Scoop hit the proverbial nail and I've been saying it all year. I don't understand why or how these coaches could be so ignorant to not see where this philosophy would lead. But Miles was has got to do something, just do something Lesticiles that is all we are asking.

WR's can't catch, bad and predictable situational play calling, poor clock management, injury's on the offensive line, and Blue's injury

1) we can't block
2) WRs don't catch consistently

The offense's scheme is not ideal and the play calling is not that great either. I agree in the SEC you have to have the ability to adjust your gameplan otherwise you end up too predictable, it allows the defense to get confident and comfortable. If you never take advantage of that, you're going to run straight into their aggressive strengths every time.
But even if the scheme and the play calling doesn't take advantage of any situation, there are still plays that could have been made. Florida had our offense figured out by the 3rd or 4th drive. But Mett was still delivering passes to open receivers every now and then. At least 3-4 passes that could have been caught and converted for 1st down.
A few of those conversions and that big play by OBJ that slipped away could have easily changed the Florida defense's mindset. Execution is biggest thing right now, gotta feel lucky that one of the things to fix is something as simple as catching the ball.

The OBJ thing was a bull shite call in my opinion. He did fumble the ball but the lay was blown dead. I can see if they gave the ball back to LSU at the original line of scrimmage but that ball was not recovered by anyone in my opinion. I think that play broke the LSU teams back for that Saturday. After that happened they just said frick it.

Agreed. Game deciding play right there.

That doesn't matter. It's only not reviewable if it was blown dead because of forward progress.

lolwut? How do you justify just nullifying a play that was a catch 40 yards downfield followed by about 15 more yards of running with the ball by the WR?
The ball was clearly a fumble that was missed in real time and reviewed and the call was reversed to the correct call. Bottom line, they got that call right for sure.

What's wrong with the offense? It is not very good.
What do we do? Get someone in here who knows how to make it good. I don't care to learn everything about it - just fix it. That's why the staff makes so much damn money.

It's not Bama scoops fault. Only Alabama fans factor in blown calls to their credit.

Why can't we move the ball?
When asked his viewpoint on our WR's inability to catch a ball after the UF debacle, the current head coach of LSU was quoted as saying: "I don't know." I think that is his most honest answer ever. And it could likely be spread over any and all such questions about LSU's struggling offense.
"Why?"
"I don't know."
ipso facto

The QB situation is an ongoing problem so it has to be coaching. LSU has top recruits in that position but they never seem to improve. Also, the offensive schemes seem to reamin the same and you just cant do that in this league, you have to be able to change things up.

Better pass protection and throw the ball past twenty yards more than once a game.

No execution by the WRs and OL in the simplest of scenarios. I question how much talent we really have available at the moment in those units.
The coaches have tried to make slight adjustments like bringing in extra blockers (RBs) to help keep Mett from being destroyed. They have also had pass plays with a lot of different potential WRs. Our main guys just aren't catchin the ball and their is no excuse. The OL atleast has the excuse of having injury issues.
I don't see how Mett could be considered the any real problem when he is getting tons of pressure and has several key drops every game by the WRs. The guy isn't doing that bad.
If the OL and WRs executed the current gameplan atleast half way decently(not a lot to ask from a supposed talented bunch) then the offense would be rolling and perceptions would be completely different.

Dropped passes. That alone should have brought home a win for us last week.

We don't execute. That's what Miles says anyway.
