Well they have looked pretty good offensively but the opponents haven't been the best, but then outside of Notre Dame ours aren't strongest either. To win I think we will need to score more than 24 points, but then I want us to hit the over. 9/28/2023 12:39:46 PM |

On that INT it looked like LeSane kinda gave up on a semi catch able ball. But from the angle maybe it was way over his head. Very odd. Bad turn of events. Looked like it could be 17-0. Now 10-7 9/29/2023 9:11:30 PM |

Armstrong/this offense just isn't good
Was Rosner not a defenseless receiver when he was laid out? 9/29/2023 9:27:55 PM |
dmspack oh we back 25532 Posts user info edit post |
^defender didn’t hit Rozner with crown of his helmet.
Armstrong ain’t great. But this OL is a disaster. 9/29/2023 9:29:08 PM |

That hit/ejection had nothing to do with being defenseless. You don't need to hit a defenseless player to be called for targeting. He led with the crown of the helmet and hit the other guy in the head. That's targeting by rule.
Also yes the guy who hit Rozner the second time probably should have been called for targeting, for the same reason. Top of his helmet hit the bottom (facemask?) on Rozner and made his neck turn to rubber.

On the replay I thought the UL player led with his shoulder. I didn’t see him lead with crown of the helmet. Brown led with the crown of the helmet but I truly don’t know, as fast as football plays happen, what he should’ve done differently. I understand that by rule Brown’s was targeting. But i don’t like the rule. 9/29/2023 9:35:22 PM |

1st down was an overthrow on a well defended Timmons on the sideline. 2nd down was a kinda busted play and we threw it away. 3rd down was a low percentage deep ball to KC on the sideline. Felt like 2 very low percentage plays and then i don’t even know what we were trying for on 2nd down. Just a weird sequence of play calling.

Say what you want about our line but even when Armstrong has time he just ends up running for a loss or 2 yards

Armstrong just has no awareness. He doesn’t step up in the pocket to avoid pressure. He either tucks and runs or throws it to his first option no matter if he’s open.

Armstrong sucks so bad. Anae sucks worse. Why the fuck did we decide to bring that garbage tandem in?? This will be a completely lost season, we should’ve rode with MJM. I can’t wait for us to go out of our way to not play him, totally blow the season, and then he transfers 9/29/2023 10:30:02 PM |
dmspack oh we back 25532 Posts user info edit post |
Putting Morris behind this OL seems kinda dangerous and asking for an injury. He’s mobile but not built to take hits like Armstrong. But I’m not really defending the decision making that led to this.
As a fan the most infuriating part is how totally boring we are. We aren’t fun. We aren’t interesting. No body would be eager to tune into see us play. 9/29/2023 10:39:38 PM |

Robert Anae's coaching 'highlights':
Quote : | "A line of quarterbacks went on to play in the NFL after working in Anae’s offenses -- Bryce Perkins (Rams), and Taysom Hill (Saints) are currently on NFL rosters, while Kurt Benkert, Max Hall and John Beck both had tenures in the league." |

At this point in his career, Pennix just sucks right? What happened to Vereen? What happened to Toudle?
^ I think most people agree that Anae is a fine coach. He turned Cuse offense around last year. UVa put up crazy numbers in 2021. I think we’ve got major personnel issues. I also kinda sorta wonder how much DD has his finger on the scale of the O…like…does our O look substantially different than it did under Beck? Or under the co-coordinators before that? I feel like (totally without any facts to back it up) Doeren might not be fully letting his OCs loose. Maybe. Idk.

The o line isn’t the problem man. We ran three straight designed QB runs in the redzone tonight. The play calling with Anae is asscheeks
The most confusing thing about tonight was that one drive after halftime where we had back to back deep completions. The drive ended with Armstrong throwing a terrible int in the end zone (big surprise) but we completely gave up on the deep passing game after that

That was a pathetic offensive game. So bad to watch. Armstrong is bad, receivers are bad, online is awful. Feel bad for the Defense for the 2nd year in a row, no offense to help then out. Wilson is the only thing exciting to watch. 9/29/2023 11:24:56 PM |

Armstrong continued to throw deep the whole time, ignoring guys in the short and mid range who were running free. He is like a cross between Marcus Stone and Harrison Beck and hooboy that is not good.]9/29/2023 11:26:58 PM |

Idk how you can think this. Armstrong has very little time to do anything. OL, in addition to poor pass protection, creates no holes for RBs. And also had multiple penalties tonight. The entire offense is broken right now. There’s no part of it that looks good. But the offensive line is pretty horrible.
Armstrong is our best running threat (not really meant as a compliment to Armstrong), I don’t think calling designed runs for him is anywhere near the biggest issue

There are no brights spots in our offense except maybe young potential talents and one got hurt tonight. Maybe Belton has played well. McMahon was out most experienced lineman right? And I think he was out again tonight.
Also the neutral twitter opinion (filtered though nc state fans I guess) seems to say the targeting was at minimum wrong by spirit of the law.
But the defense was great tonight, I'm going to miss Payton Wilson and be sad we likely wasted his contributions.

Well NC State fans on Twitter are wrong. That's exactly the type of hit the targeting rule was put in place for. Lowered his head, led with the crown and made contact with the other guys head. Super obvious and super easy to call. Yeah it sucks, but it was right. There are some targeting calls i don't agree with, but that one definitely wasn't one of them9/30/2023 11:22:06 AM |
