-Conner Time

 

[PittPanthers90]

ESPN App on Roku is up
ACC ESPN Network logo looking good
Ready for gametime!

 

[VAPITTALUM]

Ready to watch this team come out firing. Power restored about 30 minutes ago, I think it's a sign!

 

[Toddy_Too_Hotty]

Amazon Firestick is bringing the game to us...just started

 

[steel_curtain]

-Fake Punt stuffed by Pitt defense.

 

[VAPITTALUM]

Not a good start so far. Offensive line is getting handled.

 

[vegasgreed]

my broadcast keeps freezing up, did they stuff JC on that first drive? did we throw the ball at all?

 

[OmarLittle]

freezing for me too. decided to listen to hillgrove online, follow the play by play on espn, and watch what i can :/

Gotta give the Oline some time to adjust.

 

[vegasgreed]

it was just a question, not criticizing. i'll ask again, did we throw at all on that first drive?

-Yes, 1 completion for 9 yards to Henderson.

 

[VAPITTALUM]

Really cheap shot by the Nova player on Zeise. Hope he's ok.

 

[mike412]

Funny, the commercials play fine but the action freezes constantly.

 

[mzeiler1]

So far Nova is faster and more presise on what they want to do. Need to get it together!!!!

 

[SouthSidePanther]

Pitt looks really slow on both sides of the ball.

 

[vegasgreed]

overall, were not looking sharp.

 

[VAPITTALUM]

Even the punts are flat. It's early, but damn.

 

[FieldHouse12]

CAPRARA....
Lets go Offense Now..

 

[VAPITTALUM]

That's more like it!

 

[deepelemblues]

8 wins looks like a very accurate ceiling if this is how the offense is going to play in the first half of games yet again

 

[steel_curtain]

-Defensive line pass rush so far so good. Offense needs to move the ball. Zero first down in the 1st quarter. Defense on the field the whole game. Cant get crushed in time of possession like last year.

-Play Action Pass, use it now.

 

[rockypanther]

Not impressed at all with play calling by Canada, Steel. Where are the running plays?

 

[Hailpitt]

Where is Moss?

 

[FieldHouse12]

This offense sucks, we do have more players than 24... wtf

 

[vegasgreed]

Maybe the slow offensive start is Chaney's fault...

 

[Hailpitt]

Is Winslow able to Punt with hang time?

 

[rockypanther]

It makes a big difference not having Aston playing and Holtz not being a blocker on the line. We need to get some short bubble screens and slants to Quadree to loosen up the D. How about a rollout to Orndoff? Where is a screen pass designed to Moss?

Christ almighty the first quarter of the first game hasn't ended.

 

[SouthSidePanther]

New OC and lack of receivers making things difficult on offense. Guess we'll have to be patient.

 

[deepelemblues]

Christ almighty the first quarter of the first game hasn't ended.

it's playing against villanova.

villanova.

4 drives into the game the offense is finally playing like it's playing against villanova.

 

[steel_curtain]

-Henderson is good. If it wasnt for about 2 inches, he'd have about 60 receiving yards so far.

You over reacted just admit it

 

[Gregory25]

Was that Hendrix that carted off field?

 

[steel_curtain]

You over reacted just admit it

-Not a fan of the play calling thus far. We can't go to Conner every other play of the game like Boyd last year. The entire defense is keying on stopping him.

 

[HailToPitt725]

For as many prospects as we have on the line, I wish we got more movement up front. Backs haven't had much to work with.

 

[JD1976]

Running game slow going so far. Come on Blewitt lets get on the board here.

 

[Hailpitt]

Connor is not very good at catching balls out of backfield. Stop it!. Play calling needs to avoid the Tyler Boyd predictability that marked Chaney's short tenure here

 

[vegasgreed]

but steel, i thought we were going to run the ball down the throats of everybody on the schedule, even big bad villanova.

 

[VAPITTALUM]

He blewitt...

 

[SouthSidePanther]

O line is disappointing. Should be dominating in running game even if Villanova is keying on it.

 

[JD1976]

Winslow and Blewitt not doing their job so far today. Ugh
