2013 was an anomaly you have to see that
No, it really wasn't. Sure that was the peak since 2007, but we have have plenty of good offense and QB play.
All anyone ever wants to talk about from 2011 is 1/9 but we had very very good offensive numbers and QB play in 2011 outside of those games against perhaps one of the best defenses of all time.
Even in 2012, our offense overcame some early season struggles with OL and WR play to have great passing numbers and high scoring wins down the stretch. Even against Bama our offense and specifically the passing game was extremely effective.
2008 is known for the pick sixes by a QB that was clearly thrown in over his head, but our offense still moved the ball well through the air and put up over 30 points a game. It certainly wasn't an offense that fits the "Miles will never change" narrative.
The offense has changed plenty over the years, and the stupid catchphrase about Miles being stubborn and unwilling to change just shows how uninformed the people are that constantly make it.
There are plenty of legitimate concerns about our offense but Miles being some power hungry maniac that only allows a team to run run pass every single drive isn't one of them.

IMO that's the offense that CAUSED the "Miles will never change" narrative.

Nailed it.
2008 looks bad because of the pick 6s but the concepts were pretty solid. We moved the ball well when Lee didn't throw it to the other team.
2011 was solid.
2012 took a bit to get in the groove but CLEARLY improved over the season.
2013 was good.
2014 was pretty bad.
2015 had some flashes. We ran the ball well at times and the passes were there but Harris just couldn't make the throws all the time. He was erratic. Honestly, I don't think it was necessarily scheme. Harris just shite the bed 2nd half of the season.
Maybe it takes someone like Mett to run the offense, IDK. Regardless, the throws have been there for Harris. shite, look at the Moo State, Auburn, SCAR, and Florida games. Harris didn't light the world on fire but he had 64%+ completions and didn't turn it over. He ran the ball well when needed in those games too. Even factoring in the games sense then, I don't think he's necessarily a bad QB. He's got the talent he just hasn't harnessed it.
Ultimately, QB development is part of Cam's job. In terms of scheme I don't think he has been terrible...he just hasn't developed Harris into what we need.
