BERKELEY–On Saturday during Cal’s game with the Oregon Ducks Cal missed a lot tackles a whole bunch as a matter of fact and the defense is suffering. The Bears just can’t seem to get off the field and the linebacker play has been poor. On Saturday night they were playing mainly with two linebackers.

Those guys have to be in position when they play and make tackles in the open field to make it happen. Cal allowed 477 yards for rushing yards. The other issue is Cal quarterback Jared Goff he played well last night and on the issue of time and protection he missed erred throws and there were too many dropped passes.

He did throw for 300 yards Saturday night but he missed on more than half of his passes and he just can’t get it done that way. So Cal has an extremely important football game next week against Oregon State and they need to end this losing streak or their season that started so promising will end far less than that.
