12-43 in 3rd down conversions in the last three games. Its a lot more than just a "couple of key drops".

That's 14.4 yards per completion, which isn't too shabby.


Largely built off one play.

Take out the 56-yarder and it's a 10.2 ypc. Solid, but not outstanding.

Logical reasoning is frowned upon here.

We need to just shut the program down. It's just that bad and the tards can't go on.

You honestly think if the recievers get better we will be a different team.

Doesnt matter when the 3rd and 9 play call is "Recievers, go line up and hold your penis because youre not going to do anything."

What.

You learn to catch a ball when you are like two years old . It has NOTHING to do w/ the coaching staff, it is on the receivers. You cannot blame that on anybody but the person dropping the ball, it is just not possible...


I hear what you're saying and don't necessarily disagree. But I don't understand how our guys would even get recruited if they dropped this many balls. This is a consistent problem among all of them. All of them seem to be lacking focus. It's one thing if there were one or two guys that miss a ball but quite another when they are all consistently dropping balls rather than catching them. They are distracted by something.

Dude..... I'm an optimistic person but you're kidding yourself if you're serious with this.

Did something happen to James Wright? I don't remember seeing him any on Saturday.



He was out there. Mett threw to him once and he dropped it.

The only receiver that seems to be trying to get separation is OBJ, but he's been dropping passes too. When we throw deep, which is pretty rare.

Mett's stat line is 11/25 for 158 yards


This wouldn't have been a bad stat line to have if our rushing yardage was around 150-200 yards. You can't have 158 yards passing with less than 50 yards rushing against a team like Florida and expect to win the game.

Quarterback is not the problem - the dude is only starting his 6th game!

The problem is the offensive line (and lack of depth) and lack of an offensive mind on the staff (i.e. real offensive coordinator). No question about it.

And both of these are Les Miles' fault. Period.
And yes, it is that bad.
