Narcisse probably benefits more from a redshirt. A huge mistake would be too many minutes for Brennan behind a struggling line with struggling WRs. It could permanently damage his confidence ala Lee. Etling is not the major problem in offense. Guice, blocking and WRs have all been way more disappointing.
If the O line cannot block, it is almost impossible for anything to work on offense. I can't think of any offense in college or pros that was successful with a bad offensive line.
Only way to compensate for that is up tempo 70% passing offense using 4 to 5 WR. What have we got to lose? Hoped to see some of that last night against Troys very bad pass defense. Very disappointing.
That's what I'm saying. Things may actually be able to get worse than they already are. This isn't all Coach O's fault, no question about it. But he is still in over his head. Also I'm not opposed to having Esminger at least advise Canada on how to finish the season from a gameplan standpoint. He may not have a better read on our current offense, but he knows the opposing SEC defenses much better.
Seemed work the week before. Who said bomb everytime? Deep doesnt mean bomb. Deep means 18 yds and beyond. Dont know if you noticed but deep passes and yes the dreaded bomb got us back in the game last night. It sure wasn't the run. Point is their weakness was pass defense and we threw 11 times in the first half
