Game thoughts

[cruzer]

Well, the excitement around Pitt football sure came to a crashing halt today. Actually, it was a good reality check for those who thought our defense was good (I was not one of them).

A few observations:

The good:

1. I suppose you could say that the team never quitting was a positive. That's a stretch but all we've got.

2. Jester Weah actually caught a ball and scored.

The bad:

1. Holy crap were our DB's bad. I mean pathetic. Avonte Maddox is burnt toast. The rest of the DB's were not much better. Honestly, I have never ever seen receivers so wide open for an entire game.

2. Our Oline really didn't open many holes. OSU was much quicker and stronger.

3. Our LB's did pretty much nothing.

4. Peterman stunk.

5. Our Dline got very little pressure, even when we blitzed.

I'm actually surprised the game was even close. We have a long, long, long way to go to compete against quality teams with talent.

Those were some quality receivers. Pitt doesn't have a receiver on the roster who could make 2-deep on OSU's squad. Who was the guy who continually had Maddox out on an island against an all-american receiver?? Oh... he got burned... who would have thought?

Maddox and Lewis will be burnt toast next week as well.

So we lost in the last few possessions and THOSE are the only positives? You suck.

Except for the play of the offensive line, every other point you make relates to what were pretty certain to be weaknesses in this team and they are just that! Our OL,is overrated. O'Neil and Bookser aren't very good yet.

Yep, that's pretty much it. I call it like I see it. We were very lucky to even be in that game. If you've got lots of positives, let's hear them. If not, go away and cry.

Positives: no one got struck by lightning!
