Trying to save the timeout, but you would have been way better off just burning it to get organized.
What happened on the last play?
- Thread starter JM4CY
- Start date
I'll be interested to hear some post game questions about it. Taking the TO there isn't ideal but it obviously isn't the worst thing either. Really want to know why it took so long to get the play in. Calling the play might be on Manning but not calling the TO is on CMC.
This is easy. ****** coaching when it mattered from the offensive coordinator who was not remotely ready for the opportunity.
Go back and watch replays of this year and last year‘s team. Count how many times that the coaching staff had to use a timeout to decide what play to call in critical situations. This coaching staff needs to improve their skills in quick decisive play calling. That last play was unbelievably ugly.
Soehner was wide open for a first down and maybe alot
more yac.

He should have thrown it to Hall or Soehner there as they were both coming down the middle of the field.
Would have been a tough throw but would have less risky than chucking it to the ceiling.
EXACTLY. Call a time out and settle things. Had two downs to make 15 yards.
Coaches unprepared. Inexcusable to make Purdy the goat, with EVERYONE not knowing what was going on . Call a time out!!!!!!!!!!
Personally to me, where the drive stumbled was the pass to Allen. Purdy had so much open field in front of him that he should have easily been able to get a first down and get out of bounds. Then there were 2 false starts in a row. That forced them behind the sticks and for Purdy to have to be more risky. Definitely a few what ifs for Purdy today. But it has been a fun year to watch.
Not going to fuss about the kids. It was a tough day at the office, but they didn't quit, and they had a GREAT year! On to the Bowl Game. Let's Get #9!
I think Purdy/team was losing track of the downs, got anxious.. Call a time out, for G's sake. Settle everyone down Coaches gave team NO HELP at games' end.
Tom Manning just really struggled all day, he had had some really good days, today was really bad. These aggressive defenses really cause him problems
Purdy is great and the best QB we’ve ever had. But he also tries to do too much at times. This was one of those times.
I bet no one had 'should have/should have not called a timeout' in both the basketball and football game bingo card.
You can rag on Purdy, but before you do, remember that without him, we would be struggling for winning seasons.
