i sure as frick don't

the secret playbook doesn't exist. what's lacking the vast majority of the time is offensive playcalling AND execution

Not at all. What you see is what you get. Our playcalling sucks. JJ isn't good, but he's also not being given a chance to shine. Ultraconservative will beat 3 of the weakest BCS teams on the schedule, but won't get it done against the elite.

No, I do not feel like we are purposely stagnant on offense... however I do feel they could explode on anyone at any given moment.

No.

Why would you "toy" with an opponent when you can blow them out in the 1st half?

It is playing not to lose. It is not "toying" with an opponent.

No. This is who we are.

There may be a wrinkle or two here that hasn't been shown, but I really doubt it.

We're going to play very aggressive defense.

We're going to make FG with a few big plays here and there that get us TD's.

We're going to play field position, etc.

Pathetic when you really think about it. We have seriously talented RBs and Wrs and our Offense simply sucks. Being in the Bottom 10% - 15% of all offenses going into Year 2 is not a success.

Maybe thats just it. We suck so bad in offense last year why not make everyone keep believing that. To tell you the truth, they haven't really been using a lot plays. This is how Les Miles thinks, he is always hiding something. While we are 3-0 and moving up on the ranks with a great Defense why not go this path. No one will take us seriously with the same old vanilla offense, So they think!

You're overthinking it as well as giving Miles WAAAAAAAAAAAY too much credit. We kept waiting for them to unleash Shep last year and it never happened. It is what it is...

I think we have more offensive firepower than meets the eye but by no means are we good enough to toy with anyone.

We've been holding back for two years now. We're waiting for the right time to unload.

No. We heard this all last season as well. What you see is what it is.

I don't know. If the offense finished 112th in the nation last year and it was my job on the line, I don't think I would be playing games with the offense, I'd be scraping for every yard I could make.

In all honesty I think our offense needs time to gel. I get sick everytime the come on the field because our offense is no where near the production we have had in years past (excluding last year). If we do anything big as far as BCS bowl pushes it will be because of our "D"

Granted the N. Carolina game was scary but could they have taken them lightly before the game because of all the suspensions...
