If the car's engine is in flames you don't tell the kids in the back seat to get over it because you're 20 minutes from Disney World and they should be happy..

Except we are sitting in the stands watching.  There is no alternative action we can take.

I get the sense you all feel like a bunch of Cassandra's.  Click the link before you get offended by that reference.

You may be right but there is little we can do.  We will all find out and we all hope you are wrong of course.

6.7 per carry for the entire 2016? That's insanely high..

Yes but don't forget that at times last year the only thing stopping the run plays was the end zone.

I think it is normal for "Fans" to critique their team, irregardless of how good they are. I am sure Alabama fans critique their teams, if nothing else to compare them to previous seasons. 

All in all, I think most are happy with the coaching and final outcomes of the games.

I think a lot of the complaining is due to the success of UCF. Right now they are better and people are nervous. 

UCF in undefeated against better teams than we're undefeated against. The better team will be decided on BF ...

LOL, you are right.  I can see it now:  "We better clean that up for when we play the Atlanta Falcons."

That's a function of we're running more. We're at 5.5 yards per carry this year versus 6.7 last year. Also we pass for 38 yards less per game this season.

Thanks for doing the research. Saved me time but was thinking that passing yardage was down this year.

I would add, I think the passing yards are down because those bubble screens/check down passes to TE/RB are no longer in the offense. It also would explain why the passing percentage is down. 

Basically, if the reads aren't there, Flowers takes off. There is no longer an outlet valve. I saw where Flowers has actually more run attempts at this point in the season that last year.

I think people can’t enjoy this season so far because with the way we’ve played, we are just waiting for that first loss.

Um. i wasn't aware that you were not allowed to discuss sports on a sports site. And I know who Cassandra was. I graduated from USF. Twice.
