You forgot 2 factor in 1 block field goal, 1 blocked extra point, 1 interception, 1 touchdown drop, and 1 or 2 interceptions, 150 yards of penalties and still got 700 yards and 47 pts. You gotta look at life as a glass half full my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you please stop continually using this as a rebuttal to the offense not performing as expected for some? Instead, why don't you create a thread the day we have zero dropped passes that should've been caught. I won't wait up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were definitely vanilla the first couple weeks, but I think we've seen the offense released from their cage. No ******** from me about the offense this week. NO its till vanilla, which is fine. The difference is, they changed the plays to resembles more set ups from last season. They seemed to figured out a offense designed around speed in Florida is pretty **** easy to run. Now once they unleash the offense look out, this is the play caller before he came to Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soooooo, take out the dropped passes from my last statement and we still scored 47 points and close to 700 yards of offense despite all of the OTHER self inflicted mistakes and almost record breaking amount of penalties I listed in my post.

Give me 700 yds and 47 points every game, I'll take my chances at the CCG win. I really don't care how it happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of yardage, I would hope we could all agree that 47 points is more than acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He attacked the edges far more than we did the first two games and we attacked vertically more as well. We definitely mixed in a lot more misdirection and counter type run plays. This caused the defense to have to defend the whole field instead of the just inside the tackle box and 12yds deep. The ends and backside backers also had to stay home because of the counter action and misdirection which slowed their flow to the play side. All of the above helps the O-line as well as it makes the defense play a bit slower and on their heels. This wasn't the case our first two games as defenses could play faster and more down hill because there was less to honor backside and on the edges with the game plans we used......

There is a correlation between this offense taking a little more time and the defense playing better this year. It definitely helps but the guys are tackling, especially in the open field. They are stopping the runs up the middle on first down. Really, the big complaint I have about the team is special teams. I just don't think there is a good reason to be letting up all these blocked kicks. Is it the long snapper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
