That was a non-touching block in the back. He used the Force, I guess.
Re: Colorado game thread - martyup - 10-22-2016
Wow, we stink on offense.
Re: Colorado game thread - washingtonismoney - 10-22-2016
Have we seen Love and McCaffrey in the game at the same time today? Annoying that despite all the preseason rhetoric about this possibility, it's barely happened at all.
Also annoying to me: why McCaffrey seems to pass-block all the time today. He's the team's best receiver and the other guys just aren't, so far, getting separation.
Re: Colorado game thread - CompSci87 - 10-22-2016
From the stands near the play, it looked like he realized it was going to be a penalty and tried to pull back, but couldn't quite. Or maybe you're right that he didn't make contact but the ref threw the flag because it looked like he did. Sigh.
Re: Colorado game thread - washingtonismoney - 10-22-2016
Like I'm not sure why, given what we learned from Notre Dame -- that Irwin and Love are at least competent -- that we've gone back to feed-McCaffrey-all-the-time-no-matter-what offense.

The replay showed very little contact.

Got excited about big Thomas' sack as well, but that didn't last...

With the injuries, have Love and McCaffrey been able to practice any plays together during the week?
Totally agree on getting McCaffrey out on pass patterns.

That's our 3rd and 2 play?
Re: Colorado game thread - CompSci87 - 10-22-2016
Bringing in Chryst to run.... Ugh.

Any boos in the Stanford crowd?
Re: Colorado game thread - Sea Loon - 10-22-2016
So are we less physical and sound at blocking than before, or have other P12 teams just gotten better?
Re: Colorado game thread - washingtonismoney - 10-22-2016
It's hard to see much redeeming about the offensive game plan today. We've known for weeks that simply relying on the offensive line to win their matchups up front has been foolish. So what is the coaching staff doing? More of their Plan A -- ask the offensive line to win. Where's Love? Where's Love at the same time as McCaffrey?
This is pretty atrocious and while it might be a stretch for such mediocre OL play and competent-at-best QB play to produce an explosive offense, it shouldn't be this painful.
Re: Colorado game thread - cardcrimson - 10-22-2016
we are getting shredded.
Re: Colorado game thread - martyup - 10-22-2016
Colorado is using our Plan A
Re: Colorado game thread - Sea Loon - 10-22-2016
It seems that we cannot punish throwing deep, so there is no danger to stacking the box to stop our runs.
Re: Colorado game thread - TreesAndBirds - 10-22-2016
Now lets give the defense a bit of a breather by moving the ball a bit.

Re: Colorado game thread - cardcrimson - 10-22-2016
Did I hear that right? Shaw's brings in Chryst because he needs to develop him as well? Why didn't he try that last year?
