Jimmy Hyams just said something I've been wanting to say since the middle of the game last night. Dobbs was not a threat on the zone read at all. This offense is useless if there is no threat of the QB keeping the ball on the zone read. Just blown away by that.
We've been saying this since the moron showed up and tried to use Worley in it. Neutering Dobbs actually neuters Hurd too. Botch and DeBord are just morons.
You have to love the best coaching staff in America blatantly refusing to play to its players strengths.
I understand hoping to play conservatively, but once you realize it is a ball game, unleash the offense.
Yep. These guys have their plan, and stick to it come hell or high water. Lyle's "best wins" have been games where his ass was getting kicked into his chest and the offense started playing backyard football, abandoning the game plan that got them down by 3 scores to begin with.
If they were dumb enough to install that offense for Worley to run, is it really that much of a shock.
Dobbs is part of the problem. B#tch's offense is great if you want to win 9-10 games in the MAC. Our "friends" down in Tuscaloosa seem to do quite well with middle of the road pro-style game managers. 2 completions longer than 15yds last night (one of which was for 16yds). Pathetic.
We have no chance. Seriously. Besides Jones we have three unbelievably terrible coaches on the offensive side. Debord, Mahoney and Azzanni are horrible. It's laughably bad.
You Lmost couldn't pick a group that bad if you were trying. No kidding. You couldn't blind draw that badly for absolute sure. You'd luck into at least one who isn't the worst in the conference.
