I may be an idiot, but I look like Einstein compared to you. Ask anyone.
On Purdue, I didnt see their score yesterday so Ill concede that point. I did see them take Ohio State to the woodshed with balance. Brohm doesnt call the plays.

Im a fan of power spreads like what chip did at Oregon. Running out of the spread and incorporating TEs that can catch into that scheme is tough to stop.
It's also not overly complicated horseshit.

I said this before we hired Hamdan, Jeff Horton who is the OC & RB coach at SDSU.
But I'm a guy that likes an offense with a great running game and running backs.

SDSU beat both of the Pac12 teams last year that we lost to.

Too lazy to say "everything" ...
What I can tell from Hamden's philosophy this year is as follows:
In the end, he's called games tied to the above. There's an emphasis on the run and taking things out of Jake's hands. Jake's shown to be pissed about this and the frustration there has hit the boiling point. Fuller has disappeared in both the Oregon and Cal games.
I don't think going spread this year would be the answer because it'd move more of the emphasis away from the team's strength.
Now looking forward to next year ... still will have some good RBs but will have a far more talented receiving group if for no other reason than everybody being a year older. I could see a little more spreading of the field next year with a QB that will likely be trusted to make throws throughout the field.
I tend to fall under the umbrella that we have some player issues this year that limit what we are able to do starting on the OL and extending to the QB position. We're behind last year's offensive numbers but not materially.
What I can tell from Hamden's philosophy this year is as follows:
- Strength of the team are the RBs
- Browning is going to make a handful of really bad decisions per game - minimize what he's asked to do
- WRs are largely average depending on what kind of growth Ty Jones would make
- TEs more good blockers than great receivers without Hunter Bryant
- Have a good defense that is going to minimize points allowed so don't give up short fields through mistakes

Not really everything, we actually started only doing stupid stuff 50% of the time as the season has progressed.
As for the stupid stuff ... that's 81% tied to the fact that we suck at just lining up and executing basic shit (particularly in the red zone).
I get that Hamden's trying SOMETHING here ... it's still FS though because at some point EVERYBODY knows that we're trying SOMETHING
It's fair to get on him for that ... goes back to what I was saying about knowing your own tendencies and breaking them.
Gilby, Uncle Denny, Mike Price and 1.5L of Old Grand-dad would produce better results than this shit.
