It’s me. It’s incredibly stupid. What are these 6’6” 280 lb hulking TEs supposed to do with the ball when they catch it. They also completely suck at blocking.

In principle with the perfect parts, having three TE’s who can both block and catch paired with a lethal RB and a very good O-Line and a QB that can make reads on a play action is a good idea. It’s just that we have like 35% of those things and thats hard to properly execute
Edit: also a cunning/competent offensive coordinator and coach

Sebastian was beat, but could’ve tackled him before the ball arived. At that point, you don’t care about 15 yards, you care only about giving up 70 for a TD.

Key word "dual" you can run like a deer, but if you cant throw for shit, go play running back, you aint a QB.

I like tempo. We have more talent than most of our opponents, so it makes sense to increase the reps. My frustration is the offense is a mess and makes little sense week to week, game to game and player to player. We run between the tackles one week with straight power. The next we have a lot of pulling, counters. Then zone strechess. Etc. None of it particularly crisp. We also are run first yet sometime we use play action sometimes we don't. We are explosive due to talent, not gameplan or consistency.

I believe this is due to Daz "self scouting" our team and making sure we go against trends. He thinks that the plays that work are because the D was confused by a formation or motion. The reality is that we ain't tricking anyone. The plays that worked are because our guys lined up and beat the guys they were against. No amount of motion is going to get Jon Baker to run 20 yards faster to get out infront of Levy on a sweep.
Dick Rosenthal {l Wrote}:The best part of the whole thing was watching the game with a group that included an FSU guy. He’s a really nice guy and he has been severely emotionally damaged by the last two seasons. When they scored he did not cheer. He just kept saying “Shit, we left you too much time.” I laughed and told him he had nothing to worry about—that our coach was terrified and that the gutlessness had flowed down to our players. On the kick off return he just kept chanting “Oh shit, oh no. Here it comes. Here it comes.” I laughed again and told him even if we somehow moved the ball 40 yards, there was no way BC would make a FG. After we dropped the easy 1st down pass, he was again utterly convinced that the next pass would be a dagger. I again laughed and said that was the ballgame—what little confidence AB had was gone based on his reaction and body language after the drop and we would not come close to making a 1st down. When the game ended, he was incredulous. He literally could not believe how poorly coached we were and how poorly we executed. He then purchased me a beer and commiserated over being saddled with an incompetent coach with no chance of getting rid of him for next year. It was just pure misery.
