    Ducks' in-game coaching is not a strong suit. Really shows in a case like this where they desperately need to stop the bleeding and they don't know how.

    That play has just not worked all season; there is no room to run there.

    Brown just doesn't see the defense, at all. He ran right into the teeth of it on that play. You've got speed, use it!

    I get their coach not being there is a huge reason. But c'mon, use your ability and mind. Brown is showing he's a call play , run play QB. He shows zero improvisation. Time for Thompson.

    Major flub on that play, why go shotgun when you only need like 2 feet. TD there and another after the half and you could take charge of the game.

    The back view was best. It looked like he was still in possession of it when his helmet hit ground.

    Then it's time to go to your 5 Star prospect and see what he truly is made of. He might be the spark this team needs. Brown has been checkdown charlie all day, and when he threw long, he over threw a wide open, potential TD, receiver.

    Brown didn't read the defense, he needs to shoot the ball out to Verdell on that play. He's playing with blinders on today. Stanford sold out at the line. And Brown went into it like a magnet.

    Agreed. That last drive was a gut punch.

    This Duck team is a Ferrari. Right now their QB is grinding the gears. Time to put in a new driver.

    Yep, good call.
    Absolutely amazed at how they are dominating both lines. Brown’s accuracy isn't very good.

    Anthony Brown had a real bad half

    his interception resulted in 7 Stanford points, and it was about the dumbest interception I've seen. And his piss-poor decision on that 4th and goal cost the Ducks 7 points. That's a 14 point differential in favor of Stanford, and unless the Ducks dominate the 2nd half, those 14 points will be damn hard to overcome

    The Ducks must rely on their playmakers to get it done. Brown is a play runner, not a playmaker .

    Brown almost did it again throwing a pick to the same spot

    I saw the coach pat Brown on the back. I'm shocked the coach didn't rip him a new one. He wasn't pressured & threw another garbage pass.

    Brown plays like a robot. He's too tight to be a good QB.

    I don't think Stanford is dominating the lines that much. The defense looks the same as it has, and that is they are vulnerable in the flats behind the LB's. On offense, Brown is killing the ducks with bad decisions and bad passes
