Possible reason why offense passes just deep downfield
Posted on 10/4/15 at 9:44 pm

All of the passes called seem to be go routes or passes to the wide receiver. There hasnt been many intermediate routes, bubble screens, slants, or wheel routes to the RBs. We have played weak defenses so
we really havent needed to throw the ball much. What if Cam Cameron is just running a vanilla offense until we REALLY need to keep the opposing defenses guessing.
Nobody knows why the passing game is lackluster, but maybe it could be that Cam Cameron wants to hide his cards until we really need to show different formations. What do you guys think?

I want to believe in the secret playbook. I really do.

What's the explanation for going vanilla against State then?

It's just the most uncomfortable passing offense of all time

Our recivers have no swag

I think we've heard this excuse before, and I think it's bullshite.
Cam has been here long enough to know that there is no secret playbook. We will live and die by the run.

Easy answer:
Teams pull the safety up for run support. Our number 1 receiver better be able to beat man coverage on the fly route.
Travin didn't get much separation from the EMU corner

the 'hiding out offense til bama' excuse has been run for years and years until it's realized that who we are after 4 games is who we actually are.

Because we knew how they had lost from the previous year. They were no way the same team and it would have been pointless showing our formations that early

This is possible. The offense was very vanilla against EMU - there were none of the new wrinkle plays we saw in earlier games - shovel passes, jet sweeps - completely non-creative play calling. It's obviously all by design. Not sure why our WR weren't catching balls they should have been catching though. That is worrisome. Harris was tossing some nice balls. It just feels like we can't put everything together.

1st game of the year on the road with a QB that had 1 start under his belt that went comically wrong.
I wish people would get that it's ok to have a dominant run game. I don't think most fans get how creative the blocking schemes are in our run game. No one wants to give this staff credit for that.

Not until Bama. Show some in SC game, then Florida show more, etc

2008.
Jarrett Lee.
16 Interceptions (6 returned for TD's)
That is the ONE and only reason.

I think it's possible. Cam does not want to show to much early;especially to Alabama. That is the game that usually decides the west. As for Miss. St., it was the first game and the long passes have less risk.

Ummm, we run all of those different route combinations. Because of our running game, we see a lot of 1 high safety looks, which gives the read to throw the deep ball. But we've thrown slants, bubbles, intermediate crossing routes, etc.

this sort of run/pass ratio has not won a national title in the modern (BCS) era. that's why people are worried

I know we've run different pass plays, but im just trying to say we are saving them/ other formations for better teams

Don't over think this. It's only to keep the safeties from cheating up. Miles only wants the power running game.
