Red zone

If we had a fullback on the team, a Mike Cox type, I'd like to see a two tight end, lead fullback, handoff to a PJ Daniels type tailback.
 
Narrow up the line splits and road grade. Gotta be able to get the yards thru willpower every now and again. The defense has effectively been gifted the elimination of 4 gaps for our offense inside the 20 by our coach's lack of faith in our ability. TE in some H-back lead block capacity to seal out would probably help.

What can we do to get more Tds?
Inside the 5 I would run some triple O with Rutherford and Hall at A and Dante at B.
What else?

I would definitely not install a notoriously difficult to learn and execute offense on a college team with limited practice time specifically so I could use it inside the 5 yard line.

That’s such a terrible and lazy take. The fade route is great for EJ, he’s 6’7 against 5’10 guys. That’s almost a whole foot of height difference. Sims just needs to get more touch and EJ needs to release better.

That's fair but on the other hand we need to stop calling it until those two things happen, because so far it has been a pretty poor play for us. Doesn't matter that you have the right play call if the players can't execute it.

It’s not a lazy take. What have you seen from Sims to suggest he can make that pass reliably? You’re right that it’s an effective play when you have a tall WR and QB who can make that throw with ease (one of those passes that Reggie could always do).

Sims throws it too flat

It’s only been 2 times, and EJ shoulda caught the last one. Calvin didn’t catch every fade thrown to him, but then Clemson happened.

Your mom likes Mike Cox. I'd also like to see 2 tight ends. Handy to a BJ drunk sigh öööö somebody do better

Sims put a great ball last time. It was right in EJ’s hand. He’s just gotta pull it in.

Sorry. I amend my post:

Stop throwing the fade route until Sims has more touch and EJ learns to release better.

You let us all know when those 2 criteria are met.
