Remember at the beginning of the season when we were so disciplined?
What happened to that? We’ve gotten a lot better since the beginning of the season, but we’re not as disciplined as we were early.

and

the fake punt didn’t hurt us cuz they would have scored on that

he doesn't throw accurately ever
and he is inconsistant with his judgements on who to throw to. Drew Olsen actually didn’t throw the ball accurately to receivers, but he picked the right throws to make, and he had receivers who could catch anything he put near them. so, even if the threw high or low, he didn’t throw high or low into double coverage.

question for all you
i kind of want to see what forcier can do, but what good will that do us this season. Chow has convinced CRN not to bench Craft thus far, so who knows if he will bench him this season. At least by having Craft in the game hes getting reps in. But my question is, who are we going to play next year at QB? Can’t imagine Brehaut starting over Forcier or Craft, simply because he won’t have enough time to absorb the play bok.

by trainwreck84 on Oct 25, 2008 3:50 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
It may be that Forcier isn't as good as Craft in the coaches' eyes
And, until we have a solid O line, no QB will look good.
So, I think the coaches will decide whether to risk Brehaut after they have decided whether there is ANY QB who can have success behind the o line.

The ball was on the 8 with 2 minutes to go and Tedford ran it the first play. I definitely bleed Blue and Gold, a darker blue and a deeper gold, but I don’t think that was running up the score. Kneeling it might have been seen as disrespectful and with Brian Price on the field that would have been unwarranted disrespect.

I agree this one is on KD
While I agree this one is on KD (just ask yourself how many of the non-freshmen would play for any other Pac 10 school, save WSU), I must admit that after 32 excruciating quarters watching Craft, I have had it with him. If even half of the potential interceptions had been made and added to the ones he has thrown, we would be in record territory. He will NEVER lead us anywhere but the rare last minute victories over sub 500 teams. It is time to give Forcier the ball and let him learn on the job. It is obviousl that Craft is no better now than two months ago…
