We had them in it a few times. Still there was no way for 17 to help us today???

They got into the backfield immediately first two plays. I was mentioning it all game. Was surprised to see them not get any snaps
 
People getting mad when pass rushing specialists didn't play 80% of snaps when we played a 50s style wing t crap offense where at most they throw 15 to 20 times a game(maybe)

They didnt play period. When they came in they immediately made plays

Never said anything about 80 percent of the game. Fentress played at LB today

Its a small point but I was pretty disappointed that we couldnt come up with anything in the gameplan to get these guys in position to help us. Mccord especially. All the kid does is make plays.

Put him in punt block. GT had a few 3rd and longs and we never saw him
 
I remember hearing not one word about this kid until a few weeks before signing day. How'd we get this kid again? We were all hoping to land the kid with four names and the grandpa named Willard. **** that kid. I will take McCord any day over him.

I agree that they should not have played more. Defending a triple option requires experience and adherence to assignments. It's not that easy for most teams to play that kind of defense, since you rarely see it. I can understand the coaches not wanting to play their pass-rushing specialists for most of the game, especially when they are very young players. This is not an offense where you tell a pass-rushing specialist to pin his ears back and go. I think I heard McCord's name more toward the end when they had to pass more.

Now I'll wait for all the armchair coaches to tell me I'm wrong.
 
But you saw when they were in they both were meeting at the QB. I think we have enough depth building that we can have "situational guys". These two get after the QB...today we needed a different personnel grouping for most of the game.

Yeah they got in at the end because GT was behind and having to throw the ball. Golden said earlier this week Mccord wouldn't play very much because he's isn't as good VS the run as some of the older players.
