Coaching

We see the pattern with Patenaude. It’s a clear one. He schemes well to start games. Then when the other teams staff in the booth makes the adjustments his staff is unable to. Whoever we have in the offensive booth sucks.

And the reason we are a P5 team who can’t throw vertical is because our coaches are chickenshi$ coaches. And they haven’t recruited a real QB yet. I like Yates and will enjoy watching him wherever he transfers to after he graduates. He was totally shafted by Collins last year and this year. Pyron may finally be the first pass first QB we have since Godsey who can give us a consistent passing game in this era of passing QB’s. Much like in the NFL, running QB’s are fun and give some great highlights but you are not consistently going to win with that model. You need pass first guys who can extend plays with their legs. We’ve seen this every week against us.
No, I think you are apparently missing everything.
Perry could turn out to be a good QB. We need a quality QB coach. I wish we could hire Godsey.
I expect Sims to continue to start whenever he is healthy. Collins does not change starters.
 
Well we generally look like a P5 offense, rather than a rag tag group of players with 1 small speedy guy running deep like in 2019. I think the offense development has been fine considering we are getting OL transfers that are leaving their old programs for a reason, and have barely started playing our actual OL recruits.
Maybe...We have the talent IMO. The game planning and play calling is suspect. Too many times our offensive production just disappears.

I agree, but I think that's more related to limitations on the OL. If we can barely call straight ahead run plays to get a couple yards, it changes a lot of the play calling.
 
I'll give you one thing, when you pick a weird hill to die on, you sure stick with it, no matter how stupid. We already extensively went over this earlier in the year over the first 3 games. Since then, I remember doing it once against Pitt we called timeout on 3rd and goal. That's not uncommon and it wasn't anything to do with not knowing what play to run, we were already down big but it was still 2nd quarter and I'm sure he wanted to make sure he got the best play call he wanted in at that moment to cut into their lead. Then we come out and false start. I've said it before and I'll say it again, that isn't on him. That is on the OL coach, and the head coach. So then that changes what you want to call because you have an extra 5 yards to gain. Then it just happened again this week, 3rd and 3 in a 4 point game, it's not uncommon to call timeout here. He may not have liked how the defense was lined up or the personnel they had out there. Every timeout isn't a "I don't know what to call so I have to call timeout" situation. You don't know what he called there either because once again, false start. Weird that you keep blaming him for all these things. You have some weird complex going on wanting to trash him to no end, but he's only coordinator right now giving us a chance to win. By the way, you may want to go take a look at our failed redzone offense attemtps based on which QB is playing. That may open your eyes a little more.
You just picked two games (Pitt and BC) both with redzone issues and different qbs in each game, what point you trying to make here?

I'm talking about the whole season. He's always harped about our redzone inefficiencies and always blames it on the coach. We had major trouble against NIU, Clemson, and UNC in the redzone, all with Yates in. We had trouble again this week twice in the redzone against BC, Yates in again. It seems like it's more than a coincidence to me. The time against Pitt we had trouble with Sims in was one of those aided by a false start penalty, so hard to put that on him.
