I agree with most of what you laid out. Two opinions that might differ. Our RB's are average to above average at best. Not complaining but they are not elite level. Hopefully we get that resolved in this incoming class.

Play calling is cautious due to concern over pass protection or scheme or ball protection concern or whatever. We run too much play action and not enough straight up pass plays in the short field. Pass protection is not as big a deal in the short game and you dont have to keep max protect in every play.

Yes, we have obviously had problems on offense. I believe it mostly has to do with OL play.

But while I can acknowledge that we’ve had problems on offense, I also believe this transitive property crap people keep spitting is a garbage argument. Louisiana Tech scored more points on LSU than Georgia. Surely nobody thinks that Tech has a better offense.

Well I don't think the majority of people wanted Canada to be replaced, especially by E. That was an O decision not a performance issue. Then he replaced him with a guy who wasn't all that excited to be OC to begin with. Some people want to get the right person in to update our offense sooner rather than later so why are they idiots?

I would say the people who believe that the OC who can't score a point at home against the team we HAVE TO beat in order to take our team to the next tier are the idiots in this scenario.

No they don't but tech hasn't consistently out produced UGA either. Again, you're missing my point. It's not just one game. It's many teams doing this against the same opponent. Go look at who Arky has played before and after us and look at the average points against them. Then compare that to LSU. If it was just one game or one team even I would dismiss it but it's not.

Good coordinators minimize weaknesses and maximize strengths.

The issue with the offense is twofold, and only twofold. I swear to God if I see another Burrow sucks thread I’m going to lose my goddamn mind. Experience, is the issue. It’s not talent, it’s not coaching.
So we won't get better until we get 4 & 5 star recruits to BOTH start as freshmen AND stay four years right? That's how everybody else does it... right?

With the running backs I think Brosette has just had about as bad as you can get it in college. But I admire the kid for sticking with LSU behind the RBs we had. CE, I think he's young, but he's got it. And Fournette, I know he was likely part of the LF7 deal, but he didn't look bad. It's just like the WRs, you got some older guys who haven't played and some really young talent.

Always a good start when you’re about to ramble for several paragraphs. Pardon me while I don’t read another word.

Preach it Brother! Won't do much good on here though cuz there are so many fricking morons when it comes to actual football knowledge! But I'm with you! All the ignorant fricks saying they're tired of excuses and there are no excuses are a bunch of idiots! Let the down votes begin!

There are no good excuses for having a offense still ranked in the 80ies after just playing two of the worse defenses in college football after a coaching change in 2016.

Wake up and smell the crap coming from our offense.

LSU had the 3rd hardest schedule last week. 1st after the Bama game.

Now it's the 20th hardest schedule. Things are looking less and less impressive.
