Nothing particularly new, but…

quote:

DEFENSE: real weak up the middle. seems to be a
lack of talent at DT and MLB


Beckwith in for Welter. DT not as bad as some say. Try younger guys, e.g., Neal. Other defenses changes: more Adams/Jefferson, less Martin. More Debo.

quote:

OFFENSE: OL is lost. blocking by other positions
weak. therefore, we can't run the ball.

Simplify blocking schemes. Spread it out a bit (see below).

quote:

QB has no touch on short to mid passes,
can't execute screens or quick slants

I like Jennings, but more Harris

quote:

PLAY CALLING: nothing works. can't run, can't
run the kind of plays to get
the opposing defense off your arse.
passing game not good enough to
sustain drives

Again, more Harris. More shotgun/pistol. Spread them out. We can still run out of that formation. Also, more Fournette less Jennings running the ball.

The answer to how to solve the problem is to acknowledge that the DL problems are not going to get solved this year. The good teams are going to run up the gut on us. If we stack the box to help stop the run, we put our corners and safeties on an island and even that may not work. We'll have to outscore opponents like Aub, Ark, Bama, Tamu, etc...

What changes on offense do you think are necessary to outscore everyone in order to win? My thought is we should go with the spread and the guy who throws the ball better, but who knows, maye run, run, pass, punt will somehow get it done.
