That's my point. Foley has to be in question.

Had to be a reason he didn't leave when PP and GDL were here. If he was a savant he would have landed another job.

Have we seen 0 yards passing in a half since the International Bowl? Of course that was on purpose.

Stat I heard on the pre-game show. 60% of first down plays in the first three games this year have gone for a loss, no gain or a turnover. Think about that stat for a bit.

No. When you play true freshmen and Knappe, you have to expect they will be at a strength and experience disadvantage to virtually every team. The play calling needs to take into account our inexperienced OL. In other words, quick hand offs and quick slants. Weist figured it out by the end of last year and unfortunately, Cummings hasn't figured it out yet.

I don't know how people can complain about HCBD's (or OC Cummings) playcalling given the inability of the OL to do... well, anything.

I complain.

The OL is run blocking very well.

So when you have 2nd and 4 or 2nd and 2, why in the world are you doing delayed handoffs and dropping back 11 steps and faking handoffs?

You have an advantage over a very bad DL. Run it and mix in the pass. Forget these delays.

Halftime adjustments? Depth chart changes? I'd start with a few playaction quick slants. Need to SOMETHING to at least try to back off a few of their guys from the line of scrimmage.

NO! In-game threads drive up post totals. When our out of town friends come to the 'Yard for their CR news and see 207K football posts to 330K MBB and 270K WBB posts, their perception of no football fandom is somehow confirmed!

Phil Steele looks like a character from Boogie Nights. Has the name for it, too.

Offensive line is part of the offense.

Our offense has been quite offensive. I get the talent thing. But the multiple false starts, chop block, holdings etc was just brutal. Diaco said pre-game what a great week of practice they had. I'm calling bull shiite. He is starting to approach Shady levels of bull shitte.

Putting a RB in the slot, shuffle hand offs or anything to get a a RB isolated outside.
