Do you not remember how Cam opened things up because of Mettenberger/Landry/Beckham's capabilities?
Cam did not open things up. It only seemed that way because of the results. Here is my reply to another poster in a previous thread:
quote:
I guess perception is everything. Mettenberger had the most pass attempts of any QB since Flynn in the 2012-13 season(352). He actually threw the ball @ 2.5 times less per game in 2013-14(296 attempts in 12 games). The offense was not wide open. It was ridiculously efficient. Mettenberger threw 10 more tds vs 1 more int on 56 fewer pass attempts. He also raised his completion % about 8 pts to @ 66%.

AGENT225, I would agree that it wasn't OPEN, but passing effectiveness was a strength for us during a time span where that hadn't previously been the case. Miles was more comfortable letting these skilled guys do their thing. I understand this year's team is young, and we may very well have reloaded very well in the WR position.
The point of the OP was to call out people who criticized Miles' O philosophy. I feel sometimes that everyone that has a criticism has been labeled as a turncoat on this board. We have a successful game against Ole Miss that I'm sure all people (Miles fans or not) love. Pointing out areas where our coach has issues, doesn't necessarily mean that the person doing so is negating ALL of his strengths and accomplishments. I think a good many folks just want to see a hair more balance and get frustrated losing at home to Moo State and getting blown out by Auburn. Ya feel me?
