Bronco's prevent D against a terrible QB
almost gave me a stroke last night.
Rushing two on the end, and dropping 9, to have the QB run for 15 yards up the middle? I think Bronco thought Dalton was Vince Young. We almost lost the game last night because of Bronco's ultra-conservative predictable calls on defense. Un-freaking-believable. I'll bet Bronco walks away from the game patting himself on the back about not giving up big plays, and holding them in the end. Game should have never been that close. |

As a side note, we are the only undefeated team in the conference. |

As long as I'm bashing coaching, we've had three 3rd down and 1 or 2s the past 2 weeks where we've thrown deep balls only to punt or kick on 4th. This is baffling to me, especially when we went something like 76 of 78 on 3rd downs last night. Perhaps these plays pull back the safeties so we can go 76 of 78, but I'd like to see some better playcalling when we need to sustain a drive. Aside from those 2 things, well coached game, well executed game. The offense was solid, the defense was spectacular. David Nixon blowing up that 4th and inches was the highlight of the season. 5-0 baby! Bring on the Pokes!

That seems to be irrelevant to some. They want better wins.

The mantra just a couple of years ago was "all that matters are wins and losses". Obviously, that claim was patently false.
All that matters are wins with sufficient style points. |

Nice that he owned up to it and changed tactics the next series.

I hope A&M fans weren't watching this game, or at least A&M fans who post on Texags. My credibility was probably destroyed last night.

They did bring pressure on the last possession.
We're going to be susceptible to that play where we drop 7 and the QB takes off running. I predict Utah's QB has a big rushing day against us. We gave them a few short fields and they only scored 22 on us. We came up big when we needed to. I really hope I'm not becoming a homer, but I don't get some of the criticism against the coaching staff this season. We're 7-2 and generally playing as good as we can, IMO. |
