Blessed is the Meeks, for he shall intercept the ball!

Avoid the Lloyd!  He ruins pass-zas!

It's incredible how many plays he's scrambling around pre-snap and only gets to his assigned spot just before the play starts.

It's a fair point, but the people who made the decision have a lot more data points than we do. 

Having more data points is not necessarily an advantage if the holders of the data points do not have proper algorithms or the nous to understand what those data points mean.  My working life was successful because as an outsider I could identify the incredibly stupid misunderstandings of reality by the powers that be.  Just because Stanford Football is just football doesn't mean that the powers that be there who know more about football than we do are infallible.

Remember NASA and the Challenger disaster?  I do.

I would buy that possibility if there was a divergence between what we saw on the field and the decisions by the coaches.  But the hypothesis that Chryst is better than Burns rests on the dual assumptions that the coaches are myopic on the additional data they have AND that what we are seeing on the field is not representative of what Chryst can do.

Irwin would have scored on that if he wasn't held.

Burkett was pwned.  We really miss SHuler.

Explain to me again why Burns is the answer.

Re: Stanford - UDFG game thread - washingtonismoney - 10-15-2016

The decline and fall of the OL since the first three games is incomprehensible to me.

Again, no one is claiming Burns is great, merely that Chryst doesn't look terribly good.

No one ran a route less than five or six yards down the field. I felt a sack coming, and the fumble obviously may wind up being the biggest play of the game (hoping the D can come up with a stop).

Re: Stanford - UDFG game thread - ThePassionOfTheChryst - 10-15-2016

Yep, fumble.

How was that Burns' fault?  Our center was utterly dominated.

We are still in this.  We just need to finish a drive or two.

Re: Stanford - UDFG game thread - washingtonismoney - 10-15-2016

Barton had a really nice tackle there. He looks good when he gets to go forward and tackle -- sort of the Hoffpauir of ILB.

Re: Stanford - UDFG game thread - BostonCard - 10-15-2016

Wow, Zaire is awful.  That was nice to see.

The sack is clearly not Burns fault. The requisite level of pocket-awareness to avoid the fumble would be on Burns.
