Ccs wants to win with easy runs up middle and a few easy passes..that worked vs bad teams but vs good it wont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbert took a dormant high school program in football and made them contenders. It's not like high school football in most states - Texans take high school football pretty seriously in these parts. I'm just wondering if he's being bottled up too much by a head coach set in his ways? Just my two cents... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The run game will always be a part of the offense even if it isn't be effective because that is what keeps the defense honest. And truthfully in the second half the run game was actually working pretty well. If it was up to the majority we would have passed it 70+ times and had 4 ints and about 10 sacks. Now here is what I would like to see. Change about 5 playcalls a game. Give me 1-2 rb screens and 2-3 qb sprint out run/pass options on key 3rd/4th and shorts. That's it. Keep it simple. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We punted 6 times in the first half and 3 times in the second half. Want to guess how many of those had a run up the middle on 1st down? 3. That's right. I'll wait while you check the game log. Of the other 6? 2 were outside sweeps which failed miserably for a loss of 5 each time. And the other 4 were either incomplete or sacks.

Selective memory is a wonderful thing when trying to prove yourself right..... where was i trying to prove anything? It's charlie strong's quote. 33% of the plays were runs up the middle according to your numbers. not an insignificant amount. rough look, 22 runs on first down for a total of 15 yards. 34 first down plays 65% runs for .68 ypc 2 turnovers on downs both runs for no gain Edited October 30, 2017 by Bull94 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to hammer on Charlie's quote we would have to go back and rewatch every first down play and see what defense they were in. I'm sure we ran it a couple times when they loaded the box, we also passed a few times when they dropped 8 into coverage. As far as your stat...the two biggest of those losing plays were runs to the outside. Something people on here had been clamoring for. And your stat is skewed because sacks are counted as running plays in college football as well. The best thing about a run up the middle is the limited downside which can kill a drive. We tried getting creative (outside run, pass) on 1st down and 6 times it failed us. That will make an OC stop getting fancy on 1st down real fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
