Watch that and tell me its play calling.


Nuss isnt executing. Guys are open. Play calling is fine. Stop making excuses for Nuss.

McElroy telestrated the exact play on 4th and 2. That's how predictable Sloan is.
We've gone over this multiple times. You are in denial if you can't admit the OC is a problem.

Congrats. Tony Romo has been doing that for years, and guess what? Most of em still work.

Tony really only did that the first couple of years fresh out of the league. He can't call it anymore.

Keep making excuses for your boy. You Sloans lover or something? It's getting comical.

Bro. Juat admit just because a former NFL QB can figure out the play, doesn't mean its a bad play.

Here's another one for you to sit on.

This and he's petrified of playing behind this "Offensive" OL (Sylvester and the Kardell's) for fear of getting hurt much worse............

The issues with the offense and particularly the running game is scheme. When our idiot OC continues to mix in zone block runs with man block runs, the players get no rhythm.

Zone blocking takes very cerebral players that are quick and agile, who cans diagnose and react quickly to the play at the snap.

It is not something that works as a part-time strategy.

I’m not buying that at all. Just about every modern offense in college football uses a combination of zone and gap schemes. Some may lean more heavily on zone while others may lean more heavily on power, but they almost all run both to some extent.

I also don’t agree that zone blocking requires “cerebral” offensive linemen. If anything I’d argue that zone concepts are a bit simpler for the OL since there are fewer variations of the concepts to worry about. It does require athletic offensive linemen, but so do power concepts (particularly out of single-back sets where you need a lot of pulling OL).

I might buy inexperience as a primary factor (it certainly contributes to the issues) but we had similar problems in the running game last year with a very experienced OL.

I mean the only one who won’t acknowledge the obvious that he’s hurt is Kelly.
has Nuss himself admitted to dealing with an injury yet that I missed?

The little “eeeah” noise at 3:30 got me. Matt Flynn talked about it in Hester’s podcast too. He’s playing hurt.

If all these former players can see it, it’s most likely true.

Yeah man. 2 rushes in the first half by running backs against the worst rush D in the conference is “fine”.

No, because Nuss refuses to talk about his health

Apparently BK believes he’s got a better shot at winning with an injured Nuss vs MVB. And there’s also the obligation he has to Nuss to allow him to showcase for the draft…..but that’s not working out too well so far, but may be the reason he announced Nuss wasn’t healthy.

Nuss is probably suffering from and injury he can play through but it’s very limiting. The repair is likely not rest, but surgery, which likely puts him out for the year.

Just speculating but that’s my .02

Even more weird is Nuss saying he isn’t talking about his health.

Right, if he was healthy, he'd just say, "I'm healthy, no injuries." When he says he isn't talking about his health, he's admitting there's something there to potentially talk about about.

He’s got an obligation to the other guys in that locker room too. I could side with continuing with Nuss if the offense was doing just enough but hes been horrible bad in every game except against south freaking eastern.

Injured or not, his play warrants a benching.

This. Whatever is going on from a physical standpoint, he can't execute the offense. This all must mean the coaches believe he gives us a better chance to win while unable to execute.... which is concerning in it's own right.
