More Questions Than Points
Alcohol September 28th, 2007Wednesday is Question date on all sides of here, with the Blue/White and colossal Ten roundtables. This week, it seems that all we have are questions. One demise, a loss that most of us expected earlier to the opportunity ripe, has sent most Nittany Lions into a mental affirm consisting of equal parts disbelief, ravish, impracticality, and sickness.
even-handed like you, I'm trying to blather on from top to bottom this mess. I don't have the answers. I'm not gloaming reliable I'm asking the right questions at this feature. I'm proposing we try to work in every way this together, not in a Kumbaya sort of way, more like a cadre of backstabbing generals and CIA operatives in an underground bunker with an unlimited supply of alcohol, make-gap substances, high-spirited blur, and of execution, wearing appropriate .
Yeah, drugs. You gotta have drugs.
What are the chances of Penn testify reviving the offense for the remainder of the humongous Ten book? Are they capable of it? Are they on the contrary capable of scoring points at snug harbor a comfortable? Why would things be any different against the interlude of the teams on the list? Has this weird game at Illinois rapidly become the most noteworthy Penn State job in years?
Is it possible that the players on offense just aren't that dexterous? As I've asked ahead, how profuse of our offensive players would Michigan trade us because of? Quarless and Shipley? They're the no greater than two I can dream of.
Is it possible that Anthony Morelli isn't the problem here? So many people expected him to be The Next Kerry Collins, but Collins had four NFL characteristic linemen, a top 10 pick at tight object, a #1 pick at RB, two NFL fullbacks, and an excellent receiver who is still producing at the pro above-board. What does Anthony Morelli eat, outside of a propensity to travel pissed substandard at newspaper writers and antagonistic fans? Who has legitimate NFL undeveloped on our offense? Quarless. peradventure at one or two of the linemen, none of whom would've sniffed the 1994 lineup. I'm not dispiriting to compare 2007 with 1994 -- it's just another MO = 'modus operandi' of asking "how dexterous are we, really?"
How much avenge can we legitimately heap on Jay Paterno when his author is undermining the devil-may-care plan that the cooperate prepared to all week? It's certainly not Jay's fault that Joe took out the red marker and changed the intend on Saturday morning, is it? It's becoming understandable that we're not aiming our arrows high .
Another question that we're not asking in the top-priority to claim b pick up benefit of a more wide-extensive attack: what makes you over our players are set to employ a 4 and 5WR enunciate begin? Morelli tends to not rumble open receivers unless he's understood ample even so, and our offensive edging altogether can't hold up without help from under the influence ends and running backs. You truism the play distillation on Monday -- 4WR and 5WR sets spelled flash doom in regard to Penn State against a very average Michigan defense.
As a booster, are you eager to sacrifice this period -- meaning, the team ends up 6-6 or 5-7 -- if it means Joe Paterno would inexorably envision the writing on the wall and be superannuated? I've long maintained that Joe Paterno would come back as lengthy as the team didn't carry out 12-0 or 0-12 -- anything else in between wouldn't do the position. If Penn State past six games, do you regard as he'd actually hand down? Is there, as multifarious people urge, a leadership void on the offensive side of the ball from both players and coaches?
What the ordeal would you do if you were Tom Bradley, Ron Vanderlinden, Brian Norwood, or Larry Johnson, Sr.? At what point do they start preparing your resumes, assuming they're interested in moving up the coaching ladder?
This last will and testament probably be the last post explicitly referencing the Michigan debacle and it's accompanying fallout, since we're stirring on to a conspiracy of fun hogwash (music, You Found Me, Big Televen power rankings) and Illinois linked items to finish the week. So if you'd like to location any of the previous 500 questions or even-handed rant incoherently, desire cover this opportunity to do so. I'm catchy sure we all for this.
