Ok look at our red zone inefficiency. You have a 6 3 state high jump champ named Armand Williams sitting on the bench. Now the opposition doesn't have a guy who can out jump him.
Throw him a jump ball in the end zone! I mean he should be able to catch by now, with all that quality coaching. Great coaches adjust there game plan based on their strengths and opponents weaknesss. I see Chavis do it on defense all the time. I rarely see the offense vary its gameplan.

Tell me you wouldn't love to see our backs, out strongest asset, split out at WR to throw short passes to or to decoy and spread a defense out. Can you honesty ever see these coaches having the aptitude to try something like that ?

yes, I've seen it done this year. Hill motioned out vs. Bama and Clement got free for what looked to be a TD. it got called back, but we tried it.

and before you go crying, we still scored a TD on the drive.

Yeah, let's throw a guy out there in the redzone who never plays because he is tall. There's a reason he's not playing, especially in the redzone. Hell, we split Nic Jacobs out wide and tried to throw a fade to him, that should tell you what the coaches think of Williams right now.

Since they did this multiple times this season, I would say yes the coaches have the aptitude to try that. And the reason you can't tell the difference in game plan and adjustments is because you only recognize 3 plays, run, pass, or trick play.
