I think it would open up some options if Canada would get him in the slot and Guice in the backfield. Quit the jet sweep crap, play action off of Guice and let CEH hit the flats against a linebacker. 10+ yards every time

If the jet sweep is ran correctly with good instincts it works very well. The first one I saw that was a great call was with Chark last week. We had a few more that were good calls, I just don't like the timing of some of them. I think the timing is off and from what I hear the QBs have the option to call it or call it off, so it sounds like a lot of it is Etling picking safe plays.

Etling needs to kinda forget what he's seeing for a bit and just think like a defense would. If he did that this offense in the run game would perform much better IMO. What you see from a defense in the run game isn't always how the defense will react and most times it's the complete opposite, so he needs to just think like a defense.

When he thinks Guice should get the ball give it to Chark, throw them off. It's a sure run play, call a PA quick pass over the middle or in the flats. I think the offense will get going and I also believe the OL is much better than they've shown so for. I don't think it's what you see is what we will get. If they were executing then I would agree but they aren't.

Guice is a great back and anyone who thinks otherwise needs to get out of here. He's just had a bad line blocking for him so for and defense's have been keying on him and only him. That's exactly why we need to attack the defense knowing that is what they are being aggressive in. Fakes with quick decision plays will work on just about any team. LSU needs more of that in their offense period.

The new toss dive. I knew this was coming the minute they fired Miles. It was only a question of what the hated play would be. Had we hired Kiffen it would have been the WR screen.

There is always a bread and butter play, off of which other plays are designed for deception. The bread and butter play gets run a lot. What determines whether most fans are upset about it is if the offense is very productive.
