I might be riding solo here, but Jones should be this team’s QB. Whether there’s injuries or not, he’s playing better than Tyrie. If Speir wants to remotely keep the game interesting, play the hot QB. And I don’t mean after the first quarter, create some consistency which in turn creates confidence.

Regarding the game - Tyrie looks gun shy. Not really sure why he is out there if he is still hurt. Hopefully he is actually ok and we can get out of this offensive funk. On D - we have at least tackled a little better. But we can't give their guy all day to throw the ball. If he can go through 2 or 3 reads eventually he will find a RB open for a big gain time and time again (or he will throw a perfect ball for a TD like he did on the long pass). We might as well sell-out and try to get some penetration and pressure. By playing Tyrie hurt, it tells me that the OC has no confidence in the backups. Again, Coach Speir blowing smoke during preseason about the QB position having depth this season. "Hey coach, how do you feel about your backups behind Tyrie Adams" "They are the worst QBs I have ever seen in my life. Lets hope that Tyrie never goes down otherwise we are screwed" That just doesn't seem to flow as well as in your words "blowing smoke". As I said on the ACS board, of course you are not going to have confidence in your backup QB in the main guy goes down. You have designed the offense around him, he has 3 years of experience, Will Jones doesn't have any experience. However that doesn't mean he can't do the job.

UTC has a good to very good defense. If we can't put pressure on them by getting outside and can't pass protect- and we can't seem to throw any slants or other quick passes, doesn't matter who is playing QB.
This game should seriously be no worse than 10-10 if the offense doesn't give them 9 points and fumble at the 1.

In his seven season’s, Speir’s never fielded a decent defense. Most have been bad to very bad. That is on the coaches. Time to find a new HC.

1st down on 1 yd line. Please tell me why a QB sneak not called with QB under center? OL averages 6"5" 320 lbs., QB 6'4" 220. Let him run the ball 4 consecutive times if necessary. Poor, poor play calling. Can't score from 1, don't deserve to win.

I mean how many times in a season can a team fumble on the one yard line? Twice last week once this week. If the offense was playing half as good as they could we would win this game but again the three phases are not on the same page and we are headed for another loss. How many games and losses will it take before the Mark and other coach loving fans admit that they suck as coaches?

Pretty sure Speir told Will Jones, fumble on the 1 yard line it will really piss off catamoutalum04.
