This team has talent but not enough to be a contender this year. The special team woes are a result of lack of depth. Nathan Parodi would never do any punt returns on other SEC teams.

I watched KJ get so comfy behind the line of scrimmage that he wasn't he worried in the end zone....
They got home when it counted and they needed it. We couldn't get what we needed. I've seen qbs run for their life. KJ wasn't doing that today.

You don’t need to be a contender to beat this auburn team. If parodi can’t handle the duties of a punt “catcher” then why is he on the field. A punt should never hit the ground outside the 10 yard line. Special teams gives up more free yards than any team I can remember.
On another note, Briles has done an okay job. Personnel is the most concerning issue with this staff.

He was flushed out of the pocket a lot today.

Three sacks, two in the pocket and three hurries on 40+ drop backs... That's not bad on the OL at all, especially when KJ was holding the ball forever on some of the drops

We were running the ball well in the first half and kinda went away from it
Because Auburn realized we were calling a run play on every single one of our first downs and adjusted at half. We continued to do the same every single first down after that (even though it was obvious to anyone with a pulse AU knew we were running) and kept getting stuffed for no gains, losses, or very short gains leaving us in second and long and an obvious passing situation.
When your offense is basically working with 2 downs instead of 3 for a half, you're not gonna sustain drives or get many TDs. Our refusal to pass (or even run a screen or wheel route) on 1st down was mind boggling and the female fans in the stands were even making jokes about it.
Our second half formula went like this:
1st down - run with RB or QB for little or no gain
2nd down and long - pass
Now if you're hitting those 2nd down passes consistently then you can make up for the obvious as shite calls on 1st down. But AU also knew that 2nd and long was an obvious pass play, as did everyone in the stadium. This usually led to 3rd and long
Our playcalling was leaving the offense with no room for error or short gains, constantly starting with 2nd and long. And then the few times we got in 3rd and short situations, we'd call a long, slow developing pass play instead of just simply picking up the first.
A couple of those 3rd down and short passes led to KJ with a wide open field in front of him and he easily could've picked up the first with his legs - instead he chose to go for the homerun and threw to well-covered receivers.
Our offense was playing most of the 2nd quarter through the rest of the game with one hand tied behind their back due to shitty playcalling on 1st

Listening to Pittman in the presser and he basically said our offense isn’t built on throwing on 1st downs. Saying we’ve got to block better because we’re going to run on most 1st downs.

I am not a football genius but this sounds kinda dumb really .
Or am i dumb, and if so be kind and explain nicely

I wouldn't count on 7 wins, who exactly will we beat?
We just aren't very good!
There’s a very real possibility that we’ll be playing Mizzou with bowl eligibility on the line.

and while I think we win, they play us lights out. It will be a fight, especially if we continue having the injuries we have.

Pittman is trying to outsmart UAPB and get a leg up early, smart
He only said that so they'd prepare for it, next week we come out slingin it all over on first down... Genius!

If he really said that I'm concerned. We need to be able to be balanced on first down so we can be balanced on the rest of em.
