OK, take the three. Good to see we could move the ball and get some 1st downs.

Turds board is in full meltdown. Firing Candle seems to be the talk of the day. Good for EMU to win a close one, even though they almost wet the bed.

Childers feet did. Listen to that old guy announcer. He identifies what Childers does wrong passing. That pass to Brown was an easy TD but Childers was late with the pass and didn’t have the arm strength to throw a dart in there.

He did complete 7 passes on that drive. But you're right. A good throw to DJ should've been a TD and the last throw could easily hjave been a pick. But his 7 completions (and his feet) did lead to a FG. And we have the lead...

Looks like the wind is a factor.

Childers had some nice throws. Just want consistency to improve.

He's stepping up instead of running to the sidelines...

I think Childers has shown what he is. A 50-something percentage passer who can't complete the deep ball. That's what we got to play with... We're not getting a new QB.

That was a nice fake by Childers and a good run. He's running well today.

This has been known since his first game. He was supposed to get better this year....has not.

I have consistently criticized him but he is playing well so far today.
