Darius Joseph 10 catches for 40 yards-huh? WTF? never seen that in my entire life. Finally, figured out just how bad Rutgers secondary is by more aggressive throws.

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.

I told everyone that the Rutgers secondary would get toasted.

A "winning" coach allows his best (playmaker) player win the game. Throwing one yard swing passes does not allow "the warrior" Gilbert to use his talent and win the game!

A sideways pass for what 2 yards and our receiver gets mauled almost everytime since we can't block for him or just call a run or throw downfield. No brainer.

To throw down the field one needs a QB to have time. Our QB didn't have time that first half and the sideway passes are basically sweeps. Got to try to slow the rush somehow.

Taylor should start - the dinks get two yds each time. The sideways screens have 1 blocker on 10 guys trying to tackle our player

Exactly...AND the guy with the ball doesn't follow the blocker. If you aren't averaging at least 3-4 yards per play...you need a new play.
