This. We attempted to practice short passing game early but had drops by Quinn, Diarse, Neighbors (dont get me started) then we totally quit trying. WR screens need to be a big part of our offense for the following reasons:

1. We have very talented WRs that can run after catch.
2. We have an avg at best QB that needs easy throws.
3. They are basically extended handoffs so they still wear out defenses like running plays.
4. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, It allows us to utilize our superior players.

It also spreads the defense and opens up the running game...what our staff wants to do anyway so why not do the things that make it easier to do so

My first thought was that last night's game was wasted.

Jennings really needs to work on trusting more receivers than just Dural. He needs a lot of work on his intermediate passing routes. He's not going to get away with this type of passing game when we get to UF and Auburn. Not a chance.
