the center got pushed so far back at the snap he almost caused Brown to trip.


I’ve never seen so many offensive linemen get thrown on their asses over and over.

56 was the worst example, but it’s not just him.

I get you may not drive everyone 5 yards of the ball, but get a stalemate some and keep your feet.

that throwing motion is going to keep getting him in trouble. But, not much you can do about that at this time


this. this right here is the canary in the coal mine with me and Brown.
either he's uncoachable or has been coddled his whole life because he had certain physical attributes, but that delivery in no way shape or form is going to serve him well.

Why haven’t we been able to fix the OL problem then? It’s been years and different coaches.


Because auburn makes little to no effort to impose our will on teams and run downhill. I don’t care what anyone says, giving O linemen the opportunity to punch a defense in the mouth builds more confidence and continuity than asking them to sit back in pass protection and take a beating all game.

Maybe Golesh can catch lightening in a bottle and find an OC that comes attached to an effective QB like the Jerry Kill situation at Vandy. He’s gonna have to find a four leaf clover somewhere because I don’t know who would actually choose to come here and play QB in the current situation. We are the Bataan Death March for QB careers right now.

I haven’t seen those “21/22 UTenn offensive play calls this season. All I’m seeing is Malzahn-esque play calls.

Make it make sense…


Different playcaller. Joel Gordon seems in over his head. Good news for golesh he has 2 scapegoats so he'll get at least 3 years.

One thing we should be able to control is staying onside. This is mind-blowing.

That fourth and one was dumb. Still too close of a game and too much time on the clock being deep on their side of the field.


I think if we tried a QB sneak their DT would blow up our center the way he had the whole game. Ironically we did not block him and he blew it up anyway....along with about 3 other guys we failed to block.

I don’t see this O-line imposing much of anything on anybody.

At least Charlie Chaplin moved early to prevent turnover and 7 yard losses.

I miss that bowler hat wearing, umbrella spinning deaf man more than I ever thought I could. At least he did not get rag-dolled and thrown on his arse over and over and over.

How could this be? We’ve heard ad nauseum for the last 4-5 months that were going to be VIOLENT. Aside from Mabson we are the opposite of violent on offense.

He holds the ball too long and as you said jang he needs to "throw them open".

Perfect example on one play the receiver made a cut and started a crossing pattern, CB was even with him but flat footed, he should have thrown it then and the receiver would have had the CB beaten, instead he held it for another second the safety cuts in front of the receiver and THEN he threw it 600 miles an hour behind the receiver, it ricochets off him into the secondary.

The receivers are getting open, that long toss down the field he had his guy beat by five yards and he overthrew him by 10.

And I dont give a shat if he had the diamond encrusted necklace before he got to Auburn. There is no crying in baseball and no fcking jewelry on the most overpaid QB in college football. If he is so stupid he cant see fans would be pissed off he is making 3 mil and wearing jewelry while stinkin up the place, its no wonder he cant read a defense or make a throw. And yeah thats how I really feel about it. And Golesh as well for not telling the dumb shat to take it off.

It is crazy. He has gone from sending multiple players blitzing multiple times a series to, Hey, just drop everyone into coverage. I don't get it either.

I didn’t think Golesh ‘s offense was gonna look like freeze. No creativity, nobody is ever just wide open . The QB can’t throw it. Need to try another QB. Bench Brown if he holds the ball again and takes sacks.! It’s drive killers over and over- I get it when someone breaks free unblocked but you can’t kill the drive with a 4sec sack. Thats bench worthy alone!

The punt fielding at the 5 and NEVER returning a kickoff is horrific. Especially when you have Pleasant. The guy was an all American kickoff returner. It's pathetic. Alex is also making some changes FAR too slow. The is no reason for Omar to be your second string running back when He's the best damn blocker in the running back room and the other RBs have similar running ability. The difference should have been WORK ETHIC (which they wouldn't shut up about in camp) and pass blocking after like game 3. Last but not least prove that you don't show favoritism at the QB position. During the bye week start preparing Tia to light a fire under Byrum's butt. Don't wait for a terrible performance at Georgia to start thinking about a change. treat every game like it's precious and make ANY personnel decision to make us bowl eligible.

Yup, …. don’t bother getting your vision checked.

It’s the same ‘ole o-line performance….. and it’s the same ‘ole results ….

Would he run or just stand there and burn?

He's only had 4 and a 1/2 years to decide.

A lot of those false starts are because of those very long count downs to the snap. That was painful to watch.

Well, at least there are two weeks to prepare for UGA.
