I didn't see it as particularly bad. I thought it was average against a good Stanford team. If you think the pass pro was bad... I mean, what are you supposed to do against a good DL as Stanford?
You block guys into lanes--if John Denver keeps running right into those lanes, he's gonna get sacked. He got blitzed a lot and didn't check down.
I feel like I'm taking cray pills because that was the first time I've EVER seen a UW QB straight up take us out of a game we could've won (not including Fouch and Paus).
This is the third straight season the Cascade Front has sucked. They are average, at best. More likely below average and bordering on dreckfest. We need to have a strong running game. With that many starts, they should be the best, or at least top 3 in the conference. They are probably 8th. The running game was non existent in the 2nd half. We asked Miles to win the game for us and he isn't capable of that against a defense like Stanford.

I'm not excusing Miles but that O line was nothing short of a disaster today. There was hardly any blocking on any play today. Miles could never hang out in the pocket because someone was going to get through.
What Miles needs to fucking learn is when someone from the edge is coming full speed at you STEP THE FUCK UP in to the pocket and don't try to turn the corner to the outside every fucking time. I am sure that shit worked in high school for him but in D1 that shit won't work.
He tries to go outside and then Stanford has an extremely easy time defending that one side of the field he is rolling out to while pushing him back.
There isn't really anything good to say about any player on our offense. John Ross won't be a factor if no one else can do shit.

Have to disagree. I didn't see miles running for his life because he had to.
Maybe if Miles spent time watching Russell Wilson play QB and not that human statue Manning he would have a freaking clue not to run right into oncoming rush.
If you were a Stanford fan would you really say that the DL didn't get good pressure and dominate UW's OL and the only reason it looked good was because Miles was running into pressure? It's really fucking stupid. Their front 7 dominated. The OL sucked AND Miles pocket presence sucked. As we have seen with Price, QB's get rattled when they are pressured almost every time a pass is called.
There is a lot to be desired with Miles' play, but how can anyone say that was good pass protection?
That pass protection was an abomination period. You would think a veteran offensive line would be better but for all we know coach Strausser may have had to go back to square one with this group undoing all the damage done by Dan Cozetto and his inability to develop players or let alone recruit. As far as Miles goes he has worse mechanics than the NFL version of Tim Tebow and I don't think its a coincidence that Jake Browning is coming in January because there will be a wide open shot to be the starter as Miles is not the long term answer at QB.
Miles is certainly not the answer. His best play is the hook slide. I guess when the opposition is a bit more stout than a girl holding a camera he doesn't come out quite as tough.
I see transfers coming. Petersen is gonna want to get to HIS players sooner rather than later. Browning coming in for Spring Ball and Carta-Samuels getting a year under this belt. All we need to do is keep one of the current QB.

Haven't seen an offense that dominated up front since ASU last year and most games in 2012. Nothing, not a single play requiring real blocking, had a chance to develop. Coleman had two good runs up the gut. That's it. For a whole game.
Miles can't let all of the blame go. He made some bad decisions. But the oline sucked donkey balls. Yes we are lucky that we get to watch Russell Wilson bail out the shitty offensive line week after week. (If you don't think he bails them out, do you think Peyton would drop 5,000 yards or even 40 TDs on the seahawks?)
But Russell is a top 10 qb. Miles makes some really good throws. But the oline gets most of the blame there. Yes he could have scrambled better, he could have found receivers on the run. But he had trees in his face all game long.
To me, this goes back to what we've said for years. Sark did a shitty job recruiting oline. Period. Same for the dline. We do have Shelton but that's it.
