An offense that works. The defense and ST are young too, and yet they seem to be functional/decent.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:

Not only is the identity a problem, but trying to figure out what pieces are your most useful on offense and playing to those strengths is very lacking. Expecting a lot out of the WR is probably foolish because we have a lot of either JAGs or young players that lack consistency.
The only difference between your two arguments is that one thinks it should be blown up right now and that Petersen isn't the guy, and the other wants to see what happens at the end of the season.

Thanks for reading?
What would you like to see done then? Just so we can get that out there in one spot I guess.
If that means firing Smith and getting an OC that knows wtf he is doing, fine. If Pete needs to ditch his shitty system that hasn't worked in years, fine. Whatever it is, it ultimately falls on Petersen to win or GTFO.
Nothing we are seeing on offense gives any indication that things will be improved.

@ThomasFremont and I are saying the offense fucking sucks, it hasn't improved, we are losing games because of poor coaching on the offensive side of the ball not because UW is a young team, and nothing is being done to change that.
@HuskyInAZ would have you believe that the offense will magically improve next year because they will be a year older. THAT's is what is so fucking irritating
Something needs to be done about it, right fucking now, @Tequilla would have UW and Petersen wait until the season is over, but fails to realize the season is already fucking over anyways.
People with 81% of the eyesight of @GrandpaSankey can see that the offense is horrible across multiple facets of the game.
We have all fucking read this script before... Last year it was the QB's fault, this year its the fountain of youth's fault, next year (after Smith is sacrificed) it will be installing a new scheme's fault, and finally after 3 shitty fucking years we will get to have that awesome bumpercrop of wins where UW goes 9-4 and finishes 2nd in the Pac12 North.
Much like every game with Cyler at QB last year was a waste, every week with Pease and Smith coaching the players is a waste. -
I never said that you guys said Petersen should be fired, maybe I am mixing people up, but there have been some I believe that have said Petersen isn't the guy, which is fine.Houhusky said:

I agree with a lot of what you are saying, not arguing with you. -

No, his habit of losing will completely sabotage his tenure here.Tequilla said:
I don't disagree.topdawgnc said:
The only emotion I use is when I channel my anger to break @Dennis_DeYoung television.Tequilla said:Some of you fucks need to separate emotions from reading what you want to hear ...
I don't think anybody is saying that Smith is doing a good job ... I'm not. I've been critical of the lack of identity from the offense (thoughts echoed by Kyle Benn). I've noted that even when Smith makes a solid play call, the execution isn't always matching (which often is tied to youth).
There isn't going to be a mid-season firing. Carry the pitchforks all that you want ... not happening. He wasn't getting fired last year as he was going to get a 2nd year to prove whether he had the answers or not. I agree a lot of pressure on Petersen on how he manages this situation at season end and into the offseason as his recent track record leaves a bit to be desired.
Fire Smith ... it's Peterman's offense.
It's Peterman's system.
Just like Dick Rod has not replicated his success without White at QB ... Peterman has yet to replicate his success without Moore. Both are system guys who need system players to be successful.
Petersen needs to figure out what the right change(s) are here. He's doing a lot of good things in the program. The offensive problems have a chance to completely sabotage his tenure here. -
Blowing things up over and over again is a recipe for never getting anything right because there's never enough time to take hold.
What do you think happens if the playbook that has been used over the Spring, over the Summer, and now for 2+ months since the start of Fall camp is completely blown up and you start at Ground Zero during conference play? You're going to get your fucking teeth kicked in repeatedly.
The odds are very long that Smith is the answer ... nobody disputes that.
The odds are that Petersen not only needs to make a change, but needs to come to grips with himself about needing help and changing his offense over in ways that will work going forward.
What % of coordinator changes happen during the season versus the offseason? Even moreso, what % of those in-season coordinator changes happen in the first third of the season versus the back third of the season?
There's half brained, half cocked, piss and vinegar stomping up and down like a petulant child way about doing things and there's also the way things are done. They'll keep trying to find ways to improve the offense during the year ... it's most likely going to not be enough. There will be some good and bad moments. That's going to happen.
The worst thing that you can do to an offense full of young players is to blow everything up and get them in a position where they are continually thinking about what they are doing versus getting into a spot where they learn and play.
Is the season over? Yes if talking about winning the conference ... which the season was over before the year started. No if you're talking about further development of the team and the growth of the young players. There's still a lot to play for and a lot to see play out. Save the fucking pitchforks for late November. -

So Smith isn't the guy, but you want him to keep teaching the young guys.
It's like keeping Ty to finish out the season after he was fired.
Genius. -

Fucking shit we skipped right over Sark and back into Willingham 0-12 logic...
For the fucking record, "The worst thing that you can do to an offense full of young players..." is to waste their time with a coach who "nobody disputes" isn't the answer, is clearly in over his head, and hasnt developed a single player in 1.5 years. -

Something needs to be done about it, right fucking now, @Tequilla would have UW and Petersen wait until the season is over, but fails to realize the season is already fucking over anyways.
I'm Petersen, I'm pissed about Smith and Pease and I fire them today. Are you happy?
BTW, who am I hiring to replace them? What's the current market look like for unemployed assistant coaches that I'd want on staff?
And, if I fired Smith right now, who's calling the shots on offense? Do I take the lead on that? But if I do take the lead, how is that going to change anything when the fire and brimstone people out there are busy saying that I don't know what I'm doing given that my offense has sucked for 4 straight years and Smith is basically my puppet to start with? Do you see any other candidates to be OC on the current staff? I see a bunch of position coaches.
I don't in any way, shape, or form see any path that is going to result in meaningful staff changes DURING THE SEASON that will make a material difference.
IF that logic holds, then isn't it in the best interest of the program for Petersen to see the results from a high level, process that the defense and special teams are at high-end conference levels and that the offense at dreck levels is what is holding the program back? Isn't that the sobering realization he needs to come to? Isn't going after a Beau Baldwin or some other offensive genius the move that really needs to be made? -
I got your fucking pitchfork

I think that would be a solid idea. I like making him just the QB coach and have Petersen call the shots the rest of the year until he can hire an OC in December.RoadDawg55 said:My armchair CEO move would be to demote Smith and for Petersen to take over play calling.

Why demote? You only get so many assistants by NCAA rules. So if you demote him someone else would have to be D.A.O. Or you demote him to like an Admin...which I doubt an OC would take.

You just take away play calling duties, no other moves would be necessary. He is already the QB coach, just have him do that.BallSacked said:
Why demote? You only get so many assistants by NCAA rules. So if you demote him someone else would have to be D.A.O. Or you demote him to like an Admin...which I doubt an OC would take.

Ah, in the offseason he'd be gone though with warning. Keeping dead weight around is dumb and inefficient.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:

That's essentially what Mora did Ulbrich when it was obvious hiring an inexperienced coordinator was fucktarded. Took over game planning the 2nd half the year and got Ulbrich a job in the NFL after the season. -

You don't need to publicly announce that you're changing titles or roles though ... that can all be kept internally.
For all we know, that could already be happening right now.
Any I will reiterate, the fix to the offensive problems is going to come from OUTSIDE the current program. -

This post put off a really bad vibe.Tequilla said:And BTW, to @ThomasFremont and @Houhusky ... go fuck yourselves. You two are so irrational at this point that you can't get your heads out of your ass long enough to realize that those that you think are disagreeing with you are automatically doogs and not realizing that they are agreeing with about 81% of your positions.
If the first 10 points on the topic weren't enough to get through their scorched earth mindset, no amount of reason would work for them.
It's been clear in this thread that anybody that isn't willing to scorch the earth yesterday is a doog. -
