gross incompetence

[FlabLoser]

We're rebuilding. We don't have to go bowling. I just am sick and 17ing tired of seeing gross incompetence on the field.

Game 2 and this defense already has me asking, damn should I have bought season ticket again...

 

[chewgumm]

his first year to be a series of 50-20 beatings, which by the end of the year will end with nobody showing up for the game. I have to be able to believe that he sees this and is telling Torbush that we are not sitting in a 3-4, or 3-3-5 or whatever the hell that was and leting the rest of the teams pick us apart.

The lesson from the game should be Pressure on QB = Mistakes by QB.

I would also absolutely take the redshirt off of Thames...and whover else we have over there with speed.

I'm sure that he's probably not really ready, but he needs some game experience. If Washington or Anderson gets hurt, we are really gonna be bad in the secondary. I would like to have a little more playing depth there. He can't be any worse than what we have right now out there. Im all for redshirting guys, but we aren't worth a damn at his position and he could have somewhat of an impact.

 

[Columbus Dawg]

as a potential All-SEC safety down the road. Problem is, he spent the entire camp practicing at WR. That was probably a mistake by Torbush and Mullen for not starting him out at his natural position. At this point, it just doesn't make sense to pull his redshirt.

Aren't we already bad in the secondary? I agree with what you are saying but I don't know if it is possible to get much worse than we already are.

But I think Fletcher Cox needs to play more. I would have Cox and Love at the DT position and then move McPhee to to the DE position in the place of Nick Bell or whoever. I think those three would help out the pass rush a lot. Oh yeah, and keep Sean Ferguson on the opposite side at DE.

I'd also try someone else at Zach Smith's spot at safety, possibly Thames, or maybe Corey Broomfield.

That and blitz a LOT more of course.

 

[chewgumm]

Cox is quicker thatn McPhee from what I ahve seen.

 

[Rabid]

What about McPhee and Cox at DE at the same time? McPhee at LDE and Cox at RDE. That should make out DL a little more formidable.

 

[NutherT]

Cox and McPhee are fast, but they aren't fast enough to get sideline to sideline in the SEC like you need ends to do in a 4-3. Sean Ferguson and Shane McCardell are the body types you need there this day and age. With a hell of a Nose Tackle, McPhee and Cox could be dominant DEs in a 3-4 next year.

 

[Todd4State]

What about McPhee and Cox at DE at the same time? McPhee at LDE and Cox at RDE. That should make out DL a little more formidable.

Then put Love in the middle, and revamp the LB's. Keep Wright and Chaney where they are, move White to the inside, and then try someone like Trevor Stiggars, Deontae Skinner, or dare I say Mike Hunt on the outside.

Also, I would try to fatten Zach Smith up. He still can lay some people out, but obviously, he can't cover anyone. If we can get him bigger, we can make him a LB in the future.
