Illegal Man Downfield

[SOJA]

Games are rarely won or lost on one play. That being said, Ickey getting an illegal man downfield, on the opposite side of the play, in which he did not affect the play at all put us from first and goal on the ten, to first and fifteen. Next play is a run for a loss of two. Next play is sack fumble for a TD which sealed the game. 

 

That penalty was so mind numbingly stupid and literally changed the course of this game. I'm not saying we would have won, we probably still would have found a way to poo the bed but Ickey is quickly going from a sophomore slump to a negative factor weekly

Ickey has been. Frustratingly lost sometimes. Seems like the game moves to fast sometimes and he just wants to go hit smoothing far too often. He also can't hold his own against technique on the edge. 

Might be time to look at kicking him inside. It might help our run game too.

Ikey has been killing momentum all year long.  Fitting he gave up the sack to end it

I could point to many mind numbingly stupid plays during this game. That play is one of many that cost us the game. I think you'd be hard pressed pinning this loss on that single play when our only touchdown came from the defense.

That being said, Ickey HAS regressed for sure. The entire line has. Perhaps this "experienced" coaching staff needs to be revaluated.
