Do you mean like this play. Because that worked out great.

I agree that we should primarily run the ball, but it's not being executed well from the coaches and the players.

Just continue reading the following threads from that guy. They still voice their dislike of Patenaude.

Can someone explain why we didn't throw the ball to the screen on this play? It's not a hard read. Just count the dudes.

edit:

And then I read the thread. So, yeah, nobody can explain it.
 
who gives AF what fans in PHI think about anything? This is the same group of schmucks that threw batteries at Santa Claus at an Eagles game and booed Rocky when he lost to Clubber Lang. PHI fans are never happy nor should they be because they live in PHI, which is a shithole.

I think it is something to pay attention to but Tech fans are used to a very rigid type of offense. Most teams don't work that way any more: it is about tempo and getting the defense confused. Johnson didn't confuse defenses: we out executed them and out leveraged them. Clemson doesn't care as much about execution: it is about pace and having your athletes make plays over 60 minutes and not worrying about a few negative plays.

Temple won a lot of games the last 2 years. Rhule had a better run but what Collins did was above average for Temple Football. He did start out slow both years and that frustrated fans. That is also something to keep an eye on.

What happened at Temple is they had a great 2 year run that was outside their norms. Like many program, when that happens they reset their expectation but when performance revises to the mean it pisses the fanbase off.

It happened at Florida when Urban started to lose but they have never been near that level since.

Just wanted to note that it wasn't that simple. Out-execution and leveraging would generally be what we did during the 'death marches' to eat clock, but we certainly did things to confuse them like changing blocking assignments, which would lead to our big plays.

Yeah, someone ask Kam Chancellor at what point in the second half of 2009 did it cross his mind that he, in fact, didn't know what the öööö was coming his way.

Nah, I’ll just ask Venerables or Cutcliffe since they lived in our backfield

What backfield has Venerables not been in? As for Duke, yes, they seem to have to have figured out how to stop the flexbone.

Why would I give a damn what some random Temple fan thinks about our coaches? They're bound to have fans who sound as dumb as the people who are complaining about a coaching staff 3 game into the season...and one of those games was against Clemson so we had absolutely ZERO chance to win.

and one of those games was against Citadel so we had absolutely ONE HUNDRED% chance to win.

Yeah, I over simplified but we didn’t try and run a play before the defense was lined up correctly or get them on a bad substitution. Blocking adjustments is a little different.
 
The concern with Patenaude is his ability to tailor the offense to what he has available and his play calling. Early days @ GT, so I hope that he can improve as the season wears on.

But yeah, not a good look when Temple (!) thinks that he was poor.

That’s included in my question.

I know. It was just a train of thought post. Lots of oc’s won’t let qbs audible until at least a year in the system.

I’d like to see a screenshot that is closer to the snap. The D may be aligned differently.
 
I honestly believe that we would have beat the Citadel if we didn’t have coaches and just let the players call the plays.
