CRL is only a symptom of Auburn's frustrations. For much of 2013-2016 CRL was seen as dead weight to much of the Auburn fanbase. Then when the Clemson gameplan was unveiled which in no doubt all the O coaches helped create suddenly Gus was the problem. Then Gus announced the O was CRL and it looked identical to when Gus called plays...the difference was simply he had more talent than the teams he was playing and the O looked better.
Not different...not more creative...just more effective. Once they played teams with NFL D players the same issues arose that hurt this team earlier in the year. A close study of Gus' offense isn't difficult. When he plays below average D's no matter the QB he does well. Against above average D's he needs a true DT who can hit the deep ball. Against an elite D he has a poor record, but with an Elite DT he can compete.
I hope he hires a OC with some history developing the passing game, but I pray we stay committed to being a run first power team. CRL needed to go and Gus needs some fresh eyes in the film room and fresh words on the headset.
