    If Brown makes more , makeable plays, it never gets to that. He missed open receivers, time, and time, again with behind throws, over throws, and bad reads.

    Ducks last drive in regulations they went into a time burning mode instead of trying to drive down and get a score. In my opinion this loss is on the coaches, they were coaching not to lose, rather then to win.

    I get all that, but even with that, it took 3 terrible calls in Stanford's favor for them to win

    Still the biggest issue is lack of discipline. Like when it was 1st & 10 and all you needed to do was snap the ball and instead back 2 back fall starts. Brown doesn’t look like a leader on the field at all. He will be gone soon anyway. Right now just give it to Ty Thompson and let the kid grow up.

    it was working until two false-start penalties in a row. Ducks should not have passed and instead, forced Stanford to burn their final time-out

    True, but that's not the reason they loss. This is on the Ducks. They totally shut down Stanford, and then decided to be stupid on both sides of the ball.

    DAMN STRAIGHT! You have a break now before the next game. Extra practice time. Perfect to get the 5 Star ready to go.

    I'm fine with the Ducks switching to Ty Thompson. I do not believe today will be their last loss, so I don't think they have a lot to lose by making the change

    I've been told that both Thompson and Butterield will have good practices, and then have bad ones. They are inconsistent in practice and make progression mistakes. So, expecting the young guy to come in and have a lot of success does not seem realistic. Thompson isn't much of a runner either

    Brown is just a worse version of Darron Thomas. Thomas had his limitations, but he was pretty good for what he was. He wasn't a Mariota, but he was fine. Brown reminds me of him a little bit, but he doesn't seem to stand out on anything.

    playing to not lose is a bad way to play. You lose more often than you win.

    Duck would have won by 3 TD's today if Darron Thomas was QB

    They just aren’t very good. Loads of talent, great recruiters. Need coaches. Same old story. Zero business losing to Stanford. Refs bad but Ducks absolutely didn’t deserve to win. Cristobal always looks like he’s coaching his first game.

    The fact that Herbert looked very ho-hum in his senior season and now looks like the best young QB in the NFL says quite a bit.

    Well how many times do I tell ya this.

    Mario Cristobal is a great recruiter maybe the best one out there but his X and Os coaching in game is terrible. Very vanilla and boring

    Another take I have is why the fuck are we playing this 10 year senior? Play your fucking 5 star freshman qb and use this year as the development year experience. Just wasting precise time everybody knew this wasn’t a playoff team anyways. Develop the kid
