Yesterday's melt.
Remember the threads started over the past two days if Burrow ever has a mediocre game.

The tight formation you speak off also allows us to get receivers in matchups that greatly favor us.
I think we've seen the last of an emphasis on the Tight formation

It’s become a lot like basketball in the sense that we are looking to exploit certain defenders who we think are not capable of guarding our guys.
Speaking of basketball...I sure wish basketball and football seasons didn't overlap because basketball is the perfect complementary sport for football especially in terms of the WR and QB positions. Both of these positions require the player to read and react to defensive positions and to move to space...just like basketball. When you hear a commentator say, "he just has a knack for finding the soft spot in the zone". That's not just the WR finding that soft spot that's also the QB knowing were that soft spot is going to be.

LSU is also playing conference opponents, they aren't going to score 70 points every game. This isn't a video game.

Burrow is confirming that he does NOT want or need the Max Protect that "Tight" formations easily provide.
So...why did you feel the need to complain when people were attempting to give credit to Brady for this year's scheme while not ALSO giving equal credit to Ensminger and Orgeron considering the guys who were running max protect last year...you know, BEFORE Brady...were Ensminger and Orgeron?
It kind of seems like you waver back and forth with no end goal in mind, just bitching about things regardless of which side you fall that day.

The emphasis has been on countering defensive formations with a play that Brady/E thinks will be successful. That emphasis will continue. Whether it's the tight formation or five wide will depend on the flow of the game and what the defense shows.
But in terms of what we know. We know we won't see a toss dive.

The end goal is obvious and it isn't LSU as a team related. It is about one individual player.
I really hope this person isn't a relative because I would be embarrassed if I was Joe.

Pay them no mind. When children, they were the ones throwing mud balls in the sand box.

Seems the real LSU fans have more confidence in Burrow than his stalker guy does.
Drunk in the morning or just stupid?
OP sucks, but this thread is fine. I don't think Joe advocates for 5 wide and 5 in pass pro on literally every play.

Buckeye buckeye it appears you study lots of film . I can think of many big scoring plays this year that were run out of that “tight” formation. Go look them up and report back.

Just like you paid no mind to that 14 page meltdown you had yesterday.
No one here is bashing any coach or player. You’re pulling that card in a desperate attempt to save face.
If someone in this thread is bashing the coaches or players, kindly link it. Thanks x o x o

It's a collection of recent threads, not just this one in particular.

I agree with both statements and have said so since he arrived here.
But my point is that several days ago he felt the need to argue for hours on end with fans who had dared to suggest that Brady deserved extra credit for the changes that have come to LSU's offense. His argument at the time was that to credit Brady without ALSO crediting E and O equally was absurd, because E was the OC. He refused to accept that E was not running anything LIKE the 2019 version of the LSU offense in 2018, and was busing trying to run with the idea that 2018 was some sort of transitional year as we slowly worked in parts of the 2019 offense. This despite the fact that we could all see that was blatantly false. Hell, what I just referenced proves that. We bitched constantly here last year about the idea that Max Protect was not the best way to protect Burrow and was actually making it harder for his. Last year...E's offense.
I'm just curious what the end goal here in regards to this sort of stuff? What is there to gain by one day propping up parts of the staff, then the next shitting on the same guys.

I just looked at Burrow's 2019 TD video. Saw one. Northwestern. And there was a blown coverage TD against MSU.
An occasional Tight is fine. 19 Tights in a half is silly.
But "Many big scoring plays"... C'mon man!

You should give him credit for a lot of things. Y'all whined about him all offseason and the dude was spot on.
