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?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
    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.

    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.
    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.

    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.
    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.

    UW is not Air Raid-ian levels of simplicity but it isn’t that complicated

    Right.

    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 totally disagree, just pointing out that the shifts/motions aren’t the complexities that cause us problems.

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