BigWhiskey91 632 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Coming into the season I thought one of the best hires and possible most underrated hire Malzahn made was picking up Al Borges as an offensive analyst. His collective experience alone exceeds our current offensive staff so having that knowledge especially with his passing concepts was going to be huge. It seems that his role as an analyst must be pretty relaxed or his input maybe isn't being acknowledged or perhaps I am hoping for too much from that role. But you have to wonder what his thoughts on the last two weeks performances has been... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,789 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 He probably thinks we gonna get our QB killed if somebody doesn't start coaching the OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburn2Eugene 2,317 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Borges is my man crush this season. After watching last night, it's clear his input isn't being listened too, at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, Gus and to a greater extent his man buddy Herb Hand deserved what Kiffen got with the Raiders. They both deserved to be fired immediately after the game. And should of found had to find their own way home. Gus, Herb, and Kodi have stolen enough money from my beloved Auburn. Gus has lost his genius status. OLs under hand give up record breaking sack numbers, and Kodi is in over his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnphan 6,050 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I am guessing he is wondering how the hell someone can run the same offense and not evolve it to correct all the deficiencies that defensive coordinators have figured out. Actually the common fan as well. Pretty sure my dog knows where the ball is going on each play too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigsixfive 328 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Malzahn didn't hire Borges. Jay Jacobs did, and after he told Malzahn there was not room to hire any more assistants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGLEATON 1,244 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Think he's thinking we need to break Malik Willis in next week as a plan B (maybe a plan A) if we want to try to get ready to run THIS offense against the better teams later... I think Stidham is a bit rusty, slow / hesitant making decisions and rattled / not comfortable yet... and had NOT faced a D like last night (or SEC D's yet).. Not all Stidhams fault either Oline... Wr... but most of all as mentioned by anyone watching the game except for Gus the poor O game plan and lack of quick intermediate passes... lack of adjustments at all. Will Stidham get better? maybe... he may end up being incredible before the end of the year, as the O line /Tega / WRs could end up being very good too... or they just may not develop like we hope... The thing I'm finally completely over it about is that Gus NEVER has a viable plan B... and NEVER seems to make or be able to make adjustments to the game plan... EVEN at half time.

Gus doesn't believe he needs a contingency plan, his original plan is the best. It is amazing how well his scripted first series goes (even last night) and the rest of the game is garbage. He suspends his backup QB and doesn't have a viable option in case his starting QB struggles (shades of UGA last year). We needed to break in Malik Willis as soon as SW was suspended, but wait, we can't burn his red shirt. The PLAN was to red shirt Willis and we can't go against the plan.

MIGMAN 16 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Watch Stidham's Baylor tape. Guessing his average time before release is about 2 seconds. This is a scheme problem, not a QB or O-line problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
