Terrible PI call.
1. Um, why are you even passing it there?
2. And after the INC (and I agree he should have caught it), why not run it 2x more?
3. The same thing on next possession from inside Oregon 40. On 3rd and 8, you should try something short or medium (or even run the freaking ball) - instead, you try the hardest pass to complete (of course, INC).
Lex, this guy has no clue on how to run an offense in certain down-and-distance situations. Utterly clueless.
P.S. It's remarkable isn't it? Even with no fans to influence the refs, the zebras still screw the Cardinal.
P.P.S. Stanford had a chance in 1H . . . and of course, squandered it. That's what they do under Coach Squander.
Um, he was wide open with room to run. The call worked. Safe pass. It led to a wide open underneath receiver to one of their playmakers. He dropped it. They also had a wide open TD downfield on first drive they missed. Could have had 21 points in first 4 drives. I know you always want to put it on play calling (that seems to apply not just to Shaw). But sometimes it’s on the player. And execution matters.
Nothing wrong with passing second and three. (I mean going against tendencies once in a while is not a bad thing, right?). Wilson catches it he's probably gets it inside the 10. I would have run third and three and hoped I get the first or close. Then go on 4th.
And this is not a “defense” of Shaw. I’m sure there is plenty for you all to criticize. But the second and three call isn’t one of them.
I didn’t see second half. I thought they ran a bit too much first half. And I hated the punt from the 33. Jones looked ok. (Didn’t finish a couple runs and had a chance to break a long one but cut the wrong way) Peak looks better. And OL played well. Would have been nice to see that game with Mills. I think at least, it’s close.
Still throwing too many passes down the sidelines. They did hit Jones on a nice option route. Not sure they ever went back to it. Gotta use middle of field more.
