I live in the UK so it was real late when this happened and I was kinda dozing, what in the blue hell was that about :confused:
 
Its not like other teams have not done it before..But he looked awful..He got to the whole and stopped..so now Reggie runs into paul big ol' butt...
 
We put him in as a lead blocker for Bush. Solia kinda hesitated and didn't really hit the hole to open up the lane. It would have been better if we just handed the ball to Solia!
 
Bad idea. He's not used to blocking. He got to the hole, and didn't know what to do. It was ugly.

Better to put a guy there who is used to blocking. Like a tight end or a lineman.
 
it was sad. solia came in on a goal-to-go situation at FB. I got excited thinking he was going to be a battering ram. But then in the replay, it showed Solia stopping at the goal line with his hands up like he just got caught red handed stealing a candy bar, and Bush didn't even follow his block.

It looked like a pseudo counter play and Solia was a decoy.
 
Not gonna lie, got pretty excited when Soliai entered the game at FB. If he would have just hit the line at full speed he would have atleast move the pile the yard we needed :( dont know why he just hesitated there.
 
another horrible decision by sparano and corp, what a joke sparano makes out of us. A fat overweight 400 pound slob at fullback that can barely run and hit the hole, there is no way lousaka polite should have been cut, horrible cut by sparano.
 
Looks like we all had the same reaction to that play, excitement then dissapointment.

I don't know if the cut was horrible as much as the play calling was. We gave Lex the chance to pick up the 1st on 4th down earlier in the game and he did a great job. I don't know why they didn't know back to that in both 4 and goal from the 1 situations. Also Clay wasn't healthy so that could have been a big factor in those situations as well. I think it's showing the worst decision was to cut Allen and start Jones over Clemons.

you honestly think clemons would do better than jones? i hardly doubt that.
 
What a complete fail! He should have launched himself into the line and taken out anybody in his path...I never want to see him back there again!!!

I definitely think Clemons would have done better. He is much better at getting the defense lined up in their correct positions. Smith and Bell were making the calls all the time for him last night because he had no idea what was going on. Say what you want but when players have to start doing other peoples job and then their own it affects the entire defense. Also he took bad angles and fell for the play action fake multiple times last night. Clemons may not have the play making ability does but he also doesn't get burnt nearly as often.
 
I thought it was hilarious. I don't recall them keeping him in the game after that, right? They gave it a shot and it didn't work. Oh well.
