Utah @ Oregon (Saturday 5:45 PM FOX)

[Brophdog88]

We're just young in the secondary and Utah is exploiting it. Booker is a great back with a great O-line. Wilson's running has to be something the Ducks never anticipated, especially with his shoulder injury.

We're obviously going to take a step back for 1-2 years, but we'll still be very good - just not national championship caliber. Growing pains happen to every team in college football.

Wilson is a running QB, have to have anticipated it, or you shouldn't be coaching

This is just getting sad, I might join the Fire DP band wagon

Will firing Pellum and hiring Neal fix anything? Our DBs have played soft for years. We probably need a whole new defensive staff. We've had tons of top secondary talent yet never a top pass D. I don't want Neal anywhere near the reigns. Pellum needs to be fired, yet "Fire Pellum" isn't the whole solution.

Not against Neal, we need to overhaul our Defensive scheme, but pressure on the QB....... We bend and then break.

Blow out in Autzen.....sad

we PUT pressure on the QB tonight...the corners got exposed 1 on 1

Not enough pressure is too simple, we don't have Wilson upset at all, way to relaxed and eating us up. We need a 4-3

Did Marcus really spoil us that much?

Yes!

I don't remember Marcus playing defense

Yes!

I don't remember Marcus playing defense

Yeah but he put up points and put more pressure on opposing offenses.

I think it is pretty clear, Hegarty is a serious downgrade. There is a reason ND let him walk.

Couldn't agree more! Very accurate statement. We have gotten spoiled

[FlDuckFan]

Have we seen Tony James or any of the other RB's?

We have more problems then our defense

Yea, it's probably 41-41 right now with Marcus, or at least within 7. Then when the offense and defense gets tired because they can't keep pace that's when the ducks go for the throat.

Have we seen Tony James or any of the other RB's?

My wife and I were asking that. So far, it's only Freeman with touches.

That's a lame excuse, because part of the responsibility of coaches is to DEVELOPE and PREPARE players, I'm seeing players like Joe Walker and Rodney Hardrick get worse. Maybe Helf's philosophy of getting a bunch of reps during camp is a bad idea, cause it's clear they don't play disciplined football. Maybe they should be like Bama and take less reps but focus on perfection.

We still should be a 9-10 win team we sure as ship are now t playing like it. You dont lose like this at home.

So I guess now we find out who the real fans are

The real fans demand something better than high school coaching. There is not that disparity in talent between these teams, so it is all on the coaches, no question.

Tonight isn't about the coaching (except starting Vernon). The defensive calls haven't been that bad, it's mostly missed assignments and our corners getting killed 1 v 1

[Zyme]

Pick in end zone smh

[stlDUCKfan]

wow
