Notre Dame at Purdue: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

[qazplm]

Man the talent differential, speed, power is just massive.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Boilers with the circle defense again - no edge......yikes.

 

[HUD628]

good lord was the entire d line laying on the ground on that play

 

[PaBoiler78]

Like to see some screen passes when they blitz

they throw a little dump pass and nobody within 10 yds

 

[qazplm]

Feels like they should play zone. Don't know if we have the talent to play man to man defense

 

[PaBoiler78]

Do we not have containment? Good grief

3rd and 8 , run up the middle for first, joke

 

[mryankee2397]

different year, same old crap. i have no confidence in this coach. just hazel 2.0

 

[qazplm]

Yeah. We're cooked. This defense is just not good. ND looking like a juggernaut after two games of bad offense

Weakness in the dline and LB is killing us.

 

[FLAG HUNTER]

Defense is like a step slow

 

[PaBoiler78]

Man the talent differential, speed, power is just massive.

recruiting, recruiting

 

[mryankee2397]

we need a coach who can recruit better players. this guy is a joke. going to be a long season(s)

 

[PUQBMan.]

God damn this D is soft and can’t tackle for shit. DT looking like a JV player, not an All American.

 

[RDUBoiler]

Announcer: "That was too easy." Yup.

The D is looking awful.

 

[RossMackey]

Men against boys right now…

 

[BBG]

I hope my post doesn't age well, I really do.. but coming off of a 2 weeks to prepare we look horrible on both sides of the ball and the curb stomping at home has begun.

Yeah, Theinemann has been exploited a lot today.

 

[qazplm]

recruiting, recruiting

The problem is our recruiting of the lines hasn't been great.

Doesn't matter if you do well elsewhere if you can't block and you can't get off blocks and that's what's happening.

This was my concern watching ISU. I didn't see the level of line play on either side that gave me confidence but I'd hoped that was simply because we were being vanilla.

Apparently it was not.

 

[BBG]

Announcer: "That was too easy." Yup.

Everything but our punting game looks awful right now.

 

[gbl97]

Now we look like Indiana State did against us. Different league.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Aye Yai Yai, Boilercita....

 

[RossMackey]

The team sucks, but Ross-Ade looks absolutely spectacular on TV

 

[HUD628]

Our defensive front is as weak as I feared

 

[seminolesboilers]

Blowout…

 

[qazplm]

I'm done. This is not worth watching.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Targeting?

I mean he did lower the boom.....dang.

 

[HUD628]

Possible targeting not looked at and then they let Card take a shot to the head. We could really use a break here lol

 

[mklinker]

Time to mow the lawn.....

 

[Bippus33]

That’s our “genius” scheme!

18.............................

 

[qazplm]

This isn't a scheme issue. It's a talent issue IMO. They are faster, stronger and more talented on both lines, LBs and simply overpowering us.

Staff is going to have to fix that by next season or they're going to be unemployed.

Yup, was thinking the same thing. Two weeks, not a good look

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Yikes - (-61 pt differential in 1st Q since 2023) - worst in the nation. That stat tells a lot - digging holes early.

 

[PaBoiler78]

Time to mow the lawn.....

tomorrow for me

 

[BBG]

At this point all you can do is laugh.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Getting Akers and Colletto flashbacks, but that could also just be generally my life flashing before me.....

 

[HUD628]

my good did Sales even get a hand on that guy on the edge? Pathetic

 

[RossMackey]

Apparently those who forecast Purdue to be at the bottom of the league were onto something…

With our meat- grinder schedule— we are in big trouble if our lines remain this inept 🤢

 

[Bippus33]

Defense is like a step slow

The issue is bigger than that and involves both sides of the ball......

 

[ImRonBurgandy?]

My goodness this offensive line sucks

 

[PaBoiler78]

my good did Sales even get a hand on that guy on the edge? Pathetic

isn't he from from some small school?

We are just getting destroyed at the los.
