Totally agree Eye...I think it also has something to do with the personnel of the receivers. It's well-documented we don't have the tall, rangy wide-out who can stretch the field. Even worse, we don't have a reliable tight end, which was so crucial in our last dependable offense (07, Richard Dickson). We may have started something in terms of the staff realizing we can't run the football 60-65% of the time, but now we just need the players to complete it. Not saying we don't have some talented receivers because we do, but none of them fit the billing that hopefully Leslie, or Seals-Jones could bring. I can't wait for DeSean Smith to get here as well.

I agree though, I know it's an i-formation, but the one-two man route combos are terrible. I think our main issue is the fact we can't get to the middle of the field because it's full of defensive players to stop our run, so every pass has to be to the outside or over the top.

What a young QB needs is something that LSU doesn't have...a true offensive coordinator. This makeshift system they have now was ok for last year, the time has come for The Hat to find a real OC whose sole job is OC.

Just ask Alex Smith what instability at OC does for a QB, and what stability changes.
