Our refusal to throw to the tight end is bizarre and maddening


Yep. I think Arky's two TE's had more catches vs us in one game than all our TE's combined for the season.

He also needs to learn the difference between then and than.

Jacory Washington is regretful.

Q: Who's the Patriot's best receiver?
A: Gronkowski

Q: Why?
A: Because throwing to the TE works.

There you go.

Our tightends should be used more in the passing game.

Then again they had some serious drops this year as well

That's exactly what we need: more dumb laws

Maybe two?

FTR, Eddie Fuller dropped a TD pass like two plays before he caught the earthquake pass.

Les's inconsistent tendency to 'doghouse' players for prolonged periods is simply misguided at best. Competitors make mistakes - all of 'em. They also relish the opportunity to redeem themselves.

Oh well. There's next season DeSeam. You had a catch your Fr season. Maybe you'll get another next year.

Did he say we need A&M's offense? No. He said an offense. One that is competent. And every title winning team has one.

Oh so he meant if we can get Miles to put a competent offense next to Miles very competent defense we will compete for NCs. That I can agree with.

Great. He might play a couple downs in the Arkansas game next year.

More specifically, we need good quarterback play. We have good offensive skill players for days. Every year have future NFL players at WR and RB.

It's very telling that outside of Mett's 2013 season, we've had mediocre or worse QB play every year since 2007. We need to find a way to pass competently without having an NFL caliber QB on the roster.

Or considering leaving himself, possible. I mean really, he was a TOP TE along with Jacory Washington. They were clearly told they were going to catch passes, because neither one would have come here knowing they would block.

Smith has caught 4 balls in 2 years. Wouldn't blame him for second for finding a better path to the NFL. LSU is a great path to the league, for almost any position except TE.

Message Posted by SabiDojo Catch the ball, DeSean. K thx


How about they throw the ball to the TE more than twice a season, and maybe they won't be in total shock when a pass comes their way, and catch it. It becomes second nature to catch the ball when they actually try to throw to you a few times a game.

I was joking, really. I'm not blind. I know our TE's are criminally underutilized.

I think you over-counted by 3. Need to verify.
