1-work more on Etlings long passes up the sidelines; our receivers are getting open but he has been consistently overthrowing them. when he learns to take a little off of them it will be a great help.

2-short yardage situations. it seems like we fail to make that one yard. when it's 3rd and 2 or 3 we make it; 3rd (or 4th) and 1 we get stuffed. Wisconsin stuffed us on both downs with one of the greatest RB's ever. it's obvious our OL (and other blockers) are not getting any daylight for the RB. most teams "telegraph" that play.

we are going to need those plays to win a game or two down the road.

We ran plays the players were comfortable and O Line was comfortable with

If we continue what we did yesterday, we just need more explosion from the passing game



Was so nice seeing the ball snapped with like 20 plus seconds on the clock.

Please don't use plays against Wisconsin when referring to improvements this offense needs...in case you didn't know we changed coaches and just put up over 600 yds on offense

Such an oddly defensive response to a pretty benign and accurate observation.

you do know we went for it on 4th and 1 last night and got stuffed. it didn't matter last night but against the big boys it could decide the game.

there is no comparison between Mizzou's front 7 and what we will face against UF, bama, Arky, ole miss or even a&m.

attention to detail is what will move this offense forward. aranda damn sure does that.

No team is perfect on 4th and 1 but the offense you saw last night should not be grouped with the one you saw under miles. Look at the vast improvement in 1 week. Give them a few more weeks and see how we look. Also Mizzou has good dline

I give up. you win.

i'm trying to make a specific statement about what I think is an important detail and you respond with generalizations. accuse me of grouping offenses. how can I fight that? you sound like my wife.

Apparently, it became ridiculous to suggest room for improvement as of last Sunday afternoon.

IMO, if Fournette were healthy, we would have converted those short yardage plays last night. He is the best power back on the team, as well as his other skills.

The overthrows are better than underthrows. He's been close.
Dupre is the laziest route runner I have ever seen. He has no fight for a ball either.

It would help if Etling learned to slide, his team-mates already know he's tough.
