      Seems like a no-brainer with his size

      He’s got 4 catches, 4 TDs in the red zone

        Exactly, NarfUte. Should be 8 and 8 or 9 and 9 in my opinion.

      Another head-scratching good question.

      In order to throw to him in the red zone you have to get to the red zone. We haven’t done that very much this season. But I agree with you we should be using him anytime we get down there

      Folks, you forget Whittingham plays not to lose, even though he is losing by 25pts. He’d rather run the ball for no gain on all three downs and put his defense back on the field hoping they can stop CO from scoring and do it all over again running the clock out. Boring ASS football!

      The offense we saw for one series is what we expected all year only for it to go back to the weaknesses of Wilson.

      same reason we haven’t been using Ryan more…cuz…things and stuff.

      Really it’s pointless to point to one position or person because it’s clear we’re in complete meltdown on Offense.

      We don’t have the O designed around anyone, we don’t leverage our players effectively, and we have no identity. Singer and Bernard are playing for all they are worth and the coaches seem to content to use them up and burn them out.

      Why do we throw for 15-20 all the time when we need 5-7? Why do we keep running up the middle into a stacked line when its clear the D is just waiting for it?

      Because the O is a mess. We have our temp OC. We have our Freshman QB. We have a lot of 2-3rd stringers out there…and we have a team full of mercs. Welcome to the new world of CFB.

      That 4th quarter made me a bit bitter. Sorry.

      All he does is catch touchdowns!

      Wasn’t Lohner in on that first drive sack? Pretty sure they were trying to set up a pick play to get him open

      Caleb needs to report his ass to the basketball team immediately.
