We rarely hit any deep balls this year and I know it's not on Bryce Young, our WRs don't get any separation.
Our passing game under BoB looked fine last year when we had Jameson Williams and Metchie who could take the top off of a defense.
(I am not taking up for BoB I do think he should be replaced)

That's true. It just seems like every time we run a deep route, there is ALWAYS deep safety help that keeps the WR covered. idk exactly what is going on there, I'm not an x and o guy. I just can't remember the last time we threw deep and the WR was 1 on 1 with the CB. It just seems like a scheme thing.

Also true, and the only thing I can think of is that Williams is just THAT fast where he could easily get behind the entire defense on any given play.
but I do agree with you that it was clearly an issue this season, I just think that there were worse issues this season that led to the demise of our NC aspirations.

Actually I think Bryce has a shoulder injury which is significantly impacting his ability to throw downfield past 15-20 yards with any power and DC's are scheming because they know we can't hurt them downfield.
I do agree that our WR's are not separating on their short and intermediate routes, part of the cause being a downgrade from Williams/Metchie to our current group and part being a bland NFL scheme which doesn't help them to get open.
