Johnson had 2 drops that I remember. Both weren’t good passes, both should’ve been caught. He is still the biggest mismatch on the field. It’s not even really close either.

Which is why I was hoping to see him work the seams. Kind of ala Ladarius GreenQuote:

I listened to the Rage and the guy doing the highlight recap butcher the name Wooldridge. How you get Wilridge from Wooldridge is beyond me.Quote:

My question is…..in post-game retrospect…how many point did we leave on the field? How many points did we give away? My guess? We should’ve won 48-10
Disagree. We had 17 runs of 5 yards or more on 34 carries, so 50%. We ran the ball consistently well yesterday. A 44% completion percentage with as many attempts as we had will stall a lot of drives. Like Rainman I'm thinking this had more to do with the situation and just testing options than an actual gameplan we would utilize in a competitive game.Quote:

Which is the most concerning: the unpleasant music often kills the very enthusiasm the music is supposed to stimulate.Quote:

Or perhaps it's just not doing anything positive. We used to have the loudest crowds in college sports. I wonder if the acoustic abuse from the PA system has crushed that?
And from there, I wonder if the suppressed crowd enthusiasm has hurt attendance...
One thing that stands out when I look at stats. 4-14 in third down efficiency. We must do a lot better than thiss.
They did cut it back a notch in the dome, so maybe one of the MH gang will address this. Or maybe they play it that loud so it’s just noise, where the lyrics aren’t discernible.Quote:

Bad fumbles need to be cleaned up. Props to BW chasing that defender down on the fumble return. We ended up recovering a fumble after. So they didn’t score.
I hope the slant route gets put into the offense next week.
I thought Ben made some beautiful throws last night but mostly uncontested. He really struggled u fer pressure. OL struggled to help him. He’s just not quick to sense pressure seems like or just doesn’t have quick enough feet to escape. Sacks, hurries and a really ugly interception were result. But, given time his passes looked solid.
Our fumble in their red zone really hurt. Thought we were going up 28-3. But NOooo.Quote:

Also, will the big guy 79 Maillho (sp?) see the field. Hurt last year. On 2 deep earlier but I didn’t see him go in. He looks leaner and more into game on sidelines. Love his size. Vision not as good as in past. If he played, any comments for anyone? Thanks.
Well, we left a TD off the board early with a terrible under-thrown deep ball. A TD with the fumble. A TD with Johnson’s drop.Quote:

That was scary last night. Some nurses in our area were commenting on thinks being done to young man. Hate to see that. Hopefully all precautionary. Prayers for him and family.
Very scary. Looks like they were attaching electrodes to him.
Also, it looked like the ambulance stopped for a few minutes before it got to Cajundome Blvd.
20 K would look better in the renovated stadium than you think. Capacity is bein reducedQuote:
