Milroe didn't hold the ball tonight. He had zero time.

Am I wrong?

For the most part, our olinemen were not getting beat either.

Am I wrong?

The stunting ends basically were never touched.

Why weren't we picking up the blitz?

Why wasn't there anyone to pick up the stunt up the middle?

And shouldn't there be an open release valve when we're outnumbered?

Someone educate me.

Reese and the OL broke the offense.

Anyone who tells you Milroe was at fault for this performance is an absolute moron.

If you watch the All-22, he had guys open all night. There were times where he missed guys, yes, but his play wasn't the sole reason why this team lost.

But he really only had time to throw a slant or into the flat.

And as far as missing reads, they did the same thing every play. They stunted a linebacker either up the middle or to the outside.

Milroe didn’t hold the ball tonight that’s true. He fumbled it late on the drive that could have put the game away

They both have issues. Stop trying to make Jalen into some victim. The dude really struggles with picking blitzes, holding the ball, going through reads, throwing screens. That stuff is on the QB too.

At some point, as a Qb you have to be able to see the blitz when it is coming. I think it was The last sack of the first half, the blitzed came from his blind side and he never even looked that direction to notice. His Rb went out in the flat and was uncovered. That’s the only e I though was on him.
Otherwise, Milroe often predetermines a deep shot and won’t take a wide open guy for a short gain. It’s a little maddening.

Two things can be true. It was all bad.

Milroe had no accuracy tonight.

You’re not wrong. Michigan had the horses to affect us same as Texas. We had our opportunities tonight but our season-long weaknesses were exposed. It was a fun year, only regret I have is it ending with a bad snap. Lol. Just turrible.

Unfortunately, we have a bunch of low IQ football fans that won't agree.

Anyone who thinks Milroe did not contribute to what happened on the field tonight I am not sure they understand the game.

Peak Tom Brady wouldn’t have been accurate tonight while getting his grill knocked in the dirt every pass. The O-line and our OC both had their worst performance since South Florida. Defense was ok for the most part but not great either.

Wrong... There were no points scored off that. The biggest issue was the next drive where Rees ran about 15 seconds off the clock and punted. Michigan then went the field and scored the tie.

How many times would Brady take a sack when he did not need to? Could Brady feel pressure? Would Brady throw the ball away instead of taking a sack?

A lot of the costly drive ending sacks for big losses, came from this.
I like Milroe a lot, but it bewilders me that he refuses to throw the ball away or
take the open short route. Instead, we get in a needless 3rd and long.

I believe the point was that we were gutting them that drive and had a reasonable shot at scoring there. Coulda woulda shoulda. Why can’t folks just admit Michigan was the better team today?

Milroe had several opportunities to throw the ball in a clean pocket and none of those throws were accurate. It is what it is.
