Rehashing what's already been said, for the most part.
Total coaching clusterfuck, on both sides of the ball:
1. If you can't see that Thorne doesn't perform well in games, and especially under pressure, you need your head examined. Are any of the back ups better? Who knows, but what's clear is that Thorne has become a detriment to the offense.
2. Whoever you put out there, you have to have the awareness to put the players in the best position to succeed. If the D is bringing LB's every single play, you need to get the ball out the QB's hands in short order. Everyone on this board can give you 5-6 ways to do that. Apparently, those ways escaped you.
3. If the opposing QB is 36 for 36 in the first quarter, you may want to consider NOT rushing 3 down linemen and having them crash down inside every single play. And you may want to consider making that adjustment BEFORE halftime.
I'm well aware that as fans, we always feel like we could call better games than the guys getting paid millions to do it. But Saturday, a kindergartener with a fist full of Crayolas could have drawn up a better game plan than that shit. Saturday was disturbing on a lot of levels. It's obvious that Thorne is not the answer. But that stinking turd that was rolled out there Saturday sits squarely in the lap of Hugh Freeze and his staff. Doesn't matter who he puts out there if that's the best you can do.
