If you are going to throw the ball 100 times today do you think you might could use the TE’s a little more. In particular Marshall Pritchett. Think you might could get him more snaps today and get him so targets? Seems he is always making a play when I see him get targeted. Any TE will do though.

Also if it’s not to much to ask can we bootleg Keelon out or just get him to fake the handoff and then go around the end. You could even work in some of the TE throws off that action. I have watched you use the I formation several times this year so I know it’s possible.

If those things are not to much to ask it would be fantastic to see some of that actually called during a game.

Odds of him seeing this actually aren't 0 percent.

We made gameday today. Keep up the good work soldier.

Just trying to bitch in a more positive way is all. Don’t expect him to read the post.

Here are our real struggles:

KR struggles making the correct read on the RPO.

KR held the ball for too long constantly.

KR missed open receivers.

The left side our of offensive line was a turnstile last week.

Our receivers had multiple critical drops.

Our receivers kept coming up a yard short of the 1st down marker for some reason.

Our defense doesn't know how to get stops on 3rd down...by playing the sticks.

KR does well once he gets settled in. Which is why teams are smartly putting pressure on him as much as possible to prevent it.

For the most part, KR needs to advance in order for us to have success. Once he gets it clicking and the game slows down for him, we'll be contenders.

It doesn’t matter what he does today because he could completely reverse course next week. I don’t trust this staff, AT ALL.

I don’t take the sky is falling attitude most Bama fans do but your summary about sums everything up. Despite all of that though Bama is a couple of plays away from being in the game against Tennessee and beating Georgia.

When Russell starts taking what the defense gives instead of forcing throws and turning the ball over or taking bad sacks then Bama will be just fine despite everything. He can do it. We have already watched him do it at times.

The reason I say bootleg him out is so he has 1 or maybe 2 reads. If the play isn’t there then run if you can or throw it away. Hit enough of those and the run game will start to pop sooner or later. The gameplan similar to the 2011 Natty game would help Keelon a bunch. He could do that in his sleep. Bama has the TE’s to do it. It keeps them ahead of the sticks and on schedule. Get Keelon in the groove with short easy throws like that early and he will find a rhythm and then you can pretty much call what you want because he is in a rhythm and feeling confident. It would be like a shooter in basketball struggling but starts to get to the stripe and see a couple of easy buckets go in. It can get them going. Same here.

OP, you make far too much sense for Grubb to listen.

No, not really.

He could do things better, but you can say that of any OC after any game.

We are a young team. Alabama's average player age is 20 years old, ranked 117th out of 138 teams. We are actually ahead of schedule. Our recruiting class is limited this year because we expect to keep a lot of people.

Young team = players making mistakes. And that's what I see. KR is a RS freshman QB. You can see his talent and such against good teams, but also the higher end top defenses he struggles to make the right decisions. That'll fix in time with experience.

As for coaching specifically - I think we need more snaps under center on the road and we need to play the sticks on 3rd down on both sides which seems basic to me. Maybe offensively we should be burning defenses for being so aggressive more often.
