Your whole point was that Miami was at the bottom of the conference in rushing. I showed you the teams who were at the top. They all sucked. Clemson was the only good team but they ranked 62nd in rushing offense. That’s not why they were good. Alabama played in the championship game last year...

NC state and Virginia both had worse rushing offenses in the ACC last year. But who was really good at running the ball last year? The top rushing teams were Syracuse, UNC, Louisville, VT, Duke, FSU and GT. A bunch of teams that finished at the bottom of the standings. Maybe you’re overvaluing...

If we don’t get our passing offense fixed, we’re not beating middle of the road ACC teams, let alone good teams. This offense requires the offensive line to be dominant for it to be successful. So far we’ve dominated an FCS team and played so-so against a 3-9 G5 team. I’ve watched the last three...

Everyone wants to win. It’s not about how it looks, it’s that we’re not going to beat the good teams running this offense. At least not with this current roster. Maybe in the future after a few years or recruiting and development. Even then we saw what happened to Michigan when they tried to...

If you take away all the bad plays, all that’s left are the good ones.

So what have you seen that makes you think the receivers are the worst part of the offense? I’ve seen guys getting open and catching everything thrown to them so far. If Mallory can’t play then let’s stop using two tight ends all the time. I’m fine with that

They could probably run the wish bone and beat most teams but why? Why make it harder for your offense than it needs to be? They don’t use the spread because they don’t have options. They use their systems because it’s the best way for them to score as much as possible. It’s much easier to score...

I guess we’ll find out just how strong that offensive line is when we try to force it down the throat of real teams. Not sure how the weakest link in our offense is the receivers. But CIS gonna CIS. I haven’t seen a single receiver drop a pass yet in two games despite being told they can’t...

There are ways to transition without sacrificing today for the sake of tomorrow. Let’s just use the example that say we have talent at running back but our line is still average. There’s ways to run the ball that don’t require you to line up and play in a phone booth. One of the easiest ways to...

This. It’s not that I want our offense to just pass the ball every down and abandon the run. I want our offense to play to the strength of our players. I understand that Mario and Gattis want to be more run heavy and I totally agree that a balanced offense is the best offense but we just don’t...

Jaylan Knighton, the guy who go almost all the carries in the second half of last year (when we couldn’t run the ball) averaged 3.4. Honestly, a good rushing team shouldn’t average less than 4 yards against Southern Miss. That’s not what I’d consider “perfectly well”. It was adequate against a...

You know what else scares me? They tried to get the passing game going in the first half but TVD was indecisive and the line couldn’t pass block. In the second half they took control by just running the ball right at USM and added a little bit of gadget plays to get the offense firing. Now...

Those are weak numbers against P5 opponents? You do realize we only had 177 yards against Southern Miss right?

Wrong. 176 vs App State 322 vs CCSU 169 vs Virginia 157 vs UNC 174 vs GT Last year we averaged 3.8 yards per carry as a team. We averaged 3.5 yards per carry against USM on Saturday How much are we going to average against a real team?

This is my issue. It’s great to have the best OL in the country but if your offense requires that to be successful, you’re just Larry Coker/Rob Chudzinski

I’m just saying let’s hold off on making a final judgement until after we start playing real teams. We’ve seen this show before. Back in 2016 we started the season 3-0 against FAMU, FAU and App State. We averaged about 500 yards and 50 points per game. Our first game against a P5 opponent, we...

We have played an FCS team and a terrible g5 team. Everyone’s offense converts third downs against teams like that. I’m still waiting to see how they handle someone when they’re not more talented at every single position by a mile.

It’s a system that TVD is clearly struggling with. Maybe a simplified passing game would help our team out.

Watch some games in person. You can actually see the receivers running downfield uncovered that the TV cameras don’t show. It was the same thing last week. Everyone in the crowd is yelling and pointing at the guys that are wide open but TVD doesn’t see them for whatever reason.

Maybe if your offense struggles to score 10 points against Southern Miss, you should open the playbook. That whole purposely conservative game plan is fine if you’re moving the ball up and down the field with a basic playbook but if you’re struggling, you need to start using some of those...
