I can't understand why Gaines is put in the formation to pick up the blitzing backer and has Oh-lays the backer time and time again.

Team is void of talent and football IQ. Need to start recruiting kids smart enough to learn quickly.

Put Line in for Gaines when you are going to need blocking. I thought Line could line up anywhere. Gaines is so slow to make reads-so slow he shouldn't be used for blocking.

Agreed. Line's also having a good day carrying the ball.

Never mind, Blacklist is probably a good choice.

After watching Gaines closely this game, I can now understand why he is/was not getting playing time commensurate with his hyped ability. He is simply clueless when asked to block.

Deion Sanders Jr. has been an unmitigated disaster since the moment he first stepped on the field for us. I cannot believe Morris hasn't shown him the door yet. Is it a publicity thing?

Big thanks to Deion Sanders Jr. for forcing our defense to stay on the field for the first 7 minutes of the half. Way to go, idiot.

That wasn't a td, but amazingly espn had no shot straight down the goal line so it wasn't overturned.
