what is maddening is there seems to be the assumption that good offense and good defense are mutually exclusive. Like you can only have one. Why not both. Why the F does KF not insist on having a good offense. You know you can take teams out of their game by going up by 2 or 3 scores. It can help recruiting by scoring more points, there are a lot of benefits to moving the ball more, scoring more points ..you can run the clock too! You don't run the clock by handing off 3 times and punting. slam head on wall.

So many think its one or the other...
Yes, Kirkball has some requirements to work and to be called Kirkball, but a bottom of the barrel offense is not one of them. You can play Kirkball better, more successfully with more first downs and more scoring.

There was a better angle that showed Moss freeze to cover the tight end who was breaking free. From that angle you can still see it, it's at the 3 second mark. I might have been wrong on that being a first down as the tightend still had a ways to go in order to reach the line of the gain. But either way Moss should have stuck with the deep route, the safety was cheating over to help with the other 2 receivers on the other side of the field so when Moss hesitated it left that deep receiver wide open.

In Parker's press conference, he verified that you were right...Moss blew it on that play. I guess he didn't specify if it was because he thought we were in a different coverage, or if he just got caught peeking and trying to jump a route, but Parker was clear that Moss messed up. And then complemented him for coming back and making that hustling INT in the 2nd half.

I was at the game, and thought the same. In my estimation, Moss is just an amazing athlete, but on rare occasions gets burned because he's decided to jump a route. On those other occasions, he's a lockdown CB who also intercepts the ball a fair amount.

Edit: I'm not sure if he actually jumped a route there or was in no man's land, making a choice for a moment and then it was too late.

He had 2 receivers breaking free on him and the split second hesitation was all the receiver needed to get wide open. He should have not even looked at that tightend because even if the throw does go to him Moss can still come back and tackle him, it may not even had been a first down.

Nobody is perfect, he's still one hell of a corner for a white guy! :p
