Eric Morris is a joke. We should be waking up to the news of his firing. Jerod Mosley needs to fix this or he needs to go with him. I bit the bullet and bought club tickets this year, and I won’t be doing it again. Complete apathy is about to hit this program hard.
As some have mentioned before, it feels like a gimmicky offense. Tons of WR screens and short passes allowing for YAC. They use an up tempo style so they can have more plays to run and inflate the stats even more. Problem is, we don’t have good, quick, fast WRs. They’re terrible at blocking screens and they drop too many damn balls. EM’s play calls are simple to figure out. Run screens/short passes to the LOS on 1st & 2nd downs, run the ball to the back of an OL on 3rd & long, go for it on 4th down with another screen.
I can’t get over how the offense just dies all of a sudden. As soon as they lose (or can’t establish) a rhythm they’re obsolete for an entire quarter and a half. (Ex: Memphis when the defense actually held and made them go 3 and out multiple times before the flood gates opene; Army when they couldn’t do anything the whole game; ECU and the abysmal 3rd quarter; heck even against Tulane they were only up by like 3 before the end of the half and got super lucky with multiple short field positions due to mistakes).
The statistics for the offense feels hollow. Super explosive but no capability to sustain a slow, clock bleeding drive. Which means short time of possession and longer time for the defense to be out there. I guess live by the air raid, die by the air raid. (And they’ve been consistently dying)
