I thought the same thing live, but the dude it hauling a$$ on the punt return. Making guys miss.... It's hard to check that there's 2 seconds left on the clock and go out of bounds.

On the flip side.... He runs out on purpose, but the clock hit ZERO. Then fans complain too
Eh...there really were supposed to be 2-3 seconds left. Sure the clock operator would make an oopsie and let it go to 0, but if the ******* cheating bastard refs would do their job they'd put time back on the clock

Don't let the punt return discussion distract from the TERRIBLE 3rd down throw by Mark.

You HAVE to make that pass. Every poster on this board can hit that pass.

Realistically maybe 7-8% of us complete that. Try shooting a 3 in a pick up game instead of an empty gym.

Were the d backs called dough boys a couple of years ago? Our linebackers and secondary look like they are running in play dough

Second half suggestion for Lester:

1st and 10
wildcat with Moulton
2nd and 5
wildcat with Wetjet
3rd and 3
wildcat with Gronowski (I'm aware that doesn't make sense)
4 and 1
wildcat with Dakin (aka fake punt that results in a first down at the 49 yard line)

Next, on first down of the second series have Gronowski punt and pin them inside their 20 ... then have the team lawyer declare victory by virtue of a little known rule that only applies to hall of fame coaches and walk off the field with every Hawkeye flipping off the Rutgers crowd as they walk into the tunnel.

Now add in the return yardage. I'll wait...
