I agree with a lot of what you said but some things worry me from our offensive staff.

1. If our WRs do not fit into what we want to run we have to run different things. We refused to do that.

2. I do not think our o line bulked up too much. I think our guards were asked to do some things they were not used to and honestly our RT had some pretty terrible moments in pass protections which made Muller look even worse because it was a mess. One of two things is happening here. The first is that our RT was making these same mistakes weeks ago and it did not get fixed or we run a very odd or confusing protection scheme.
Our receivers can't get open. It doesn't matter what offense you use, opposing teams will cheat and put at least 7 in the box, saying "I dare you to try and throw on us."

I have to think that it's the latter that is not being coached properly. Way to many guys not being blocked as to have me believe that it's merely a talent problem

I need to the recording of the games again to see the Oline and dline play to comment further

But Keep this in mind

When people were kiiling laviano last year (2015) I said that the receivers were a big part of the problem. ...not getting open

When carroo was hurt...we had the same wide receiver problems under flood that we did with the same guys m, different coach and different scheme under ash

I really think the wide receivers were a massive issue of itself and no scheme is gojng to fix that

The guys we have now will improve . That is my hope and prayer. Venesky ?Krimmin?Clarke? Applefield? Heeman? Who knows? The O lines we had in 05 and 06 were not all Americans but they were a strong unit who did their jobs as well as anyone. They were well coached and tough. Can we repeat that? We have no choice..:angry:

How do you explain CL's production against the following in 2015 with no Carroo:
PSU- 27/42 250 yards (2 INTs)- hit 10 different receivers
In other games, even with Carroo in the game, Agudosi, Grant, Patton and others got open and made receptions.
