Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers vs. Temple

[RutCorRx]

God. This program. When will we ever be fun to watch?

 

[RUOtBOtOR]

What a joke

 

[RUfanSinceAnderson]

Two score game

Cold take

 

[zappaa]

Why are we selling out

So are they but we can’t throw it

 

[kupuna133]

Amazing you attack the middle of the field. Where the blitz comes from and you score. Simple game. But our wonder boy runs 30 yard go routes outside the hashes.

 

[GORU2014]

Embarrassing. Let him throw it all the way back across the field and then miss a tackle

 

[CodyRU]

Is it too much to ask to just have a mediocre football program?

 

[koleszar]

We need to hire the Temple. OC. Motion constantly, misdirection almost every play. He uses the entire field. Worse players and he’s out coaching our almost million dollar OC

 

[DHajekRC84]

No, but you’re justifying it by saying we aren’t going to be able to compete with the big boys playing this style.

They’re on pace to win right now. Why are you so salty?

It’s crazy man. Again, we didn’t hire Schiano for a high flying offense. This is exactly what we knew the rebuild would be like.

If the team is 3-0 the team is 3-0. I don’t care how it happens.

Seriously you might as well stop watching the games because this is what it’s going to be for a bit.

Then he hired the wrong offensive coordinator. Not fitting.

 

[RutHut_rivals]

 

[RU Husky]

Our DBs are not good

 

[RUfromNJ]

Not our best today

 

[MTOleBlue]

Offense, ESPECIALLY THE PLAY CALLING, is horrendous. How is it possible that they keep trying to run it up the middle which has not worked all game? No creativity, no winning at the line. And now the defense is falling apart too!

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

1st play of that drive Temple WR could have called a fair catch on Warner's pass. Don't know how we didn't get to the ball.

 

[scarknight90]

 

[Jtung230]

I blame this on the guy who started the thread why the spread is only 17.5.

 

[speclk19]

EJ Warner sees the field better than Simon. It's not close.

 

[rucoe89]

Temple may be more of a Big Ten team than we are at this time

 

[biazza38]

So are they but we can’t throw it

The TE was wide open on the previous play.
Show blitz and drop guys back and you’ll get deflections

 

[RobotHunter]

Nice tackle AZ Young!!

 

[FIJI'83]

EJ is not a phenom, but in our QB room he would be viewed as the Second Coming.

 

[Mikemarc]

How does everyone SUCK? Coaching.

 

[IL Lusciato]

God. This program. When will we ever be fun to watch?

Never again.

Wish we were in the AAC, bc im not sure we will ever win a Big Ten home game ever again.

 

[DHajekRC84]

We've all seen this many times before fellas. Win or not.

 

[Rokodesh]

I’ll trade all of our quarterbacks for Warner.

Warner would throw for 11 yards per game in this offense. The problem is not the players. How do people still not get it?

 

[TM94goRU]

Well there goes our 2 score lead! On many fronts, this effort ( lack there of) is inexcusable!

 

[Extra Point_rivals157299]

omg that Temple TD pass. RU only up by 2.

 

[kt124]

open tryout for rutgers QB?

 

[jkernpop]

Middle of the field on D is a problem

 

[Captain Hogleg]

Will we ever throw to a TE? It’s the only pass Simon could make

 

[RU848789]

Young has to make that tackle...and the roughing on the KO was inexcusable

 

[JoeRU0304]

...if they don't care, why should we? We deserve to lose this game.

Joe P.

 

[RobotHunter]

this QB has so much arc on his passes and we don't even come close to stopping them.

 

[SAE96]

Regardless of the outcome, it’s a pathetic performance against a significantly less talented team.

 

[GORU2014]

EJ Warner sees the field better than Simon. It's not close.

Might as well grab him through the portal since we’re not even going to use Wimsatt to give the illusion of an RPO

 

[miketd1]

Why would you believe half of what he says? Believe what your eyes show you.

I wanted to believe.

Good thing I’m less emotional with my investments lol

 

[The RUT]

Then he hired the wrong offensive coordinator. Not fitting.

He’s never going to have a high powered offense though.

We have a patched together OLine and a bunch of unproven RBs (IMO) and young QBs who aren’t there yet.

I said at the beginning of the year this season was about growth and progression. Some of you thought we’d be further along I guess.

The rebuild is right on track IMO. But yes yes, instant gratification!

 

[CodyRU]

Ridiculous. We deserve to lose this game. Temple has a qb with a pop Warner arm, they are missing lineman and running backs and we are scared to go for 4th and a yard to open up the game

On the plus side, if we do lose my Saturdays will be far more productive the rest of the fall. Cause i sure as hell am not going to waste any more on this pathetic program

 

[rucoe89]

Is the Temple OC available for hire?

 

[SantaFeScarlet]

I got fired up all week for THIS?!?!?!?!?
