Arnold_Palmer Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 I don’t know what’s worse. The INT or the decision to throw in the flats down by 14 with just over a minute left.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Out Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Yeah, Nichols with another bad effort. 2018 hasn't been kind to him. But let's not pretend he's our #1 problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Zaius Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Matt Nichols is a shell of his 2017 self (for no real reason). He simply just sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigseye Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Nichols is definitely not the same quarterback we've seen the last 2 seasons, he no longer gives us the best (any) chance to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueandgoldguy Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Nichols was struggling for many games in the second half of last season. It's been over a year of average to below-average QB play. I suspect his days as a good quarterback are over. Lapo getting as much as he did out of Nichols in 2016/17 is a testament to his play-calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be "Lapolice boo" I mean, think about it, he was putting Nichols in 2nd and long with his conservative play calling and predictable runs on 1st down. If you do that against the Stamps, they'll just throw the kitchen sink at you every time. Ffs how bout mixing in some draws, not waiting till late in the game to go up tempo and get Matt in a rhythm, and what was that garbage screen to Demski resembling what Trestman called last night?

That **** clearly isn't working, so why do it? Why not go back to what worked in the past? Nichols needs to be way better in his execution but the play-calling lately has been utter trash.

We hardly ran a lot of the second and long s were after missed passes. Both guys had awful games. The call to fake the short yardage keeper and pass was the only great call for plop.

Once you pull Nichols while he is healthy don't expect to see the best of Nichols here again. Why? Because he is so sensitive? His play this year warrants being pulled and if he can't handle it he is not mentally tough. We have probably already seen the best of Nichols thanks to a dominant O-line in 2016-17.

No fake end arounds or nothing to try and fake the defense out. Trust me, Lapolice was putting Nichols in bad situations. blueandgoldguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your running back rushes for less than 17 yards play action is pretty useless. Eternal optimist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
