To be fair wetjen fell downGee, I wonder why the Iowa State DB jumped that route for an easy INT?
The DB was still jumping the route prior to the slip.
Oh I agree, but it's likely not a pick if he doesn't fall. Gotta take a shot or 3 to keep the dbs from immediately planting their feet and driving on any break.
The people dumb enough to still have doubts also like to register their pets as voters. (google it)
Not every thought that crops up in that skull needs to be published for the world.
Because the receiver slipped on his cut. Are you even watching the game?Gee, I wonder why the Iowa State DB jumped that route for an easy INT?
lol Iowa is lucky to take three deep shots the whole year let alone in in one game but very true thats how you keep a db honest thinking about passes
Sorry about the game.
At this point, I think most of us are pretty indifferent to losing this type of game. What is most unpalatable is the fact Kirk has been allowed to do this for multiple years.
I hear what you’re saying…and this is after watching one of the most modern versions of offense we’ve ever had under KF. The RPO’s are a nice wrinkle…at least we’re not just running wide zone EVERY running play.
A Ferentz offense is the old guy going 3 mph under the speed limit. Being stuck behind him would indicate some sort of potential but I don't see it. The best drive of the game took nearly 9 minutes and sputtered out for a fg. The camera work wouldn't let me see if anyone was actually running a route beyond 5 yards or not but I'm going to guess for the majority of the game the answer was no.
The playbook is the size of a Bazooka Joe comic and on the cover it says "Job 1 is Job Security"
Once again a functional offense is the only thing stopping this team. Defense appears to be plug and play at this point.
He got stuck in a time loop of being an NFL coach circa 1999-2000. It's brutal.
To be fair it was the 10th time MG threw a horizontal out.
True but an incompletion there is the difference in the game. It's also not on MG to not call exclusively short routes.
Those types games in the NFL are rare these days. This is just Kirk refusing to evolve.
Phil did his job. We contained ISU's offense for the most part. You hold a team to 1 TD, you should win most games. He can coach.
Other than the buyout being too large, Kirk should not get a free pass just because he had the program rolling in the 2000s.
Northwestern was just as poor at moving the ball as Iowa. I'd prefer not to watch more of the same.
I agree, it was a pick regardless of Wetjen slipping…
Funny how many dunnies took decades to figure this out.
I’d replace ‘moving the ball’ with ‘conservative’, but yeah you’re spot on. Call me paranoid, but I really don’t like seeing him cozying up to KF (kid and all) of late… I don’t give a rat’s @SS if he won his lawsuit, hard pass for me…
