Empire 8 in-game updates

[Upstate]

Unfricking real...

Great D effort the last series, never got rattled and stopped UofR...

This Defense has won the past 3 games for Fisher...

[sjfcards]

Well....Fisher finds a way. Fisher has to get better than this.

The ERFP is going to be a mess this week.

Few things are as enjoyable as watching Fisher guys bemoan their team during every game, and then they win every week anyway 

[pg04]

I just have no idea what to think about Fisher. I watch their games and get left completely unimpressed and yet it just doesn't matter at all because they are 3-0. Interesting to see how the E8 slate goes.

Thus ends the Courage Bowl with UR as a participant.

Not.

So.

Fast.

My friend.

The SJF radio guys just said that Buff State plays in the Courage Bowl in 2013 and then Brockport takes over in 2014 and beyond...

It's beyond ridiculous to see a team full of talent squeak by week in and week out because the other team doesn't want to win and hands Fisher the win...

New QB time for Fisher

Enough of this offense as presently constituted with Kramer running the show.  He shows flashes but has been unreliable and a liability for most of the season.  I will say the one bit of hope I have is it took him a long time to get things going last year but he seemed to hit a groove during the second half of the season. 

I really want to see a more traditional offense again.  It is currently painful to watch.

They have two options...

Either bring Fenti in and move Kramer to the slot and find ways to get him the ball on swings, bubble screens, end arounds and other funs stuff like that.

OR

Stick with Kramer, bring in two TEs and just run the damn option all game then play action off of it...

I think he's a great player with the ball in his hands but he leaves a lot to be desired when he's asked to throw it...

Agreed! Love Kramer, especiallY with the ball in his hands. But throwing it is just not a legit t right now. And so, Fisher is just not a offensive power and will win squeakers for now...

Liability? Unreliable?  The kid hasn't turned the ball over the last two games... made the big plays when he had to
Is he playing real well, no but I can't complain of his clutch plays and winning games. Fisher is 3-0.. Kramer is 3-0. And as I said when fisher really needs a score he finds a way.  Also put some blame on the receivers. I counted at least 5 balls that should a been caught, and their route running is awful (being a former wr) I'm patient with Kramer because he bloomed midway through the season and he has thrown and played the qb position 100 times better at this point this year than last. Have faith in the kid, he's a winner. Fisher winning is all I care about

Can't keep playing bad for 3.5 quarters each week and expect continued success...

Their lack of a passing game is killing the offense...

I'm just saying I don't think Kramer is throwing as bad as one may think . Receivers are average at best, Fisher's strength is their run game and I still think there is no better person to put at qb than Kramer. He has noticeably improved throwing the ball, just wish he had Schmidt and Francis this year.

[boobyhasgameyo]

I'm not purposefully trying to dog him.  I disagree that he has improved throwing the ball.  I have watched every minute of every game so far this year and he has over or under thrown his receivers way more than a product of the receivers running bad routes or dropping the ball in my estimation.  There are even times when they have connected on big pass plays where it would have been even bigger if Kramer could have hit the receiver in stride but he doesn't.  They have to wait or turn around to catch where he is throwing it.  I have seen him make a few excellent throws but they are the exception. 

I have been saying all along he improved last year as the season progressed.  I hope for the same this year.  I will gladly accept being wrong.
