We MUST scrap this Offense

Even Holgo has no confidence in it. Keeps running out the clock with minutes before the half. Won’t go for it on 4th and Short, deep in opponent territory with us have a very good D.

I see talent on the OLine, and all over the skill positions, but they are asked to make some difficult reach blocks. And apparently, we have no safety valve receivers when the opponent blitzes.

Scrap this O, and get one that fits the talent on hand. Worst O since Bush…maybe worse.

Stop it… This offense put up 24 against a good ECU defense, after a 5 hour rain delay; whereas Bush put up 7 against UTSA… Not even close.

Tune did regress a little last night, though…

Tune was confused by whatever schemes they were running. And too many times he was forcing passes into double and triple coverage, missing wide open targets…

He regressed a lot. Whatever ECU was throwing at him, you can bet SMU is on it…
What did we have…57 sacks ?

We do better in a semi hurry up offense seem to have more rhythm

Would we be the first 6-1 team in history to scrap its offense?

Tune had to run for his life. How many times was he sacked?

He actually had pretty good numbers, considering that.

No regression on his part.

Where was the screen pass and other efforts/adjustments to slow down and counter ECU’s blitz???

Fire the entire staff because we ran out of Chik-fil-a during the delay,

Tune was harassed all night, but he also didn’t check down and he made about 5 bad decisions throwing the balls… That’s about 4 too many.

Saw some nice screens in the first half… A couple TE screens that stick out in my memory.

I think Dana thought he was going to come out and run the ball on ECU and play TOP and let our D continue to keep them from crossing the 50, but we couldn’t run the ball… Then a turnover and an encroachment on 4th down gave them scoring opportunities.

Not to mention it was midnight…

We came out in the 2nd half and opened with that TE screen for no gain.

Maybe we didn’t want to show SMU too much this week😂

CDH was laying in to the O line in the second half. Heard him yell a 10 word sentence, 7 of which were expletives.

This is by far the worst offense we’ve had at this school in the last 20 years. It’s too slow. Gives the defense too much time to switch. Too deliberate and no creativity. Very disappointed in Dana’s performance. This team so undisciplined and has no structure. Very disappointed. It is certainly not worth 7,000 dollars a year for football tickets. I’m out!

We are 6-1. His job isn’t to have a productive offense, it is to win.

If we fire coaches for average offenses, we will be looking for a new basketball coach.

He is building this thing the way Sampson did. Good defense is consistent and it travels. Offenses by their very nature are inconsistent. Very good defense coupled with just enough offense to win is a championship formula.

A lot of people don’t remember but Yeoman’s veer could look horrible at times. The mad dog defense kept them in games until the veer could get going.

We have too many drama queens on this site. It was a LONG night. Highly unusual weather circumstances. Thankfully, we got the game played.

Not our best effort, but ECU is better than their record.

We did what we were expected to do…we won the game.

Anybody see the Cincinnati-Navy score? A win doesn’t have to be pretty every game, just get the W. Were 6-1….

Agree. Forget tonight other than the W and move on to SMU.

ECU = #119 in defense. (UH game not included in this ranking)
Better than 11 other teams including Tulane (128th) and USF (129th)

Did this guy just compare us to Cincinnati?
