So, we all assume 2016 Brownsox got dinged up against Cal (I think?) and never put up the same passing splits. Which from a numbers perspective is true, he had a clear delineation from elite numbers back to just good.Penix seems to have had the same occur with his splits before and after Oregon. Brownsox never got right of course, even with a month off before the Peach Bowl. Legend has it Browning was hurt on this play against Boovbers.

The point Gatorz made is a good one. If his ribs are hurt, why doesn’t the game plan reflect it? Does anyone remember fall camp and Penix taking a week off from practice because of “arm fatigue”? Maybe his arm just isn’t right and they are sitting him at practice in hopes that it will liven up for game days. The receivers are running the routes to where Morris or Mack are throwing them and Mikes throwing them where he thinks they should be. Timing is all off. Just a guess.

I remember this happening right in front of me and my dad and I groaning that we sure were glad our Heisman candidate QB may have just destroyed his shoulder for an extra yard for a TD in a game they know they will win by at least 20.
I have zero insight on this but I’m wondering if Mike is so banged up they are limiting practice reps to the bare minimum. The offense is so out of sync it could be a real possibility. If Grubb doesn’t design a game plan to make his life easier on Friday there will be seppuku on the forum.
Hard to be a consistent offense when your go to plays are the highest degree of difficulty throws. Back-shoulder fades, slot fades, cross field outs. Most NFL QBs wouldn't be asked to make these at the rate we call them. And I think it's partly Mike's fault too, it's what he feels comfortable checking into when they don't feel comfortable running the ball. It's just not sustainable every game. Gameplan better.
Must work on making the throws easier and letting the wr’s make plays.Hard to be a consistent offense when your go to plays are the highest degree of difficulty throws.

I don’t think they adjust at all. Grubb and co will push down field matter the defensive look. It’s just what they do.
Too bad @brents isn't here to see all this coaching from behind a computer screen UW has the entire nation dazed and confused DeBoer ran psyops in Gulf War 1. Little known fact
Yeah, this idea that they are going to come out with a different gameplan than the one that has gone 12-0 is all kinds of fucking stupid. And if they did change it up and lost, Deboer would be getting the Cristobal treatment (rightfully so) in the media.
said this before, will say it again, take the needle, play the game.
