No trust on offense
« on: September 17, 2022, 10:05:58 PM »
it just oozes all over the field.

Deuce doesn't trust his oline to actually make the block or finish the play.

AM doesn't trust the WRs to make the right read and run the right routes.

The WRs don't trust AM can actually get them the ball.

It's a full disaster. Disorganized.

OC is clearly not ready for the position.

Oof. Give more credit to deuce and oline, but yeah
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

CK didn’t have a clue today.

I love Deuce, but you can see the pressure he's putting on himself to score a TD every play or that he knows he's going to need to dodge getting hit 5 yards behind the line of scrimmage because yet another block was missed or OL got trucked.

You're overthinking this, bud. The deuce and we stuff is fan fiction. It isn't nearly close to that deep.

It honestly felt like CK was prioritizing keeping Deuce's 100-yard consecutive game streak alive over play calling that could actually win us games. I don't know how many times he handed off to Deuce but it was a disaster every time except, I think, twice when Deuce broke off for around 20-30 yards. I haven't seen the stats but I'm sure Giddens was averaging more ypc than Vaughn.

I'm sure CK was just unimaginative at play calling but I'm convincing myself he was calling those crap plays because he was just trying to keep Deuce's record alive.

Also how in the hell were we not putting Adrian under center during 4th and 1 after 4th and 1? Echoes of the Ron Prince era.

9AM has got the yips - badly.

He should be benched - but we (I guess?) don’t have anybody else that’s developed enough to take over. That’s a bigger concern to me that chasing a stat line for a record.

4 ypc Vaughn
5 ypc Giddens

He kept handing it off to one of the best running backs in college football and by far our best player and best option for a game breaking play.

The Adrian from the shotgun is stunning and very surprising from Klein, the human battering ram on short line to gain situations. The dude must still be hurt.

Is he practicing his prose for his offer of grads to Tulane's coach?

Being incredibly mediocre and below average will do that.

the only thing that we learned in week three is that we haven’t pounded the stone hard enough


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

My guess is that he was told not to, or at least “no turnovers.” I agree with that, actually.  He is not good enough to get away with turn overs.

They definitely know he sucks at throwing and told him to stop but they also need to run him into the ground due to said sucking.

How about that absolute dime he threw to Warner for a TD? Is he short arming throws on those short wide open routes? They are comically bad

I've thought a lot about that pass and I think he was comfortable with that pass because it had a slim chance to get picked because it was at the back pylon

He also knows Kade

Maybe he just doesn’t trust Knowles et all to come down with the ball

Some of the people around our seats were talking about Malik getting into it with AM later in 2nd half. I didn't see it. Did that happen?

Yes.  He (among others) was obviously frustrated and finally separated from the area by a coach.  Nothing beyond what you’d expect from teammates during a game like yesterday’s.

If he's thinking about that while he's in the pocket, then he really does need a shrink. Warner caught 30 passes in 3 years and only 5 his last year at Nebraska.

Defense and special teams will keep us in some games but QB and kicking game are going to lose us a lot more
