There are some things that can occur to make him efficient, but I don't trust this offensive staff...I just don't. I feel the same way. But I do not think he is as advertised in terms of being any kind of dual threat QB, at least no more than SW is. He didn't throw any picks but he has to learn to get rid of the ball quicker, internal clock is not there. I think he has potential but I am not sure we have a coach who can develop that potential.

OnthePlains 2,014 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 So if Jacobs survives and hires our next coach and stays true to form then our next head coach will be....Trooper Taylor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homersapien 11,367 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I figured we'd lose a close one after we settled for the 2nd field goal, but I didn't expect that to be the extent of our offensive production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to run short pass plays against top defenses. Their was no one open to throw to and he didn't have the time for them to run deep down field. End of story it wasn't his fault. Problem is he wasn't very accurate with his deep ball and the few times he was accurate, he had too much air under the ball. Also, just an observation, this probably ad more to do with the Vanilla playcalling but, when the team needs 5 yards to gain and you're getting on average 0 yards after the catch, maybe it's a good idea to throw to the chains rather than short of them.

I do not care if he throws at the band, the cheerleaders or whoever is out of bounds. 3rd and 10 is much easier to make than 3rd and 28. Maybe we come back and have some decent offense down the road. We will be facing some good teams in the west that are playing some good offense....MSU, Ole Miss, turds, LSU. Right now, Arky & TAMU are the only teams in the west I feel confident about winning. Ole Miss & MSU should win... 5-3 is looking more like the reality of this season with an 8-4 or 9-3. I hope in a few weeks I am proved so wrong! Doc it feels like another 8-5 year. I hate it man . So much talent on this team. Damn it's so disappointing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OU really stickin it to OSU... that's what an offense looks like. yes, they have a good quarterback... but the complex, creativity is what blows me away... compared to gussy pooh's o. i just want a little bit of that! we have the players, damnit!!! That's my biggest gripe, other than oline play. If other teams can teach multiple formations and sets.....why can't we? We don't even need a playbook. We only run maybe five different runs and five different passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything he should've been used on a reverse...like maybe OMac. We needed to use another RB at times to spell KP. Miller got no run. We were determined to force KP no matter if he was 100% or not.

It worked at lesser schools with a pass first scheme because the speed on D wasn't as prevalent in those leagues. Gus can't adjust. Confounding really. And he MUST adjust, especially when it appears that his numerous peers on the opposite side know his too-easily revealed hand or Hand? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. It's scary that he struggles with that at this level. Dabo isn't the smartest, but he seems to have common sense. Gus can't coach after his scripted plays run out.

Cooper 10 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I agree the offense is Pop Warner. Gus isnt a coaching guru. I want to know who Auburn could get as a head coach willing to go against Saban. Gonna be a short list. We could have hired Petrino,. Could have kept Tubb, could have hired Briles as an OC, could have went after Spurrier, as long as Jacobs and Dye are holding the strings we gonna look like we chasing our tails. Btw Petrino is my guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
