If Brennan/Narcisse throw for 2500 yards, 20-25 td's, 7-10 it's with a 60% completion percentage, are we satisfied after next season with the Ensminger hire?

I think most on this site would still be bashing the staff if they threw for 10,000 yard and 40 TD's.

If we hired him as the QB coach that would be fine.

As the OC there are many more questions that need to be answered.

Satisfied if we can score points on an Alabama-like defense, like Kent State and Chattanooga did on the road at Alabama in 2016, but we couldn't do at home against Alabama in 2016. And preferably enough points to win.

I'd be more interested in how it performs against the top tier teams not just what the final product comes out to be. I don't give a damn if brennan throws for 400 yards against SELU and then 176 against UF

No, O was sold to us with the condition of hiring the best coordinators. Ensminger is not that.

Frankly, outside of O winning the SEC, nothing will be satisfactory. And why should it be?

Satisfied if offense scores tds in red zone and we win at least 10-11 games. How we do it doesn’t matter to me.

He is OC so its how the entire offense performs that will determine how satisfied the fans are

its about offensive production, not just passing. Our offensive production has not improved since O and Canada.

Unless we beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl by 30 points by throwing the ball for 700 yards and 6 TDs with every play from scrimmage resulting in a 1st down or TD, Tigerdroppings will be ready with pitchforks.

Actually we would probably still complain that Tom Brady completed a pass on us and want Aranda fired.

If the offense ranks in the top 25 in Scoring Offense and the offense is capable of making a play to win a game, then I will be happy and call myself a dumb arse. If we carry out the same trend of abysmal offense in big games, then I will never be satisfied. A rushing offensive record against the worst defense in the conference is not enough to give me hope.

2009 was pretty close to numbers you give and a disappointing 4 loss season.
Only idiots are more concerned with passing numbers than wins. Did we beat Bama and make playoff?

I will be somewhat satisfied if we can win at least 2/4 between @Aub, @UF, Bama, UGA.

I still think we continue the win streak this year with A&m at their place. I see gaps in their D and I don’t think Jimbo can come in year 1 and beat Aranda with what he has right now, especially against what we have on D.

I hope whoever our qb is can throw for atleast 2500yds, we have 2 WRs with 900+ yds and atleast 1 rb with 1000+ yds & 10+ Tds. Is that all too much to ask for?

I will be satisfied with the hire if we score some damn points and we are much improved in the red zone. i'm very tired of low scoring offenses that go 3 and out all the time and can't throw td passes.

Satisfied with a 10 or more win regular season. Anything less is unacceptable.

ETA: schedule be damned
