2 and out..then a penalty on the punt.

Ya, I don't know why we never learn the first few plays are critical to set the tone for the game.  We start GC's with an IP, or a Schoen finger whiff... then we lose.

Just watched the first defensive series and Thomas is getting zero push in tactics getting pushed backwards !!

ref is strutting his stuff...then throws the flag. 

not a great start for the punters - is it really windy?

19 kms SW winds

Nice to see Shoen back. Let's hope the knee holds up.

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Yikes. Protection is terrible in front of Zach right now.

[TecnoGenius]

See now the punters are even with penalties

LOL.  That will help even out the bad mojo.

nobody open i guess on first down

trenches is going to do us in...oline just can't stop their DL

[barbk]

Nice protection on O line LOL

[Go_Big_D]

as the O Line goes so do the bombers and doesnt look good so far

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Gotta move the launch pad for Zach next drive. It's either got to be out on one and a half or he's gotta end up in different places. No time.

Yikes. Protection is terrible in front of Zach right now.

We simply cannot get in 2nd & long.  We must find ways to get 4-6 on 1st or we won't move the ball.

Did you see how they were loading up the box?

And so far AJ is miles better than Brady... who's earning double the other guy again?

[TecnoGenius]

Nice to see Shoen back. Let's hope the knee holds up.

He already looked like he was dying after his first catch/tackle... then again, he ALWAYS does that.  He's like Oullette... looks dead after every play.  Are they faking or are their bodies in horrible pain constantly?

i didn't look to see if the FB was in for protection but they have to do someting to get the offense going.  roll out is worth a shot

[Sway]

Oline is out matched

Need to play action and roll Zach to his left
