This team is a year away...

true, tight end, but he is kind of an offensive lineman w/ catching skills.Passion said:

pass rushing has been sporadic since they started bringing in nobody but poly's. What *we* need is big fucking mean ass black guys doing the pass rushing like in the good old days. Well, it could be anybody.... Or to put it another way, just stop recruiting by race. If you are a white guy in this state and you aren't a quarterback, OL-man, or kicker/punter, or tight end you are going to Central or maybe Eastern.puppylove_sugarsteel said:...however next year might be the greatest opportunity. '17 might be just be too far away and this team might just be ready. Why? Because of Petersen and his syst em implementation. He WILL Abe the reason this team overachieves next year. He is the real deal. 81% of the dipshitted naysayers here will understand what Puppy has been saying all a long.
'17 sets up to be the playoff run, however early defections might hurt the defense. Victor could be the best inside backer this team has ever had, and likely bolt after next year. He's Hoffman with speed. Which is why a young team, with very few seniors might have to step up a year early, and make it happen in '16.
Scares me though. 2 huge games at Oregon and my pre-season north pick WSU could be deadly. In '17 the schedule pits the big games at home, with jr's and seniors all over the roster (if everyone stays, unlikely). Can our freshmen and sophomores play like upper classmen a year early?
+Can Browning hit the big throws routinely that he missed repeatedly last year? Can he stay healthy? KJCS better improve. Pete WILL need a backup who can move the chains and produce points (HUGE IF) '17 the position will be loaded with experience.
+Can Van Winkle hit those huge game winning 48yd game winners? Can the new TRUE FRESHMAN punter keep field position in our favor? Can Ross, Chico and Pettis make game changing special teams plays to win big games? They will have to win this conference, and im comfortable here. A 'push' compared to '17
+Can Coach Pete find a way to implement an effective screen game? (Ive never seen a husky team in 30 years so inept and untimely with the screen game. This HAS TO CHANGE. im confident in '17... '16 will be wait and see with a young oline
+Can the Oline take that next step? Eldrenkamp has to improve in the run game. Who is going to play center? Can Big Country improve at RT (he needs to improve, and he started to late in the year. Trey Adams is looking for all conference honors, and I think Coleman Shelton will too. Can they stay healthy and produce depth ('17 no problem, this Oline will be one of the best in the country). Need Adams to stay healthy however, Andy Kirkland wont cut it.
+Can this team find a pass rusher? Not as easy as you garboons think. Nobody on the roster currently can fill that void yet. (Spring will tell all) a lot of bodies but no answers. ('17 will be filled) Who's going to get to Falk, late in the game, with the NORTH title on the line in Pullman next year?
+Who is going to spell Gaskin? Who is going to replace Brownings favorite target and safety valve in Perkins and his production? Its easy to just say Daniels, but thats not automatic. Can Ross be a consistent deep threat? Who"s going to be the pass catching safety valve out of the backfield for Browning, the wheel route savior like DWash was last year? McGrew, A true frosh? Dotson? '17 will provide plenty of experience here.
+Who is going to punish teams on 3rd and 1, or on the goal line? Warren would have been the answer,, Lavon Coleman is not. '17 might provide the answer.
+Is Jon Smith the answer as playcaller in '16? '17 will provide the answer to that question whether its him or a stud OC with big time experience, who knows how to implement and call screens.
+The away schedule isnt friendly, it is in '17.
These are but a few pre spring topics for discussion on our new higher discussion bored. Instead of childish antics, which I unfortunately expect, how about a football discussion.
If Steve Emtman was 18 now the only way to get picked up by a FBS team would be as a "preferred walkon" or if he changed his name to Fallualla Fuckallallallallalla from French Polynesia. Otherwise, Ellensburg....

DB play should be the least of our* worries. Like #1,307 on the list behind everything else on offense (e.g., suspect coaching, suspect WRs, pants shitting, OL youth, RB depth, etcx100)Doogles said:
It was alarming how we got shredded with Kevin King out. Their WR is a legit NFL talent and the QB was dropping dimes, but a handful of Pac teams have an NFL WR or two and a QB that can get it there.Passion said:To be honest, I was feeling bullish until the bowl game when fuckin' southern miss' QB and WRs made Sidney Jones and the rest of our DBs look like they've never played before.
southern miss?
Sure the defense (overall) was a surprise and Myles Gaskin was great. But we don't really know what to expect.
Really need gardenhire, miller, and Jojo to take the next step.

Regurgitated doog excuses do not equal a football discussion.puppylove_sugarsteel said:Hey what do ya know, a football discussion

Falk will miss 3+ games for concussions. Boy's skull is a dry leaf.

3 phases to the game:
D - legit top ranked D; share some concerns about the DBs, pass rush, etc., but these aren't existential problems like the last decade.
Special Teams - return game and coverage teams are top ranked. Punter and FG some question marks but again those are good enough to win.
O - legit RB, and a lot of questions about how guys develop.
We should win all the games we're favored. In my mind, I want to see if this team finally wins a couple of games they weren't supposed to or come back from a deficit against a good team. Can we take 2 of 3 from Stanford, Oregon or SC? -
Youre a fucking bumbling idiot Sark. All that needs to be saidsarktastic said:It's time for Peterman to WIN or GTFO.
He didn't purge the team and take a full class proving his faith in this roster to win now.
Combined with the fact the PAC-12 is dogshit this year... it's simply time to win. -
And Tommy, get the fuck out of this thread. The only line-up youre aware of is the Yazdi spring line, plus sizes too. Jag off and GTFO!

You know @puppylove_sugarsteel is butthurt when he posts twice in a row within the same thread.

Made our db's look silly? Dude, spread tesms are going to complete passes, especially with a good qb. SM qb Had a better arm than browning. There was a reason SM was in a bowl game passion. What matters is not how many yards between the 20's, its how many td's our corners gave up. Except for that long td in the 1st quarter, syd jones and co did just fine. Youre such a boofPassion said:To be honest, I was feeling bullish until the bowl game when fuckin' southern miss' QB and WRs made Sidney Jones and the rest of our DBs look like they've never played before.

John Ross w I ll upgrade the receivers Bill. Thats why I didnt waste space on the WR unit. Expect Pettis to have a big year too. Our WR's will be just fine, trust Pump on that. That unit is the absolute last of our worries.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:Need to upgrade the receivers
You can win without Steve Largents and Andre Risons, but they help especially with an average at best OC.
