This is a historically great defense. It is not a vulnerability. If you're playing the odds, our offense is more likely to peter out than our D is to give up a lot of scoring drives.

So you want to give a sputtering offense more chances?

That's like gamblers who bet more once they start losing. You are pouring gas on the fire of odds going against you.

I understand and agree to disagree. We're not good enough to only have a few bites at the apple and our defense is good enough to minimize what the other side can do. I think that given enough bites at it we will execute. We are that good on offense. I simply, at this point trust the defense more than the offense. Within reason, I don't think this defense needs to be protected with time of possession.

There is no getting around odds so feel free to believe whatever you want. The cold reality is that in football, every possession you give your opponent without increasing your lead is a gift of win probability to them. Even if you have the better offense, defense, athletes and coaching.

“more plays” is not universally good—it is good only when:
they are offensive plays
they are efficient
they consume clock
and they turn into points

Anything else is just giving the opponent another coin flip—and upset math lives off of coin flips.

Again, the problem Saturday night was not a lack of opportunity to make plays. It was a lack of execution. They did not produce points.

Going forward, nothing else needs change. Day has beaten talented teams before with the exact same fundamental structure. His approach is not the problem, it was just one outcome.

I'm thinking his enthusiasm for investing in TCUN football is waning since he's not the real fan in the marriage (afaik), and his $12M into a QB appears to be heading quite possibly toward zero, so to speak.

Yeah. Rich people want ownership, they don't want investments where their "assets" can disappear at the drop of a hat.

You have to wonder who they get now?

Is there anyone worth a damn left?

If I’m TCUN (thankfully I’m not) they have to go offer Cig 20 mil a year
