WR's running free... Question for people who know X's & O's

Coley offense is bubble screens and random isolation routes from random alignments. The only genuine route concept I've seen him use regularly is the smash concept (vertical stretch, Cover 2 beater) which got Waters a TD against UF in 2013 but UF was in man coverage anyway. The smash concept is a Jimbo staple.

I do like the way Coley features the TE with lots of option routes -stick, seam, or flat routes. I could be wrong but it looks like we used the mesh concept in the red zone on the Dobard TD [video=youtube;0_lMbyesCqI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_lMbyesCqI[/video]

, so perhaps Coley has been watching Chip Kelly film. Kaaya would be a surgeon in a Chip Kelly offense.

This is the issue I've been harping on. If I'm a Safety playing against our offense, I breathe a little easier. And, that's pretty much the opposite of what you want a Safety to feel. Doesn't mean we won't hit some big shots, nor does it mean we can't do well. It just means you're likely failing to produce consistency and will struggle against zone. Zones generally need to be busted by route combinations.

We'll see, probably starting against Nebraska, if he's evolved.

I pray he's evolved LuCane, no reason for us to be so elementary in our route combos with the talent we have. We shall see come Nebraska if he's made improvements.

We played Bethune! We're not opening the playbook for BETHUNE! You get pretty vanilla stuff against this caliber of team or did we all forget that?

That's what I'm hoping but history says we saw what we're going to get for the rest of the season

That's all we can do. I take no real criticism from that game. Show me what we got at Cincinnati. Show me against Nebraska. All out warfare against the noles!
 
Go look at the routes on that Dobard TD. Who's supposed to be open?

If Dobard doesn't push that defender out of the way then there's nobody to throw to.

Why wouldn't you run something behind those mesh routes?
