Opening up the playbook for EWU
The offense typically opens the playbook up more with each passing week, especially when installing a new offense like what we're doing this year. However, Miles wasn't around for spring camp and missed valuable reps early on when they were installing the offense for the first time. I don't think there is any issue with Miles knowing the plays inside and out, but I wonder if they'll design a vanilla game plan around Miles since he doesn't have the reps that Lindquist and Williams have. Of course, Miles will get the most reps this week, running with the first-team offense, but I'm not sure how sophisticated or developed the offense will be or how it'll compare to next week.
Guess we'll find out more tomorrow when the offensive coaches meet with the media.

If you have to open up the playbook for a scrimmage against the MIGHTY EAGLES, you have the wrong coach.

tl;dr
BUT we have a QB that can complete a pass, the playbook cant be as shut as it was Saturday. -
I'm hearing that scrimmages are an excellent opportunity to experiment with the offense, help me out here.TierbsHsotBoobs said:If you have to open up the playbook for a scrimmage against the MIGHTY EAGLES, you have the wrong coach.

Either way it will be interesting to continue the preparations for Stanford. -
Here's a snippet of what I'm talking about:
[Petersen said], "We were doing something and we gave him a signal. The whole offense knew it. We were going fast. The whole offense knew it and [Cyler] was like, 'What is that?' ... There are certain things that we’re still getting him up to speed with.”

Stuff like that and asking are we going to be as vanilla as we were against Hawaii or are we gonna see new shifts, screen passes, sweeps... you know, different wrinkles and different formations. -
What about on defense? Will we be opening the hustle and tackling playbook too? Will we stop playing like a mountain west team?whatshouldicareabout said:

You'll probably see more stunts and blitzes, hopefully better zone coverage.Your_Mom said:What about on defense? Will we be opening the hustle and tackling playbook too? Will we stop playing like a mountain west team?
I don't trust anyone except Peters to play man defense, especially after watching Hawaii torch us on the opening drive. -
Disagree.whatshouldicareabout said:The playbook and scheme for Hawaii was very vanilla. It was a very plain and basic offense. That tells me the coaching staff wanted to find something simple and easy to help Lindquist adjust to the game in his first start. Perhaps the best example of this was moving the pocket on the first 3 drives to help reduce pressure on Lindquist and for him to have the time to find the open receiver.

Just hand the ball of 60 times and GTFO with the win. -
