A lot of people blamed Steve Bono. Steve Bono put Lin Elliot in a position to fail. Tyler Thigpen put Connor Barth in a position to fail.

Why even respond to this? Thigpen is the least of our worries.

Well when your quarterback can't convert third downs, that happens.

He shit the bed in the second half. We're lucky it wasn't worse. There was at least one dropped interception.

Thigpen may not be good enough but take a look at all of the other situations where this TEAM had the opportunity to close out this game:
- 34 yard field goal - 50 yard field goal - Dropped onsides kick - Defense under 2 minutes - Defense under 40 seconds - LJ on 3rd and inches - Fade pass on 3rd and 1 in the red zone - Interception in the end zone - Challenging the line of scrimmage pass - etc, etc, etc There's plenty of blame to go around. I put Thigpen near the bottom of reasons why we lost the game.

When your RB, who is the highest paid player on your team, can not convert short yardage 3rd downs, it is not the fault of the QB with limited experience. LJ had 55 yards on 17 carries, THAT is not getting it done!!!

If you're saying Thiggy put Barth in a position to fail, then I'm saying Herm put Thiggy in a position to fail. Barth's job is to kick field goals when the team is in position. A 34-yard kick should be nailed. Every. Time. As I said earlier, I'll give Barth a pass on the long kick at the end. Those 50-yarders are tough. But we lost by less than a FG. The short kick early in the game was the difference between a win and a loss. |

Every snap of the ball is a chance to succeed or fail.
Unfortunately Thigpen just kept failing, and failing, and failing, and failing, after halftime. No wonder his teammates followed suit!
