Gameday Thread: Montana VS NAU

[cclarkblues]

These refs suck at spotting the ball

No, I prefer to think they suck at ALL aspects of their job...

 

[GrizLA]

Griz did pretty well for having no chance to win this game.

Chances improved quite a bit when Cookus got the boot.

Well. Montana was equally hurt by the loss of Jensen...

 

[IdaGriz01]

Game ball to the defense!

It was ugly, frustrating and nail biting at the end.

We got the win god damn it and that's all that matters!

Bingo!

 

[dayday]

A win is a win is a win.

101 yards rushing for Simis. He was a warrior out there.

 

[jodcon]

WR beats backup QB...like a man bites dog story?

 

[grizeyes]

Give me half dozen Simis’ and a few JLM’s and we win lots of games!
MVP’s!

Not sure what that has to do with the original post.

I like the play calling. They are working with what they have. What would you geniuses do different?

Option. Shuffle pass. Quick slants.

Shuffle pass?

Maybe debate the legitimacy of the play - not he spelling?

I was. I like the play when you have a QB than execute it. It isn't an easy play to execute for a QB that doesn't have the reps running it. Too risky. Quick slants you need accuracy too. That would be asking a lot of a guy who hasn't played QB all year.

I liked that we ran the ball, especially with how our D was playing. We just weren't going to get much of a passing game going today.

I love Simis - so glad he stayed on the team after moved from QB. Not sure I'm understanding the current backup QB strategy, but I know it's tough when your first 2 have gone down.

Lost every conceivable stat. Yet still won. Gritty, fought until the end, that’s the Griz I know.

 

[Fahque]

Could’ve swore that we had 8 sacks

Hard to do when no one knows what a "shuffle pass" is.

Hard to type sometimes when your Dad has Alzheimer’s and you text your sister many days about his shuffling. Autopopulate on phone. But whatever makes you feel better bud.

Fair enough. Too vanilla for me. Worked obviously - so good for the team.

Not sure I care either way pal. And sorry about your dad.
