I thought early on that Card looked like a pretty good QB. He is not.

I’ve not been impressed as of yet. Not lived up to the hype yet imoI thought early on that Card looked like a pretty good QB. He is not.
That looked like a bears game with bad Fields. Hold it hold it hold it get sacked for no reason
Plummer is definitely better than Card. I'm not sure it's close.And we thought Jake Plummer was bad!
And Plummer isn’t good. Says a lot. I’d be up for Card to transfer out and chase a bowl and payday and us start over at QB. Not sure I can watch another year of him here.Plummer is definitely better than Card. I'm not sure it's close.
For this game Card gets a grade F.Misses open receivers,holds ball too long,throws into double coverage,does'nt run when he should.I thought early on that Card looked like a pretty good QB. He is not.

Yeh, our WRs don’t get a lot of separation. Would be interesting to see their 40 times. Burks is supposed to be fast but even on the go routes, he’s not that open most of the time. Might be a coaching/route running issue also. David Bell wasn’t a burner but got open.The difference between Plummer and Card is that Plummer actually has some weapons to throw to.
None of the receivers on this team can get separation, nor can they catch the ball.
ARY - 5 targets - 1 catch (2 home run balls dropped)
Burks - 9 targets - 4 catches
Sheffield - 9 targets - 6 catches
The only guy on the team that reliably caught anything was Garrett Miller. He was 8 for 8.
Give Card a weapon like Thrash and you'll see the difference...

My biggest fear going into the game was our receivers getting separation......and on most occasions they didn't...The difference between Plummer and Card is that Plummer actually has some weapons to throw to.

There were a few times he had many seconds of pass protection and still held it too long.The problem is he has no protection and the coach is giving him a horrible awful bad game plan.
Iowa has good corners. Often do.My biggest fear going into the game was our receivers getting separation......and on most occasions they didn't...
Ouch. Glad I didn't watch this one.This is not about the protection from the o line or receivers lack of separation. Card was just bad. Both interceptions were just horrendous. The play they overturned Burks is out because the QB threw the ball 3 yards out of bounds. He hit a defender in the back under throwing Sheffield by 5 yards on a big 3rd down. The last 4th down, Burks is open for an easy conversion but has to lay out for it. He stands back there for 5 seconds then tries to scramble and takes terrible sacks and or leads to holding calls.
We are 5 games in and he’s got 6 TD, 5 INT and a couple fumbles. He just isn’t very good.
I think you are right.Hopefully he will improve as the season goes on.I just dont think he will be benched now.This is not about the protection from the o line or receivers lack of separation.

Plummer is 2 yrs older thoughPlummer is definitely better than Card. I'm not sure it's close.

Agreed and I hope both he and our play calling improves. But he should have been benched last game. Not for good, but about 3 boneheaded plays for most coaches is enough to get you pulled that game.I think you are right.Hopefully he will improve as the season goes on.I just dont think he will be benched now.
Agreed. Purdue is lacking in coaching and schemes on both sides of the ball. Card has very few options when options 1&2 are not there. The defense seems to be playing better but is getting beat up front in the run game. When you can't stop the run and you give up big plays in the passing game, that spells doom...The problem is he has no protection and the coach is giving him a horrible awful bad game plan.
And we know what we are....6 games in
FOquit talking to yourself in my thread lol
BTW I used to live on 886 W in Bippus. Good times.
Not to mention him tossing it just anywhere when going to the ground. Just throw it away. Not sure I have seen him just throw it away all year. He needs to stop losing yards and just losing the down.

Our defense has been playing pretty good since the 2nd half of the Wisconsin game. They are the only reason we haven't been losing by 30 each game.Agreed.

well, it looks like I was wrong about Macias, I thought he looked like a good young kicker, but has missed 3 easy FG's lately.Our defense has been playing pretty good since the 2nd half of the Wisconsin game. They are the only reason we haven't been losing by 30 each game.
Ya, down that much why kick it. Dies nothing fir score and if missed kills moralVery bad decision to kick it there. This is guy is in way over his head. Does he have a mentor he can call and get some guidance?
Haven't we only made like 2fgs all year?
They need to hold tryouts. Someone on campus has to be better.During a break in the game a student from the stands kicked several FGs in a contest. Why isn't he on the team?
