This may sound ridiculous, but I don’t think our offense is far off from working. Think about all the turnovers, ESPECIALLY in the redzone, and if you take half of them away we are 3-0. I just don’t know if we have the QB to make it work this year.

I agree with you. It seems like out of our 11 INT's, at least 8-9 have been when we were driving the field and getting into a rhythm and sometimes in the red zone.
Total offense is a little inflated from the LSU game but we've put together some good drives and then throw a stupid INT when we get into the opponent's territory.

It's not ridiculous. That bad news is we have problems at OL, QB, and WR. But the good news is a lot of the problems at QB and WR can be fixed with reps. Unless Costello just has a mental problem with attacking zones, he can make the throws accurately, as he proved against LSU. He just needs WRs finding spots and for them to be on the same page.
The biggest concern is I'm not sure what in the hell is going on on the OL. We need to be able to block 3 with 5. I don't understand how Dolla BIll could be so bad that he can't help double team a DL.

I don't know if any quarterback can eliminate the turnovers constantly throwing into an 8 man zone. That's why Leach needs to find a way to make them respect the run, especially if Rogers is going to be the quarterback going forward. The poor kid won't have a chance if the whole defense is sitting on his passes. I don't think Leach needs to change his philosophy, he just needs to make teams abandon that 8 man zone. Then things will start to open up in the passing lanes.
There's someone in my head but its not me.

To answer the OP- 2018 MSU fans say no.**
I'll evaluate this season at the end. Even after LSU it was year zero for me good bad or ugly. The biggest thing right now appears to be getting rid of the malcontents on offense. I think there is a chance that KJ could come back next year compete for the job and be a lot more like what we saw against LSU with time to learn the system. I think it's also just as likely that he quits, leaves, Will Rogers or even Shrader beats him out too. I don't see how Leach could keep playing Costello at this point barring injuries to Will. I think the malcontents on defense from last year are either at Florida State or the NFL right now.
