RoadDawg and Little Jimmy Cornell answer strong questions and point blank say Pete will never win, even a division championship while at UW. Chest (I like to call myself that) breaks ranks and argues the other side. It gets heated but not personal.

Lil jimmy and roadie are right. the PAC 12 sucks this year and the offense has not improved or been close to average and our team sucks. We didn't have to win the north but losing to cal and Oregon because our offense can't do anything well is pretty fucking pathetic.
you guys have a tough job, arguing about the same shit over and over again has to get old.
I do agree with Chest that just running the ball more isn't going to fix things when you still can't complete passes
I simply can't believe that Pete could have forgotten so much about coaching to have an offense this bad. Yet week after week we see this shit on the field.
@HeretoBeatmyChest is my source
It is only a year and a half into the Peterman era, and he did inherit a mess at a number of key positions on offense. Sark failed to restock the cupboards with guys like Price, Sankey, Kearse, and ASJ, let alone pay any attention to recruiting the O-line. As a result, Peterman has been forced to start true freshman at an unusually high number of positions, particularly along the O-Line. We'll know for sure whether or not youth is an excuse or an explanation for the current dreck on offense going forward, but Babushka is doing the youth no favors. He risks trashing their confidence by not making it easier for them to build on smaller successes, and is putting way too much pressure on the defense to bail him out. I firmly believe he has to go and could be Pete's downfall in the end. They really need an OC and position coaches, particularly at QB, who are capable of developing players and scheming to maximize the talent they have on hand, and I know, water is wet. Anyway, I've seen neither happen on offense over the past year and a half. Chest may be right, they may start to execute at a higher level and things may get better as they gain experience, but it doesn't look good for the offense right now.
On the flip side there has been real development of the defense and special teams while at the same time losing some serious talent to the NFL. Objectively, there is tangible progress being made in these areas despite taking serious hits in talent and experience. The team hasn't seen a good ole fashioned Sark style multi-stacked dry plungering yet. The team is showing real fight and playing to the end of the game. Tangible progress in team culture is being made and this may be the most important higher level objective.
To end this @Tequilla tl;dr poast, I really thought @HeretoBeatmyChest made some solid points. This is a total rebuilding year, progress is being made, there may be valid reasons for the dreck on offense, and in the end, it is reasonable to wait to see what happens in year three before going all Vlad the Impaler, but damn is it ever frustrating to be a Husky Fan. This shit seems never ending, a veritable cornucopia of dreck. They should beat Arizona this week, but I think it takes a brave soul to predict that, and that is telling.
And I'm gonna take you up on that beer, @RoadDawg55, if you ever slum it over here in the desert.
Fuck. It's over.
Shout out for also having the guts to say what you think Petersen is going to do going forward.
Can't wait to listen.
I've watched enough football to know that coaching scared and not to lose isn't because the team is young, it's a huge flaw with the coach and Petersen definitely has that flaw. That's why I dislike him so much.
"People are just, completely, fucking overreacting, like I'm overreacting now!" @HeretoBeatmyChest
Roady was heated and passionate in the beginning when Chest wanted answers. Then Chest, well, he took over. He was sick of Roady and Cornell talking over him. He was like, I'm taking the ball and running it down your fucking throats. That was fucking awesome. That's passion for your team. And they did all of this without getting into a personal bitchfest. Good shit guys.
I must say that you 3 work really well together. I look forward to the pod every week. I wish you had at least one additional episode each week. I could listen everyday.
