediction seems like it could be true if Wilton doesn't improve. The defense is doing what the defense should do. The Special Teams is fantastic. Offense looks a bit clueless at the moment and cant "finish" in the Red Zone.

Broadneck, my man, if you can't see that Speight isn't a good quarterback then I can't help you. Im simply calling it as I see it. He missed some open recievers "Again". He did have on really bad drop by Crawford, but if you cannot make throws with pressure coming or having to move then you aren't a good qb. That's what good QB's do.
September 16th, 2017 at 4:23 PM ^
may want to rewatch the game before you make that comment. I don't recall seeing receivers wide open all over the field.
Speight has mechanical issues.
September 16th, 2017 at 4:37 PM ^
people disagree with you because you are a troll and a hater; the most negative person on this site. You appear to have very little football IQ to boot. On the first throw of the game, the receiver needs to adjust to the ball. The throws that Speight missed on were mostly because the receivers had no separation, like the fades or the post route in the end zone. He had a couple of bad throws as ALL QB's are going to have.
At first glance, Isaac should have cut to his right just off of the right side of Hill's butt. I was frustrated that he didn't, but as a guy who has played and coached, I also realize that sometimes players don't execute perfectly.
Was the drop by Crawford on Speight or Crawford? After all the ball was like 1 inch low and 1 inch to the right.

Great run back and I've been waiting for Peeps to break one. Glad we're up but still no offensive TD's.

They were begging me to buy extra seats, packages, etc. If this season progresses the way it appears, they may have more than enough seats next year.

My feeling is it is their school and their team and they you should be able to get tickets if you go to school there.
September 16th, 2017 at 2:00 PM ^
Speight is HORRIBLE. Holy crap. I am not a "sky is falling guy" but he really is a poor QB. Look at Air Force to continue to stuff the box because they know Speight cannot throw down field consistently.
September 16th, 2017 at 3:05 PM ^
September 16th, 2017 at 3:24 PM ^
I believe Speight would throw multiple interceptions each game if he was called upon to throw the ball downfield on a regular basis. That one ball he threw on third down essentially hit the Airforce DB in the side and should have been intercepted. That was pure luck in favor of Speight.
September 16th, 2017 at 3:26 PM ^
I hope he improves, but if he hasn't yet im not counting on him to.
September 16th, 2017 at 2:02 PM ^
But he can complete a pass. Sp8 would have blown it or thrown a pick. Gosh he's awful. Come on Harbaugh, you don't have anyone better?
September 16th, 2017 at 2:04 PM ^
No, I don't beleive we have anyone better. Harbaugh would be playing them if there was someone who could throw the ball better.
September 16th, 2017 at 2:06 PM ^
Here is what is evident, the Michigan play calling says "We don't trust our QB".
September 16th, 2017 at 2:10 PM ^
Even if we hold on to win, what do we learn from this game? 1) M's offense is a joke at all levels from play calling to QB., 2) opposition: just line up 8 guys in the box and play man because sp8 can't throw.
September 16th, 2017 at 2:28 PM ^
September 16th, 2017 at 3:07 PM ^
sp8 doesn't see the blitz again. We're 1/10 in the red zone. Horizontal passing and predictable up the middle runs. Just pathetic.
There just isn't enough beer in the fridge today.
September 16th, 2017 at 2:55 PM ^
We're three games into season three, and I just don't see any progression with this year's team. Offense - abysmal, no improvement. Defense fundamentally solid but play recognition remains difficult and DB's have yet to tighten up. Next week is opening day in conference play against a surprising Purdue team. It's way too early to give up, but one cannot say that Michigan is back where we need to be or that we're a top ten team.

Man, will say Crawford dropping that ball doesn't help Speight. Im guessing Crawford was thinking "What is this brown leather oblong object coming right to my hands!?". I think he hasnt seen a ball thrown that way.
September 16th, 2017 at 3:18 PM ^
It speaks to the character of this team and the lack of leadership on the part of the players. Guys like sp8, O'Korn, McCray, Isaac need to step up and set the tone for this team. The young guys like Gary, Bush, etc. are playing lights out but that comes from within. Perhaps it is the Hoke legacy and it won't change until they are gone?
I'm watching these guys walk off the field like they just lost. It's clear the players aren't having fun and this team is in trouble.
September 16th, 2017 at 3:21 PM ^
I don't think its leadership. I beleive we have SOLID leadership, but leadership cannot make your QB hit recievers he should. The play calling for the entire second half clearly said "Speight, we are not going to let you lose this game for us". Tons of runs and quick short throws. He did hit Perry with one of only two quality throws in the entire second half. Unfortunately, the other was dropped by Crawford.
