It's poor coaching if you're going to stick your head in the sand until everything aligns perfectly. He should be adjusting until whatever he's looking for happens.Quote:

However, it's important to weight your opinion with the fact that we're talking about 3 games here. Just 3 games.
3 games in YEAR 1 after we fired a coach we all thought put us back YEARS! I remember in December of last year the narrative was that we needed to pull the plug now and "just" have 2020 suck, vs keep joe and waste the first 2 years of whoever follows him. We all thought he had set the program back.Quote:

Accept your rep sir. Outstanding postQuote:

That said, if you have 5 guys getting beat by three, and a DL consistently runs by your center before the center even gets his hands up, I'm not sure how much you can fix with adjustments. Certainly narrow the splits at least around the center so somebody can put a hand on the guy, but if you've got 5 getting beat by 3, you have a talent problem or a basic OL skills coaching problem, and adding more blockers might give you some more time but it's going to make it much harder to get people open.
