This is the place for us to discuss how much fun it is to watch our "coach on the field" execute a diverse, efficient, and explosive offense at a very high level. And to give credit to his position coach and the play caller at the controls of this offensive machine.

    Yeah, he has called absolutely terrible games the last couple weeks and his position group is a messs.

    One thing that has changed the last two weeks, way less faggy pre snap motion. They still will do some motion, but the first few games it was 3 people moving every play.

    You bunch of doogs. Smiff has sucked every single game since he got here (Vanilla Hammer Package anyone?) and then Tedford shows up and the offense magically starts working and you think Smiff did it? Jesus. I am dooging as hard as anyone but some of you are on stupid pills.

    It could be that, certainly. Or it could be that better, more experienced players execute better.

    There have been some subtle changes in the things they are emphasizing this year, certainly. But whether they come from Tedford or not...impossible to know.

    The thing about Tedford is that the last time we saw him coaching football for reals, his offenses were a mess.

    So automatically giving him ALL the credit for the improvement in the UW offense seems a lot like being really stubborn about an opinion that may have been formed prematurely and looking for a reason not to admit one was wrong.

    I have been down on Smith too, but maybe it is time to acknowledge that it is hard.

    The average opponent over that period has had a pretty bad defense, to be fair.

    On the other hand, lots of teams play long strings of bad opponents and don't score like that. Which is why the announcers mention it every week.

    Smiff still has frustrating play-calls, like that 4th and 1 shotgun delay counter against Arizona or that naked bootleg pass to Gaskin on 3rd and 1 where 20 things could've gone wrong and we only gained a yard.

    If you want to crown Smiff anything, do so after rewatching the Arizona game

    Fans love plays that work.

    Straight up dawgman logic.

    Pete gave him a short leash and a handler. You think he magically got fucking better?

    This is why we say it ALL comes from the HC.

    Pete needed to fix the WRs and the offense and guess what? He did.

    I am not saying that pressure and mentoring didn't play a role in Smith getting unfucked, they probably did. Along with having players who do a better job of executing the plays that are called.

    The point is, excessive criticism of Smith at this point is a lot like criticism of Pettis or Mathis, previously deserved but now a stale storyline that only very stubborn people will stick with.
