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

We were an RPO offense last season. Brownsocks had to count + read a defender and make a choice. Every non-triple school in the country runs them. Our? QB made shit reads + Bush was inconsistent.NLdawg said:TacoSoup said:

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.
TE’s trading sides, WRs shifting and RPO’s are not fucking complicated.
All offenses look complicated if the execution sucks.
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.
UW is not Air Raid-ian levels of simplicity but it isn’t that complicated -

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.TacoSoup said:

I took simplify as meaning a more “focused” approach to the offense... As in, clearly defining what we? want to be as an offense and how we? want to do it.
The concepts we teach aren’t THAT complicated. It’s how they’ve been applied is what has held us back IMO -
I might be the minority of one, but I like “we don’t have an offense, we run plays” thing.

I don’t really care what offense we run as long as we can execute the plays and understand that sticking with the run is our best bet in most situations. I got sick of watching us predictably abandon the run when we were winning the game and needed to manage the clock. And when we did run the ball, we got bailed out by Gaskin’s ability to break tackles because it was some slow to develop bullshit. I like a delayed handoff when it works, but it seemed like every play was out of the shotgun or pistol formation and there was too much dicking around in the backfield. I’d rather see us hit the line fast 81% of the time, and dare I say, use a fucking lead blocker more often.

I don’t totally disagree, just pointing out that the shifts/motions aren’t the complexities that cause us problems.TacoSoup said:

Oh and one more thing...
If you’re going to run the option, please for the luv of all the cute kittens and puppies in the world, make sure that the QB understands how to read the end and make the correct decision of whether to pitch or keep. -

Or better yet, change out of it presnap when defense is cheated playside.PurpleJ said:Oh and one more thing...

Yeah and run a quick slant right behind those motherfuckers. Or flip the play call.GrundleStiltzkin said:
