Some Monday Morning Perspective

It will be interesting to see what adjustments are made. The fast play has lead to turnovers, and is putting unecessary pressure on the defense. The offense has been vanilla, so making it more vanilla would not be the answer. How this team reacts this weekend after the last two weeks will tell me everything i need to know about Golesh as a head coach.

 

He definitely needs to make some changes. The defense can’t handle how fast the offense gets off the field. I’m concerned that at this point in the season we are not adding plays or wrinkles, but reducing plays. I hope I’m wrong, but that doesn’t seem to be a good sign.

Talk is easy. Need to see it on the field. Next play is a nice slogan, but the next play can't exactly look like the last play. 

Also a turn around needs to come sooner then later. We can't have two more years of this and expect to still be in consideration for realignment.

I don't see how we can get vanilla we run like 3 plays...maybe more hb dives are in order.

Just tired of watching another first year coach fumble around figuring out what works.

Q set passing records under that offense but I'm not sure BB's there yet ....

Q did but he had way better backs with Johnson and Mack. 

Think losing Battie hurt the most of all the players gone....we could really use him now in run game. This rb group lacks explosive play potential.  Joiner I'd like to see get more touches when healthy.

How would you simply an already predictable and simple offense but then state you  not going to run a vanilla  offense? From every game I have watched the offense is very vanilla and nothing compared to what we saw at UT with him or current. It seems we are playing fast just to play fast without an plan of attack except run with the qb , run up the middle with the rb, occasionally throw a screen, and most of the passes are deep balls. The other stuff he said wasn't bad. Do you think it is  first year oc is struggling to figure out what plays to plays fast or the players can't run more than limited playbook and play fast? If we can't play fast, I think we should slow the tempo at times and call plays that give us the best chance to get yards or a touchdown.   WE already lack a short and midfield passing attack. WE don't use a lot of misdirection or motion plays already, lack a lot of outside runs, and not many creative play designs to fool the other teams. IT seems we are doing less and less on offense with the play calls and designs. It feels like the opposite way to run the ball up the middle a lot to slow and control the clock under Strong/Gilbert now we are just running the ball up the middle a lot to play fast.

Very complex. No wonder he wants to simplify things

This game is a big win this weekend if they can get it

I'm wondering if Powell is completely healthy, too. Maybe I'm totally off base but he almost seems like the lightning to Wright's thunder. I'm not sure he gets caught on that long run NW had but was caught from behind ...
