Loss To Hogs Tough To Watch
This is the first time in 10 years that I've not been at Sanford Stadium working and pulling for the 'Dogs. Had to sit in front of the TV alone to watch this loss. Charted the plays for most of the game. I'll have a breakdown on the offensive play-calls tomorrow. Coach Bobo is getting killed right now, but he's just the scapegoat. Got to blame someone, right? Jim Donnan told me on my show today that "Play-calling is way overrated." It's about "players executing."
I was really disappointed with the performance of the RBs in this one. The O-Line opened up some nice running lanes for the first time this season, but Ealey and Carlton Thomas appeared to get the minimum amount of yards each time. If there was a hole that allowed for 5 yards, that's what they got. Nothing more. No yards after contact. No extra yards. No big runs. We look ordinary at RB. Sure hope that kid at Carver Columbus (Crowell) is coming our way, because we desperately need his talents in 2011.
Ealey appeared to blow his protection assignment, which resulted in Murray getting killed on his blindside and sacked on 3rd & 4 in the final drive. He's giving us very little right now. That's disappointing. Caleb watched with a tender ankle. That's disappointing too. Thought these 2 were going to provide a 1-2 punch at RB that few other teams could match. Instead we are barely average.
