With Pete building the best OL that UW has seen since the 90s... is this his way at hinting that...

...he plans to keep his offense but wants to see how it works with an elite OL?

GreenRiverGatorz

So if he didn't plan to keep his offense, he would recruit lesser linemen? Huh?

Okay, fair point.

What I probably meant was that with UW getting the best OL in decades, he will be emboldened to keep his overly complicated offense to prove to the many doubting fans that his offense can indeed win an NC.

Though there is an 81% chance he'd keep is overly complicated offense anyway, even if we weren't getting the best OL in decades.

It's his way of telling the TBS wannabes.... to shut the fuck up and let the adults handle football.

Whiney white boys from the chess team should stick to Google scholar reference chest-beating.

I think 2016 showed what Petersen's offense is capable of because we had quality talent at receiver. Since then, it's been JAGs at receiver and Browning shitting himself without wide open Ross to throw to so it's been a struggle. Give Petersen an elite O-line, elite QB, elite TEs, and elite WRs and his offense will probably dominate. If he does his fucking job and puts the talent on the field this season, the offense should immediately be better than last season.

I mean, if you give just about any retard an elite O-line, elite QB, elite TEs, and elite WRs their offense will dominate. We haven't had elite offensive talent the last two years, but we've had enough talent to play way better than we have.

But this year we have a physically elite QB who can make any throw. Not the noodle armed, socks shitter of the last four years. If we still suck this year on offense... it's all on Pete and his mensa offense.

One the biggest misnomers on this bored is CP’s “complicated” offense.

TE’s trading sides, WRs shifting and RPO’s are not fucking complicated.

All offenses look complicated if the execution sucks.

Gwad

The only thing I am certain of is Eason utilizing the TE position like we have never seen.

Pete's offense is hot garbage and that won't change anytime soon. It's better than Oregon's, but that isn't saying much at all.

This is a contradiction in one sentence. Our WR talent and QB talent has been sub-par the past two seasons and our best pass catching threat, Hunter Bryant, has been battling a knee injury. Yes, there were some terrible play calls by Bush last season but that offense was not going to be much better than what it was with what we had to work with talent wise.

I agree, IF the offense sucks this season it's Petersen fault. Duh. But the chances of it sucking are low with the talent we have to work with now.

So maybe unnecessarily ‘busy’ or ‘cute’ is a better way to describe it? I don’t know... perhaps all the pre-snap motioning just makes it seem more complicated than it actually is. I do know Pete said at the end of last season that he would look to simplify the offense before this season. Not sure what that’s gonna look like... I guess we’ll see. EWIWBI.

2016 offense was largely awful against good defenses. USC. Colorado. Alabama. Utah was fits and starts but better. Remember we got Stanford with consecutive road games and both of their starting DBs out. Oregon was historically bad on defense.

Colorado wasn't entirely accurate. Running game great. Passing game completely broken.

Greasy take.

Entire 2016 offense can be summed up in one play that game.

Browning panics, tries to throw it away, looks to be pick 6 material, Ross leaps and one hand snags the noodle arm throw and takes it for an improbable touchdown.

The motion isn’t the complicated part. That’s the misnomer. It’s the intricate and multiple blocking/protection schemes and reads by the QB that make things hard.
