    Or just let a shorthanded team somehow hang around, like we always do.

    Quay Walker… lost in coverage. What else is new?
  3. adambr2
    Me too, and that’s kind of the problem.
  4. adambr2
    Doubs!

    YOU know the count and you’re the one that jumps. Come on.

    Great start. That said, classic Quay Walker dropping the INT.

    Remember when we hired Fickell and the whole culture of Badger football was going to change, the recruits were going to flock to UW and we were going to start be a playoff caliber team in a couple seasons? That was a pretty fun couple months of thinking all that.

    I admittedly haven’t followed NBA Cup play whatsoever since it started to know if it’s anything that anybody really cares about or what kind of prestige is at stake other than a little extra cash for the players. But it’s nice to see the Bucks playing better lately. Giannis is still Giannis but bench options like Trent especially are probably better than we give them credit for and better than we’ve had in the past.

    Maybe this is a hot take, maybe not, but Quay is a bust. It’s actually kind of shocking that they continue to trot him out there week after week. He’s one of the worst defensive regulars in the NFL and at the center of nearly every defensive miscue.

    Aubrey just casually drilling a 64 yard FG in the 3rd quarter and having it pulled off the board because Houston committed a personal foul so now they can go for a TD.
  11. adambr2
    In the moment I thought they should kick for sure. Upon reflection today I can see either side. Part of the missing “context” for me is that the Bears have a really tough red zone defense. Unfortunately we just don’t seem to have great red zone weapons to give us a solid chance of converting those one shot plays.

    I will contradict my previous post a bit for a minute by agreeing with this and noting that this is something that is often overlooked by the “take the points” crowd. The risk/reward is not as simple there as a guaranteed 3 points versus a possible 6-8 points. If you forego the 3 guaranteed points and go for the 6-8 and fail, you still get a “consolation prize”, for lack of a better term, of 25 yards of field position versus position on the field if you take the 3 points. Getting nerdy and analytical here for a moment, a drive starting from your own 5 yard line has an expected value of -1.3 points, versus +0.2 starting from your own 30. These are obviously just general estimates with no game context, but they give us some rudimentary idea of the value of field position. So by taking the 3 points and losing the field position, you’re really only gaining +1.5 points in expected value. Now obviously, there’s plenty of times and situations where that guaranteed 3 points is really needed, so situations can vary, but they give us more insight into what coaches are thinking about going for it down there.

    Was MLFs decision to go for it on 4th and goal from the 6 early in the 4th quarter rather than kick the FG to make it 19-17 supported by analytics? It seemed like a lot more of an emotional decision than a rational one.
  14. adambr2
    MLF for some bizarre reason called his 3rd timeout after the completion to KA with 35 seconds left. Chicago had the timeout in their pocket and a 1st and 10 at the 30. They had the whole field to use, could run or pass the ball, and another 10 or 15 yards basically ices it.
  15. adambr2
    Really dumb by the Bears not to try to get a little closer for the FG, they had time and downs to do so. Even another 10 or 15 yards pretty much makes it a gimme. 46 is not a chip shot.
  16. adambr2
    Anyone who sincerely thinks this team is in Detroit's league just flat out isn't being honest with themselves.
  17. adambr2
    Almost everything they do wrong defensively is on Walker. He absolutely sucks and the Packers' coaching staff seems to be the only guys who can't figure that out.
  18. adambr2
    Words can't describe what a shameful and pathetic effort that was from Green Bay since the opening drive. Terrible coaching, the usual terrible mistakes on offense and terrible defense. Low energy and low effort, poor tackling, poor coaching, poor execution. And it's become a staple of MLF teams after the bye.
  19. adambr2
    Sick of this garbage by Jordan in big moments. Flat out not earning the contract.
  20. adambr2
    At this point the Bears, depite trailing, are playing with much more energy and enthusiasm than we are. We better get it together.
  21. adambr2
    Dramatic flopping by Caleb, but that was a stupid shove by McKinney when you had a chance to make the stop.
  22. adambr2
    Hated MLF's decision to punt from midfield. Too much confusion, not enough execution defensively right now.
  23. adambr2
    Don't know why he stopped that punt. Looked like it was destined to roll out of bounds at the 2 or 3.
  24. adambr2
    Kind of why I just don’t really get very emotionally invested in college football. I enjoy the Badgers, sure, if it’s a good game, but winning or losing doesn’t really feel anything like when the Packers or Brewers win or lose. You have to essentially know your role as an NCAA program in college football. If you’re not a blueblood, you play for rivalries and the consolation prizes like the Paul Bunyan axe, not national championships. It’s hard for me to get psyched up about stuff like that. Absolutely more power to you if you can, though.

    Well….good luck next year.
