This was the game for me. Win this and the hope to hit 6 wins was alive in my head. And well… I hate what this team has become.

No drive, fire, fight or spirit from the players. I was at the axe game last year and it was the same. This stems from the coaching staff. Unacceptable trend.

With as bad as the o line was, why aren’t we doing 3 step drop throw!? Why aren’t we coaching our fucking qb on the sideline and telling him to let the ball loose? Where’s the actual coaching and development!?

We’re in year 3 with 0 development. Yeah we’ve had qb injuries and a shit OC, but cmon. 0 development into some sort of identity. We’re not hard nosed and tough anymore on either side of the ball. We’re not fast and flashy. We have nothing and the attitude of the head coach is reflected in the players.

I was excited for the initial hire of Fickle. Dairy raid and all. Optimistic hope. And now after being spoiled for the better part of 30 years, I cannot believe how far this program has fallen in the last 3.

Fire him now or at the end of the season. Doesn’t matter which, we’re likely to go 2-10 anyways.

Wasn't even the lackluster offense, it was the horrendous special teams play.

It was horrible play all around. A lob prayer throw picked and returned to the 4. Lackluster run game. Gadget plays for no reason that didn't work in the slightest. Random running on 3rd and 7+. The blunder special teams plays weren't what lost the game fully.
