FB: Duke 26, Northwestern 20 (2OT)

Steal it Devils!

 

[SkyBrickey]

Belin gave us a lift at QB with his legs

 

[SavDukeGrad]

The one thing we can’t afford - injuries. Jaquez Moore in a boot. Nick Morris on crutches. Hasley taken off on a cart. And down to our 3rd string linebacker. I feel horrible for these guys. But this may be a long season.

 

[cbarry]

Why not kick the FG here? 56 yds with stiff wind at your back.

Seeing signs that the defense may be tiring. If so, it is understandable.

D is tired. Getting killed on runs and screen passes.

 

[HPDevil]

Receivers not get separation, so it would be simplistic to blame it on the QB. Still, a change there for the rest of the game may be the answer.

 

[heyman25]

Duke just has too many mistakes dropped passes. Play calling is questionable. Just frustrating as hell to watch.

 

[Atldukie79]

Lots of balls hitting our receivers hands that are not caught.

 

[heyman25]

Shocking how bad Duke’s passing game

 

[tommy]

Our team can’t catch.

 

[gep]

Our team can’t catch.

Can’t run either

 

[heyman25]

Nicholas can’t intercept an easy catch. It’s going to be a long flight to Durham

 

[Atldukie79]

Hands.
We don’t seem to have them today.
Receivers
DBs
Punt returner
Ugh.

Add FG kicking to the list

Oof

Really frustrating to watch. I had high hopes for us this year. I initially thought 8-9 wins. I’m now thinking 1-2 wins.

Oof

I don’t know. I feel like Pellino’s kicking has been a strength. I’ll give him a pass for that one in this wind.

But I’d add turnovers and penalties to the list. We have not played a clean game.

 

[cbarry]

I think that is a catch. Came out after he hit the ground

He has been decent. But missing a 33yd FG, wind or not, is no bueno.

when people say players have "no juice"...

this is what I see in Star Thomas. run game is suffering from somehow having a player that looks worse than JAG.
