Rutgers Snowflakes: The Offense

Wrong thread

He could be a Rutgers fan talking about that electric read keeper by Cade. Rutgers had no answer for that heroic play call.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:19 PM ^
Such an underrated comment in any thread!
September 25th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
It's 2005 and our offense is not very creative.
Edit: Meant this for the offense snowflake.
Edit: Dammit. Forget it. Fits the game, though.
September 25th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
By the end of the season, we're going to set a record for number of attempted inside runs against a 100-man front...
September 25th, 2021 at 8:38 PM ^
It’s crazy that there are 300+ dumbass Michigan fans (me included) that can clearly see running over and over up the middle doesn’t work, but a coach getting paid millions cannot recognize that. SMH
September 25th, 2021 at 10:06 PM ^
Dude whatever a win is a win I like they got some negative tape now…let’s see how they respond….that will tell us the story.
September 26th, 2021 at 9:17 AM ^
iMBlue2 how do you think they will respond? What does the evidence of the last six years point to as a likely response?
September 26th, 2021 at 9:33 AM ^
I don’t know but Wisconsin will.
September 25th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
Put in JJ. Ceiling is higher. Team isn't winning anything this year anyways.
September 25th, 2021 at 9:25 PM ^
I think I know what happened. OSU has shown to have a weak defense like they had in 2018. A balanced offense that can throw and run has a chance against them. People were already talking about Michigan having a chance to beat them this year if the offense improved throughout the year. Harbaugh heard these comments and said “Michigan beat OSU? Not on my fucking watch”
September 25th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
They should have run on 1st down more…
September 25th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
JJ szn amirite?
September 25th, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
looked good in the first.
looked awful in the second.
they need to be better balanced...not like Rutgers has a dominant front 7...
September 25th, 2021 at 7:41 PM ^
It wasn’t even that good in the first. Lots of points left out there. Rutgers adjusted pretty quickly to the run game.
September 25th, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
McNamara never looked right after the targeting. Make of that what you will.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:08 PM ^
Good observation
September 25th, 2021 at 7:25 PM ^
Is there always an excuse for Michigan?
September 25th, 2021 at 7:37 PM ^
well i certainly hope there was a good reason for it
September 25th, 2021 at 9:03 PM ^
But yet Ross seemed fine and wanted to go in after doing pushups on the sideline and was begging to get back in while Michigan was repeatedly getting gashed up the middle. Go figure.
September 25th, 2021 at 10:04 PM ^
My guess is he is too valuable and they felt they were going to win anyway and NEED him next week to be 100%.
September 25th, 2021 at 11:08 PM ^
Yeah. I was as frustrated as anyone during the 2nd half but man, did the first half not happen at all? Did Cade not go 8/11 for 156 yards in the 1st half?
He got his bell ring and it affected him. And all we can see is what happened after that, and whatever happened before is forgotten
September 26th, 2021 at 12:23 AM ^
He could only look left? That does not bode well for the rest of the season.
September 25th, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
Trash.
September 25th, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
We celebrate all wins!
September 25th, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
That’s good! Cause you aren’t going to have much to celebrate in October and November.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:03 PM ^
Hey mitch
fuck off.

Michigan fandom in a nutshell
September 26th, 2021 at 6:45 PM ^
You guys are right. It’s going to be different this year.
September 25th, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
We are a one trick pony and when that pony gets stopped we are in trouble. If this game were played against Wiscy, PSU, MSU, Iowa or OSU we would have been crushed.
September 25th, 2021 at 9:30 PM ^
As an Ohio State fan, I say this with all seriousness and no hyperbole: the Buckeyes' pass defense is so awful-- so significantly worse than Rutgers'-- that no matter how bad you think Gattis is, he is not bad enough to avoid calling lots of pass plays in The Game.
September 26th, 2021 at 8:33 AM ^
Other teams have bad games and they figure out how to fix stuff. Everyone thinks Harbaugh is stubborn because he doesn’t know how to fix stuff despite switching coaches like crazy. I’m guessing OsU will fix their problems. (Fucc the buckeyes.)
September 25th, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
Here it comes. Brace yourselves.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
What is there to say, really? It’s year 7, and Harbaugh can’t field a competent offense. For that reason, he should be fired. Every day they wait prolongs mediocrity.
It doesn’t have to be some foaming-at-the mouth frenzy. Just fire him respectfully and try again. That’s all you can do.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:19 PM ^
Chilll, this looked awful no doubt but remember 2-4 last year. The team’s getting better but it’s not going to happen all at one time (like we thought before the season started). Hopefully we can get JJ in the lineup now. I like Cade but don’t think they can go much further with him as the starter.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:43 PM ^
Last year's team didn't get the benefit of body bags. Sure, this team is improved but the style is the same as always. The D is healthy and the O-line, QB and RB seem improved so that should lead to more wins. But, I would guess this team will "fade" down the stretch again but in reality it is never a "fade", more of a play style being exploited by better teams.
September 25th, 2021 at 8:28 PM ^
Well I agree with you that playcalling has to get better. Their strength of the offense is the O Line and backs though. Between the tackles can be the focus of the offense but shouldn’t be the whole offense.
September 25th, 2021 at 10:14 PM ^
If Michigan doesn’t win the conference (which they won’t) then I agree. But we are 4-0 and gutted out an ugly win. On to the next one.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
Have never seen a team turtle like that. Claude Lemieux behavior. Whatever, they won but that was hard to watch. Onward to 8 wins!
September 25th, 2021 at 7:02 PM ^
The team that took the field today is not winning 8 games.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:10 PM ^
I should’ve added /s
They stack the box.. run, run, 3 and 7- incomplete. And people here complain about Cade. He isn’t great but WTF. Probably the only team in the country that doesn’t understand the clock enough to go for a 3rd and goal with 5 seconds left. It’s a joke.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:13 PM ^
Stop being a bitch. Now.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:23 PM ^
What are you talking about? How am I “being a bitch”? The play calling sucked today. Maybe it’ll get better. I hope it does. Gaining 14 yards in a quarter, kicking on third down at the opponents 3 with 5 seconds left, and punting at the 44 with a half yard to gain deserves criticism.
Username checks out, sans the brilliance.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:26 PM ^
I wasn't replying to you.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:31 PM ^
Maybe it’s the mobile site. Maybe it’s the whiskey. My fault.
September 25th, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
Not sure we won - I think they just ran out of time
September 25th, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
Should have passed more.
/s
September 25th, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
Woof....crazy how that outside run worked after they repeatedly failed running up the middle.
