Re: Game Three: EMU
There is no reason that Olson doesn’t take every snap the rest of year.
Re: Game Three: EMU
Offense is showing signs of life and the tackling got better in the 2nd half. Still a long way to go but I do see signs of improvement week over week and I like what we have at the QB position.

Re: Game Three: EMU
Just wondering why, down 2-3 scores in the 4th, we ran the ball so much and we scored, but burned a lock of clock. Just had no time to comeback
Again, agree with comments on Olson. Kid is a player

Re: Game Three: EMU
Olson is a talent and the O line has really improved but the team and coaches make far too many mistakes--dropped passes, fumbles, penalties, stupid calls (block punt), missed tackles, blown coverages, to say they have improved.

We win in a couple weeks: beat UConn.

Re: Game Three: EMU
Slow starts are killing this team. Tough to always play from behind. Really like what I’m seeing out of Olson though.

Re: Game Three: EMU
Are you trying to jinx the team--don't they have enough problems already! This team could be so beat up by the time we get to the UConn game they are playing one of the tight ends at QB...ZooMass84 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 18, 2021 7:28 pmWe win in a couple weeks: beat UConn.

Re: Game Three: EMU
The team is showing signs of life and does appear to have young talent which bodes well for the future. Unfortunately they need to be ready to go from the start of games as coming from behind doesn’t lead to winning games consistently.
Not thrilled with the result today but I did see some good things again this week. Let’s hope they get healthy and we have a full complement of players from which to assess the progress of this team.

Re: Game Three: EMU
With slow starts being a problem as mentioned above, not sure why deferring to start the game was a great idea. Defense giving up a score on the first drive set a bad tone right away. Seems we might have a slightly better chance of scoring on offense than stopping someone on defense.

Re: Game Three: EMU
When's the last time we outgained the other team?? Slow start, guys wide open when we play zone, and just plays where we kill ourselves is still plaguing thos team.. clean those up and we have a chance in a few.
Re: Game Three: EMU
Shot ourselves in the foot several times, but that is hallmark of teams with very little experience. I am confident of 3 to 4 wins this season and then onward and upward from there.
Re: Game Three: EMU
Gotta say, the OLine, which really struggled last season, has looked MUCH better this year. We ran the ball pretty well yesterday, and Brady had time to make throws. How many sacks we give up, 1?
Have to give that group some credit, look to be improving each week

Re: Game Three: EMU
Frustrating game with the self inflicted drops, turnovers and porous D but the team is getting better. Talked to some players and families after the game. They really seem to like Bell and feel they are heading in a good direction. Injuries and youth are two areas that really hurt but time will improve both. I am not happy at all but I am hopeful.
Re: Game Three: EMU
Have to get the D fixed. Even with the stupid mistakes we've scored 28 in each of the last 2 games. Brady looks like an FBS QB and there's talent at the skill positions. Our secondary, which was supposed to be one of our strengths, has been mediocre at best.rayers wrote: ↑Sun Sep 19, 2021 8:00 am Frustrating game with the self inflicted drops, turnovers and porous D but the team is getting better.
