The play calling today was fucking terrible

[uzi]

Can't throw short, can't throw deep, can't run outside, can't run inside. I get it though, smith is supposed to work some sort of magic

You hit them hard and you run.

You hit them hard and you run.

You hit them hard and you run.

Even if you go 3 and out, you start to wear down the other team.

That's why Washington looks good on defense against Stanford and have a win against Shaw. And why we thought UW should win today despite being outmanned

I'd take Standford's every team in America's style of play, over the UW's over the last 10 years.

Great low bar as always

Didn't realize winning Rose Bowls, Pac 10 championships, and BCS bowls was a low bar.

The players on offense are horrific. I just don't see how Smith can fix it with playcalling

It's not 19tickety2 anymore. 3 yards and a cloud of dust doesn't work. If you think you're going to wear out these guys, that play no huddle teams all year long with 3 and outs, you are mistaken.

I think his point was that you need to run the ball more. Less incomplete on 1st and 10. Everyone and their two dads knew that UW was going to run on 2nd and 10. Get 3 yards on 1st, 3 yards on 2nd, and you're looking at a lot more manageable of a 3rd down than 3rd and fucking 9.

So in the scenario you prefer we magically get 3 yards a carry but in the one you don't like it's magically 3rd and 9.

I agree with RoadDawg that we probably threw to much on 1st down. But here's the thing you dopes don't realize. If you run on first and second down every time the other team will realize it and play to it. Those 3 yard gains are going to turn into 0 yard gains if you're predictable.

If you have a great offensive line you can run as much as you want. When don't you can't be predictable.

Running gets easier the more you do it, because it wears out the other team and your runners find the stride and tempo that works on that team.

You can still pass to avoid being predictable, but passing as much as we did on 1st down is fucking stupid with this QB.

You what else makes running easier? Passing.

That's the same thing Sark's defenders use to claim.

the fuck u talking about?

we have amazing skill players, good RBs, experienced OL, quick QBs that can run

Smith is the issue.

And even if what you say is true, Smith is still the issue because he has been coaching them the past 6 months

True. It would probably help if they were coached up to execute the called plays.

So you're admitting that you know less about football than Sark defenders?

Actually, I was using Stanford, and other teams that know how to run. Way to keep up.

You said you would take Stanford over UW over the last ten years, the worst ten years in the history of Husky football. I said we'd take anyone. Hence UW was the measuring stick

Did you attend Stanford on a special needs schollie?

 

[doogsinparadise]

Where did I read recently that winners run the ball, but running teams don't necessarily win.

It was also Stanford's best 10 years in this history of their team. Running the fucking ball.

It's not, but you must deal with your limitations. Miley Cyrus has a candy ass arm, & right now is not exactly lights out. I'm not saying you run the ball 95% of the time, but there's nothing wrong with setting up a third and 2 with two okay, effective runs. Your boy Saban never jumped on the spread read option no huddle 40 bubble screens a gayme bandwagon.

They probably ran like beasts back then too.

Thanks for making my point.

Yeah he just spent the last 3 years getting torched by it.

Paul Johnson maybe?

Smiff if running enough in a purely numbers sense, but there's so little creativity in getting your best athletes (running Cyler, Ross, Pettis, Shaq) in space/on the edge with the ball. I mean you look at what Auburn is doing--to use just one example--on offense and you just shake your head and start to wonder what the fuck Little Johnny is trying to do out there.

Peterman's always run really multiple schemes, but with this group of QBs he might have to do like Rick and put in a simplified running offense tailored to his athletes.

Exactly this. It's really predictable.
