My thoughts, and average analysis, after re-watching the 'Lamar Jackson Hour(s)' from last week...
Here we go, twitter game review...Syracuse
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
First POG..Cuse has 8 guys within 3yds of LOS.... pic.twitter.com/uxFc9BoPJS
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
....and here are the other 3. As Quick said after game, man coverage on WRs probably wasn't the best choice. (TD) pic.twitter.com/TLRXj6G7ke
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Kickoff...return man brought down by [wait for it] Stacy Thomas. I swear he gets 90% of special teams tackles.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Quick did that DB dirty, baited him on flag route then dusted him by 5+yds... pic.twitter.com/HJ8GqhMV6G
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cards bring 4....Bailey gets the sack. Nice move to shed block.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
3rd and 10....Dungey escapes pocket and wide out drops deep ball. Tough catch but probably should have grabbed it (on Jaire)
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
2nd drive for Cards...Radcliff run well blocked by line. Went for 7 yds but could have been 2 or 3 yd loss w/o Hunter pulling & Atkins block
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cuse D has 9 guys within 6yds of LOS. Understand stopping short route but it was 2nd down. Jaylen (pin)open already pic.twitter.com/NFj4SSI6El
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Usually LJ reads DE or LB on option but all blocked. Benefit of keeping it (he did) is that Radcliff is extra block pic.twitter.com/04Z6YZw0UX
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Tough to see with blur but Radcliff actually takes on 2 blocks. Probably only 3yd gain if Radcliff got the ball. pic.twitter.com/od18f3QIvL
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Next Cuse possession Cards shut door on everything, with no blitzes. 3 and out.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
LJ reads DE(pin), crashing hard on Radcliff. That much open space for LJ is walk in the park...and he did (72ydTD) pic.twitter.com/yG6ECuwq9x
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Nice form tackle from Cannon on kickoff return. [I love special teams]
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Dee Smith had a great open field tackle..followed immediately by a whiff on bubble screen.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
LJ shook 3 guys in this run. Cameraman got it the worst.. pic.twitter.com/Zx9fiTXwQR
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Obvious miscommunication as Dee & Kelsey both blitz leaving man (pin) wide open to walk in for TD pic.twitter.com/J2H1eeQdKv
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Next Cards possession starts with LJ read (9yds) then Hikutini drop. Tough catch but one he usually makes. I'll track those [1]...
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
...tough to judge at times though. Should Smith have caught this laser? I'll say "hits hands, should be catch" [2] pic.twitter.com/lPiEgDJu1G
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cards D forces another 3 and out. Cuse went deep, faked a screen, then threw underneath on 3rd and 10 and got bottled up. Great series
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
1st thought was this was poor throw (underthrown) but more I watch it, think it was on purpose. Staples had... (1/2) pic.twitter.com/17EhfTE03H
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
(2/2) size advantage and no need to risk overthrow when he can go up and get it. It was a 60yd pass, but he's shown arm strength for 60+
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Card's D called for PI(Shaq) to prevent another 3 and out. Then Shaq makes great play on next 3rd down to force punt. (6 and out is OK too)
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Presnap Cuse has 0 guys outside hash. WAY to much space, esp when 4 crash on Radcliff pic.twitter.com/SzmHveaYCb
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
LJ missed Jaylen earlier in drive and missed likely TD to Samuel here. (Yes folks, he can be even better) pic.twitter.com/eZeoXvWCOC
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
LJ reads end(55) correctly. Hands it to Radcliff for 29yd gain. Good blocks up front by line, made man miss as well pic.twitter.com/zKpo0CXptl
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Peete makes nice move after catch but got caught switching hands w/ ball....fumble. End of 1st qtr
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Just noticed that when JHC lost his shoe they brought London in to take his spot. Interesting to see who else they try to play at "star"
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
LJ keeps. Hikutini blocks wrong man, short gain. Shows how important those blocks upfield are to his success. pic.twitter.com/y2uZxYXlfT
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
I get it. Def TDs are fun. But w/ our off Fields has to just fall on this. He missed, Cuse retains (Hearns w/ sack) pic.twitter.com/zNMaPd0tCd
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Next Cards drive LJ misses Quick deep on 1st play (likely TD) then Staples on outside. Reggie w/ drop [3]
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cuse best POG. D was misaligned at snap, then got tricked. Good play call. Good tackle by Chucky to save TD. pic.twitter.com/KzrmQKk2i5
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cards D holds on 4th down inside 15. Gets ball back to off. Couple nice throws then Hikutini doesn't get chance to secure ball.. turnover.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
I've watched this play 163 times. "Ball boy" reaction NEVER gets old. Jackson is unreal... pic.twitter.com/HqM5KeT7WE
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Next Cuse drive Cards give up 2 long passes for TD. Probably experiencing some "hurdle-fatigue" after what they just witnessed.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Next drive, Staples drop [6] Reggie drop [7] and Jaylen drop [8]... pic.twitter.com/uWTtQxsgus
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Next Cuse drive they had a couple really good play calls but Cards D looked gassed. Not pursuing ball like before. Cuse TD makes it 35-21
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
1st Drive of 2nd half Cards D needed stop to shift momentum. Cuse does Petrino imitation, looks deep twice, pressure on 3rd dn. Great 3&out
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cards drive. Great blocking by line and Cole to free Radcliff. He could have gone for 250yd if that was the gameplan pic.twitter.com/RguVou2LmA
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cards D with another 3&Out (Cuse false start penalty hurt drive) Defensive play was overshadowed by LJ. Good game w/ maybe 1 or 2 exceptions
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
If my boy Samuel scores you better believe its gonna be on my recap. Great blocks by Christian/Hughley(get him ball) pic.twitter.com/Vy3SV7CRls
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Remember when I made fun of Olsen last week for letting his RB get blasted on option? Dungey did the same. pic.twitter.com/DloNzWa8Du
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cuse drive kept alive by Dee penalty...mix of runs and mid range passes results in QB sneak for TD. 42-28
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Targeting call on Dee. Big loss for FSU in D and special teams. Cannon appears to be replacement. pic.twitter.com/5lPWIk5W3G
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Cards run reverse and Reggie took his eye off the ball on pitch resulting in fumble. Appeared to be looking at Lamar as target downfield
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Goes right back Reggie on screen...drop [9] Painful for me to watch, love that kid.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Been praising o-line so let's come back down to earth. Horrible on this play and LJ turns it into big gain. pic.twitter.com/Jaat9gmcof
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Not a lip reader but on missed O'Hara FG think Petrino said"Excuse me sir, that miss leaves me very displeased. I'd prefer you not do that"
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
This is why Petrino wants better blocking on punt returns. Jaire can make plays.. pic.twitter.com/udEoxmOuWF
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Next Cards drive, classic Petrino, very run heavy w/ LJ & Radcliff. O'Hara "totally redeems himself" w/ FG. Also had Samuel drop[10] 4th qtr
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Good defense again...Cards drive results in another FG after couple blown plays. Drive had Hikutini drop [11]
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Jaire w/ good play on ball for INT...but not a fan on tossing it back to Shaq. So many things could go wrong
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Radcliff w/ long run for TD, once again, solid blocks to open hole. Also good to see Radcliff outrun DB. Weight loss has helped w/ speed
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Very nice strip tackle from Chris Williams sets up offense on short field...and results in Jeremy Smith TD run
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Bolin, Malin Jones, Malik Williams, & Trey Smith work a solid 6+ minutes off clock...Cuse with a couple late plays before clock expires
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Solid effort from both sides but really impressed with D after re-watch. Two poor drives before half, otherwise played great.
— CardinalStrong (@CardinaIStrong) September 14, 2016
Obviously have to fix drops. Way to many "[ ]" in this post but hard to fault offense overall. Looking forward to the test from FSU.
