Coastal - 3:30pm - Discussion

[boonetodd]

Coaching staff is terrible.

[FORJStamp24]

Considering App gained 13 “extra” points on the special teams TD, the FG off the INT right before half, and the converted fake punt…and they still lost to a team that was a big underdog coming into the game. Just a really bad loss

[Seattleapp]

Honest question. What are we doing better this year than last year?

[Saint3333]

Put 8 in the box and force them to throw on us.

Nothing

[Yosefus]

We probably need to reconsider the QB spot if Swann is healthy. He has more zip and if IF he makes good decisions (big if, I’ll grant you), puts us in a better position in must-pass scenarios.

I don't think there QB cost us this game. Defense did, and a dropped ball at the goal line that would have put game away.

[CoachRob]

Put 8 in the box and force them to throw on us.

When we did, we gave up a deep ball for TD, and a PI on the other deep ball where we were beat

[BambooRdApp]

QB threw for 278 and 2 TDs.. JJ was not the problem. We had zero run game. Coastal adjusted their D and we did not adjust our O.

Still too many FCS/D2 guys on the D.
Coaching was bad down the stretch too.

[RankinApp]

The last time App had back to back losing seasons was 1981 and 82.

40+ years.

We're staring down the barrel.

Dubinion was banged up and we lost two OL during the course of the game. Offense moved the ball efficiently all game. Still don’t have the dogs up front to dominate week in and week out. But this game isn’t on the O.

I get what you’re saying, but I understand why DL waited so long to name a starter.

It is obvious that D was not good today.

We had 132 yards rushing.. and JJ was 29 of them on scrambles. No matter what RB or OL is in the game. That is well below average to win a game.
Our offense has to have balance to be successful.

Therefore, as someone else just stated, Division 2 level. They sure looked that way today.

[boonetodd]

That’s where we belong at this point.

[NattyBumppo'sRevenge]

A team that averaged 14 a game scored 45 at our homecoming game.

[Rekdiver]

I have nowords

Valid Point.
Regardless, it's obvious we don't have enough dudes once again this season

[WataugaMan]

Well, do we get two more wins for a bowl game or not?
