I hate our offense

That was such a dumb play calling series

 

[Dawghouse]

Looks like we're in the Stansbury stall up 3-0

 

[msuJD164]

That series made no sense

 

[horshack.sixpack]

I hated that series. Why? Someone with football creds tell me why.

 

[Baddog11]

That series showed us that our coaching staff has 0% confidence in TR, but they feel obliged to have to play him.

 

[MSUDawg25]

Everyone says we need to run the ball a lot and control the clock. We come out and run the ball a lot and control the clock. No one is happy.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

This.

[UIUCDog]

I'm cool with running and controlling the clock, but we need points also.

[jakldawg]

and our offense hates us right back.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Two 3 and outs in a row. That's not controlling the clock

We had one good drive to start the game. Everything else has been ****. And this against a ****** OK St. defense that was constantly torched last season.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Chris Wilson puts out a mediocre defense one year - gets canned.
Offensive staff including Merlin's puts up mediocre offenses year after year - everyone stays

 

[MSUDawg25]

No, I agree. You get zero points for TOP. We've seen we can stop em. Open it up and get some points.

 

[squirldawg]

I am cool with controlling the clock too, but you have to move the chains first

That's been consistent in the Mullen era.

The opening drive of the game, and/or the second half, will look great. Then we just go to ****. I don't get it. What happens from that one drive to the next, and all the ones after that?

 

[Dawghouse]

Everyone says we need to run the ball a lot and control the clock. We come out and run the ball a lot and control the clock. No one is happy.

In order to run you have to pass at least a little. We're not even trying to keep them guessing and it's showing.

 

[FlotownDawg]

I thought Mullen was hired because of his brilliant offensive mind. We are putting on a Croom like performance so far. Our defense is playing out of their minds and the offense is stuck in the mud, just like last season. I'm just waiting for OK St. to hit about a 60-yard bomb with a minute left in the half and go into the locker room up 7-3 despite being completely dominated by our defense.

 

[MSUDawg25]

The opening drive of the game, and/or the second half, will look great. Then we just go to ****. I don't get it. What happens from that one drive to the next, and all the ones after that?

I think the first drive, most of the plays are scripted.

 

[Dawghouse]

Those drives are scripted, the rest is on the fly. our on the fly play calling is crap. I'm fairly certain Koening is in charge of play calling after the scripted drives but I could be wrong.

 

[UIUCDog]

Well damn, script all the drives then.

 

[UIUCDog]

To be accurate, that defense was well below mediocre. You have a point, though.
