I feel we struggle adjusting to adjustments. Saw it last year some, but more this year. Thoughts?

Sometimes as a coach you get handcuffed by your personnel. Especially when injuries happen. Like you want to do this and that, but the players you have aren’t ready for it yet.

I think sometimes people see changes in performance over the course of the game and attribute it to “adjustments” when in reality it’s often just the result of inconsistency.

For now, at least, our offense is unable to move the ball consistently, and thus is dependent on getting a big play or two from guys like Wan’Dale and Mo in order to have a successful drive. Not really where we want to be, but if you can’t do the fundamentals like blocking, that’s where you end up.

Could be a quick thread as there haven’t been a whole lot of them.

but I second the notion that the personnel may be a limiting factor here.

I can remember, how were we at adjustments last year

How can you come out at halftime and not have seen at least one weakness to exploit? We come out and go 3 and out going backwards. NW comes out and saw something in our defense and easily drove it down for a touchdown. We did adjust to whatever they were exploiting that drive though.

Their adjustment to run QB zone read in 3rd Q. it took a while but Im glad we adjusted to the cb peeling and taking QB. Im glad theybdidnt adjust and run the Bill Snyder zone read and option with pass to wr. It was there for them. I see def we are adjusting well. Literally we are 1 blown coverage from being 5-1 in the top 25 and right where we thought we would be. If Adrian is hurt long term and we lose any of the next 3 then we are off pace. I hope He can get right mentally and physically over the next 10-14 days and we can find a way to beat Minnesota.

The 2nd half start reminded me a lot of the 2nd half at Colorado. A team that did nothing initially all of a sudden becomes unstoppable. I think the defense got their "adjustment" when AM went down. They were probably politely told that this game was on them since the offense was doing nothing.
