College Offensive Success is 70%+ About QB Play
Was thinking about the all the hand ringing over Leach's offense & it's so obvious why it's not running all that well right now.
Total offense rankings under Mullen:
2009 - 69 - Tyson Lee - Couldn't really do anything above average.
2010 - 42- Chris Relf - Could pound the football at an above average level
2011 - 84 - Chris Relf - Not sure I remember what happened in 2011
2012 - 80 - Tyler Russell - Offense cannot pound the QB
2013 - 42 - Dak effect starts to take place. Above average at running with capable passing.
2014 - 8 - Dak
2015 - 31 - No run Dak, but above average passing Dak
2016 - 44 - No throw Fitz, but well above average running
2017 - 46 - Same as 2016
Point is, you can look through these total offensive rankings & see the importance of having a QB that can do something at an above average level. If Ole Miss & MSU traded QBs right now, I believe, with some wiggle room, our offensive rankings would basically switch places over night.
Maybe Will is the long term guy (Don't think he is) or maybe he is not, but until he does something at an above average level, whether it be mobility, processing, or arm talent, this offense isn't going to be what we want it to be & it won't be about the scheme.
CAN'T PUT A SADDLE ON A MUSTANG
Quit Your Bi$&$&?!, He's Not Going to Run the Ball More
