I'm with you, to a degree.

OLine is in real trouble. They are not good.

TE is a position that we refuse to use to threaten defenses in any way. I don't even know if they are "good" , or not.

I KNOW that Dupree and maybe Dural are more talented than the UW receivers. It seems like we just don't do things to show their ability. UW receivers were put in positions to be wide open under our zone coverage.

We certainly are not creative, and we do NOTHING to challenge defenses to have to think or second guess what we might be doing.

Think about it...

As a D against us, you don't have to really worry about a tight end hurting you, you don't have to think about much zone read, you don't have to worry about mutiple receiver routes.

All you have to do is read VERY SiMPLE keys from our O.

The moving fullback. The wide receiver brought in on the edge of the line.

Absolute running plays, usually dives, no way out



frick this, nvm

The premise that we have a lot of talent and depth on offense is flawed. We don't.

They had opportunities to catch a lot more passes than they caught.

Well given that the OL isn't good.. the TEs are required to help block
