if the line is shaky, we can't run the ball, and you want to build some momentum in the passing game, throw more fricking quick slants. Stop throwing these bullshite screens/throws behind the LOS on every early down

We have the speedsters

You can’t if the timing is off and the QB is late with the throw.

Ohio State’s 1st TD yesterday was a shallow 1 yd drag to Jeremiah Smith. We could do that with a number of our receivers.

The bubble screens and swing passes are getting old

Nuss is constantly throwing the ball short and out of position when we try these which either leads to a pick, dropped pass, or receiver left hanging for a big hit

This program has no gameplans.....none.

They just go out there and se what happens. Look back from game 1 when we lost to FSU in the Dome 4 years ago....it HAS NOT CHANGED!

I like slants as well; however, they lead to interceptions if the timing is off.

Seam/inside post & screens are the only plays we can consistently execute.

If you can’t keep a defense off balance, they can just sit on a handful of keys. There’s no fixing this man. The Hail Mary is to rebuild the offense around MVB & lean on his ability to improvise with his legs to make the offense less predictable.

We ran slants yesterday. Nuss was late on every single one.

Also put the tailback behind the qb like virginia did against florida state. Gives the back better chance building speed and looking for best lane.

The slants were our best weapon before this weekend.

Did we ever throw 1?

I didn’t see every single snap of the game, but I don’t recall a single 1.

There was a time where on 3rd and 3 the slant was indefensible…

It’s getting to where it’s all Nuss can throw is bubble screens and short throws. I mean he can’t get it down the field at all

He was off on a few of the short throws as well unfortunately

Hard to throw slants when the deal drops 8 and only sends 3.

if our QB can't throw a fricking slant, we need a new QB
