Those numbers lean the way that I feel. Offensively we are not getting the job done and leaving the D on the field way too long.

We are #69 in total O nationally. Sweet.

But, but, but...its all the defenses fault. Its all CWM.

Thanks for posting the numbers for all to see David. Maybe that enlightens a few on the board. When the offense is going three and out all the time, the defense is going to falter, especially a yound defense.

I don't blame Cox for all of the offensive problems. Cox proved last year he is a capable QB. I do think his injury, the playcalling, and the lack of targets for Cox is the problem.

Our receivers are not getting open and when they do, they are dropping passes. I love Courtney Taylor...he is a playmaker. But if you guys will remember last season, he had a streak of dropping passes. That worries me since he is supposed to be a best receiver. He is good, don't get me wrong, but he does have a history of dropping passes also. If you will really think about it and remember, our most reliable receivers over the last two years have been our TEs, Cooper Wallace, Cole Bennett, Gabe MacKenzie and Tommy Trot, and then Brad Lester coming out of the backfield. CT is our leading receiver stat wise, but our TEs have been more reliable with making their catches. Heck, Gabe MacKenzie is a third leading receiver statistically!

If we are going to rely on Cox, with his injury, then our O-line has going to have to go the extra mile and our receivers are going to have to get better at getting open. Our defense is going to have to step up, regardless how long they are on the field. Florida will eat us alive if we can't score points. We can't rely on a defensive game against Florida like we did with LSU. Florida is going to put the points on the board.

WDE!!!

Unless we can start throwing the deep ball (say 10 to 25 yard patterns) everyone is going to stack the box, ala 2003 all over again. I'm not just talking about a catch then yards after catch, I'm talking about a legitimate 15 to 25 yard throw and catch. How passing game is horrible right now!! We've got the running game there, we have got to balance it out better.

We did throw the ball deep against Arky. We did it twice at least and one ball was dropped. If your freakin' receivers can't get open, how do you expect to throw deep. We all would like to see the deep ball more. I bet Borges would too. But, Cox showed Satuday he can throw deep, our receivers, except for one, has not shown they can get open. Besides CT, I think Tristan Davis has the speed to get the seperation needed for deep passes, but we seem to not be using him much in the passing game for some reason.

Thanks for posting the stats up. I didn't realize how far behind we are in almost every categories. We have a lot of work left to do..

I agree ranger. I just wish that we didn't go away from it so soon after a miss. Sometimes a miss/drop can have the same effect on the D. When a D sees it almost complete it still causes them to stop bunching up on the los just like when it's completed. If the pass was there, then someone was out of posistion and it gets the D to thinking. One deep ball every once in awhile doesn't keep the D honest. Or the other side is Arky who didn't have to throw, because we couldn't stop them with 8-9 in the box.

Oh man, it's not often someone is quick like grease lightning

But yeah, Tristan is like a jack of all trade, I'd like to see him back on offense too, at the very least he should be returning punts!

and 5 days to accomplish it...

Tristan Davis plays both sides of the ball when needed. He has actually been the target receiver for a couple of passes this year, but both passes were incomplete.
