Get off of Miles and get on the WR's that have bricks for hands and the inability to get open in space. Mett is a six game starter...what are you people expecting from him at this point? Six games!! He's put the ball in player's hands and they don't take care of the ball.


Can agree with a lot of that. My problem has been the offensive game plan as a whole. When we have looked good this year it has only been because we were Goliath against David's little brother. Now we cant even muster any offensive continuity because of the totally predictable play calling.

THE PROBLEM ISN'T MILES OR HIS OFFENSE.


When you are down late in the game and you have to punt after failing to convert a 3rd and 4 with a run up the gut, you deserve to have a little criticism. The offensive line should know who to block but time and time again there are always a play or two when Hurst isn't blocking ANYONE and he lets the blitzing guy go through. Now you can blame the OL, but you can also blame the guy who's supposed to correct those same mistake that keep happening! Which IMHO makes more sense!!1

Dropped passes, not executing third down plays and not protecting the ball at a crucial point in the game. Not executing on third down kills momentum in the game.


Pretty hard to convert 3rd downs when the entire country knows the same 10 plays we run.

Show me where I said that. I said problem number one is the Oline. In fact, I list several issues. Try reading again.

Okay, so Miles calls perfect games, you're just throwing every player under the bus.

Good to see you post here Les.

Arent we supposed to be "deep" enough to just "plug" some stud in when the one in front of them is injured? Where is all of that "vaunted" depth we have been hearing about these last few years? All we talk about is who is injured and how "lost" the folks are when they are replacing the ones injured...

I'm pretty sure this is just a well thought out trolling.

OLine has been decimated by injuries this year. Our Oline issues are problem NUMBER ONE and, unfortunately, injuries can't be coached up.

Funny...

Our defense lost the Thorpe Award Winner, the Bednarik Award Winner, a 1st Round NFL DT, a starting LB to grades, and a 3-year staring safety to the NFL and they still manage to be one of the best defenses in the nation.

Maybe coaching DOES have something to do with it...

It's not Miles fault instead it's the players for not executing, well who prepares the players? That would be the 4 million dollar man buddy!

Last year we had a 15+ turnover ratio and our defense and Special teams scored A LOT and created short fields. This year, not so much.

I take it you were satisfied with the Arkansas, Georgia, and Alabama games last year? Because i remember our offenses sucking pretty good those games only to see our defense and special teams bail us out on two of those. They aren't doing that this year.

Yep. I never thought Blue would make such a difference, but look how much our offense has struggled since he went down.

It was much easier to call plays when the defense is forcing a sick number of turnovers. With all the talent that LSU has, there has to be a way to move the football.

Look at the first drive then look at the rest of the game. What happened?
