Smith Injury

[td577]

Oh I watched the game,and understand the situation,its a Huge situation............. But the problem isnt just him. Thats all I was sayin'

I like Brock and have always supported him. Since he has taken over as the full time starting QB for this team, the record speaks for itself. Now, with that being said, lets not get crazy here. That pick 6 was all on Brock. He made a terrible throw. No one else in the Fargodome threw that ball. I also would venture to guess if you asked Brock he would tell you that play was on him. That wasn't a difficult play for a FCS QB.

If we are going to call him a championship QB, which he has earned, you also have to accept he should get a brunt of the blame when his play isn't so good. Sometimes he makes bad throws. Sometimes he makes very good throws. The Bison are very good at about a 60/40 split in run vs. pass, but that is still over 40% of the time where the QB decision making process is effecting the entire game.

I trust Brock and this team but there is nothing wrong with taking the #16 spectacles off and realizing he is deserving of both the respect and occasional criticism he deserves. He could have tucked the ball and ran for a couple of yards setting up a better punting situation. He could throw the ball out of bounds. He could take the sack. There were other choices but the one he made and attempted to execute, was wrong. That simple.

Seriously people? Can we stop the bickering. Somebody help me with this movie. This place reminds me of the movie with Dennis Leary who kidnaps a husband (Kevin Spacey) and his wife who bicker so much they drive Dennis Leary to the point of insanity. I feel like Dennis Leary right now.

It was "The Ref."

Brock has made some silly throws this year and has seemed to have lost some confidence. I still trust him to manage our offense.


Every time you get frustrated with the bland pass attack we have had the second half of the season, then just think about the Mertens and Mohler reign. Mertens was mistake after mistake and Mohler wouldnt throw a pass over 5 yards.

The receivers haven't looked too open this year either.

Perfectly Written 110% all the way.

well so much for the Smith injury thread...lol

And, btw, I personally don't know anything about the seriousness of the injury. I hope he can contribute on Friday.

That Pick 6 should have been a touchdown the other way around. Vraa was breaking wide open down the sideline and had he caught it, he would have scored. It was good read but truly a horrible throw by Brock. That was a 14-point play for the bad guys.

The Ref is an awesome movie

Need a Bisonville version of it. Cast? I'll be Dennis Leary and I kidnap a gay couple played by PL and Justin Tyem.

Smith had a calf injury not the hammy. Gebhardt hurt knee the week before SDSU game and did not play against them or today.

Gebhart's injury is a hamstring problem. It was originally reported as a knee injury, but that turned out to be wrong.
