That was a two TD game late in the third quarter with NIU having all the momentum, and Da'Ron is running open for possibly a TD and he throws it behind him and it gets picked. How many times has he missed open WRs for TDs this year? I've seriously lost count. Why, exactly Carey chose today to ride it out with him is something I would love to hear an explanation for. The ONLY thing i can think of is with how big of a hole NIU dug itself, bringing in the running QB wouldn't make a lot of sense. The only problem with that is Hare can neither run or throw.
For NIU to get out physicaled and outrushed on their own home field and get their ass handed to them is completely humbling.
....have to either play Maddie or hope McIntosh is healthy, put them in there, and run the offense how it's supposed to be run. If Maddie can't pass, I don't care. Hare can't run or pass. And figure out whatever the hell was going on on defense today.
Are you at practice every day? Because that may provide the answer to some of your questions.
Here's the deal, you read all these posts, o-line sucks, runningbacks have limitations, defense doesn't step up, no field goal kicker, lack of intensity, poor play-calling, or to quote you:
It was almost comical to watch Logan lose contain like 5+ times today and turn Rawls lose., and on and on.
Yet, you pin everything on Drew Hare.
I'm neither for or against McIntosh, Maddie or even Hare, but what I don't get is that since day one you've been pushing Maddie to the extent of now insulting and berating Hare. You actually think Hare isn't out there trying to complete passes? Maybe he does things better in practice, or the others don't do any better during practice, so the staff decided on Hare.
Early on, the majority of people thought Carey should pick a QB and stick with him knowing there would be good times and bad. Everything would be so different if only they'd picked your guy.
Yes, it was a two-TD game late in the third, so if Hare completed that one pass to Brown and it resulted in a touchdown that would have continued NIU's momentum, you know for a fact that suddenly the defense would stop Rawls and we'd go on to tie the game and then win it? Momentum couldn't possible switch in the fourth quarter?
Realize you stopped keeping count of how many times Hare missed open TEs and WRs, but did you keep count of our opponent's QBs doing the same -- or were those occasions when our defense was just playing better? Or how many times McIntosh or Maddie did the same?
I would love to hear an explanation of why you insist life would be so much better without Hare at QB? Since you brought it up, how exactly is the offense "supposed to be run?" Come up with a series of play calls and forward them to the coaching staff. Oh, and while you're at it,
figure out whatever the hell was going on on defense.
