Why wasn't tempo a problem last year?
Fitz could go faster, but clearly that isn't the gameplan. The QB doesn't just hurry things up on his own.

And what I'm saying is that the coach tells the player what to do. Even if you assign more blame to Moorhead, I don't think you should assign much at all to Fitzgerald. And if Moorhead can't get his QB (who has run offenses more quickly than this) to run his offense faster, that's again on him.
It's ultimately on coaching. There is no evidence to suggest Moorhead wants to run the offense faster and Fitzgerald just isn't listening. And if this is the tempo Moorhead wants, you can't put any blame on Fitzgerald.
Would you like to start a thread and breakdown the 2017 Florida Gators season for us so we can see how much of an improvement Mullen has made from the 2017 McElwain who was 3-4 with losses to Michigan, Georgia, 1 point loss to LSU and 2 point loss to aTm? Then show us how much of an improvement Mullen has made to the 1-3 Randy Shannon that lost to USCe, blowout loss to Missouri and a semi blowout loss to Florida State.
Like I said. You're comparing Mullen to Randy Shannon not McElwain because it makes your buddy look better. i.e. moving the goalposts to bring the most light possible on Mullen
You're right. I am hoping that Fitz tells Moorhead to 17 off and to 17ing speed up and starts running the offense much much faster but that isn't realistic and it isn't Fitz's fault Moorhead wants to sing kumbaya and cook s'mores on the sideline in between snaps. Maybe Fitz will get a mohawk and start taking control of this shit show before his NFL draft prospects plummet into Antarctica but that'd require some textbook insubordination. I'm also not totally sold that Fitz is even aware the pace of the offense is even an issue.
Let's put it this way...
Fitz runs the offense about as well as Liverpool and Smootness utilize the multi-quote reply button on this site...

#91 overall draft ranking. As a QB. That's in the 3rd round. Do I think he'll get drafted in the 3rd round? No but somebody does and that somebody is CBS.

There is a couple QB coaches in the NFL that will drool over his arm and size. If Fitz starts the rest of the year he'll get drafted I am guessing late 6th-7th rounds. Certainly at worst will get signed as an UDFA.
