We didn't play horrible ... just were inconsistent. I didn’t like some of our pass routes but those could also have been bad coverage reads by receivers. Someone mentioned passing tree. Those days are gone. You use them for basics, but you run your routes based on coverages in many, many cases. When i saw receivers standing still after running a curl in man coverage, it made me wonder if it was scheme or bad reads/comprehension. There were a lot of breakdowns and in the end, it falls on the coach.
You can watch LSU games this year and see Burrows throw many wonderful passes. You can also see him throw some up and have his receivers win battles. They won a lot of their battles. These extended drives and put more pressure on the defense. We just were not winning these battles at receiver. Same on the Oline. Guys were getting beat. Guys going pro this year. Scheme could have something to do with it, but you still have to win your battle each play. We got beat on the dive a lot and we were not running anything fancy. Defenses were stunting, but you still need to make your reads and win battles.

I like that we are moving to a more pro type offense and having a fresh start on offense. Still, we have to win our battles each play. Also, one day, Coley will fall into a situation like Coach Esminger did this year... and y’all will be singing his praises... or at least people like you will....

I agree and I am no fan of coleys but the truth is execution, none of it matters without it.

Fundamental execution, or lack there of, did Coley in.

I look forward to a modern pro style offense which to me looks like the KC Chiefs.

My advice to Monken is to take every player to task on fundamentals and execution.
