Our QB stats...
are enough to win games. I listened to Matt Wyatt's podcast today and he pointed out that Rogers' stats are spectacular (and they are) and anyone reading the stat lines would have thought that we won the game.
He's right...too a point. This is why I'm not sure Leach's offense will work in the SEC. Most QB's with this type of average have a runninggame that generates average yardage and a host of TD's to go along with it. We don't have that. Our ENTIRE offense is through the air. This means that a QB in this system will need to provide at least 4 or 5 TD's per game, and have a near perfect completion percentage by themselves to guarantee a win. I just don't think that is possible.
361 yards passing per game sounds GREAT...except when you realize it's complemented by 45 yards per game on the ground.

Leach has been vocal the last 3 days about the need to stretch the field more

How is the qbr and passer rating above calculated? Obviously completion percentage, yards, lack of int, and completions don't weigh heavily. I'm guessing explosive plays or TD per attempt weigh heavily?

Yeah, there's nothing about our offense that has been "spectacular". Barely anything that's been "good".

We are 71st in the Country in Total Offense and we havent played an SEC game yet.

I heard Matt say this as well but he's wrong.
Going 10-11 for 70 yards on a drive isn't the same as going 3-6 for 70 yards on a drive.
Going 3-6 drastically lowers the chances of 17 ups and penalties that stall the drive while also showing you can rebound from a mistake.
Same yards, lower completion percentage, yet a much better/repeatable offense

I agree. Which is why Memphis hurts so much. That was almost a must win to get to 6.

Just in time for the best secondary we've seen all year

I said this in another thread, so please excuse if you?ve already seen it, but I think it applies here, too.
I have heard CML?s offense described as a death by papercuts. Annoys DCs with underneath stuff hoping they move to stop it, making them vulnerable in the middle and up top. That coach that OM had that?s now at UNC runs a variation of AirRaid and if you saw any of his games at OM, they stacked up stats from 20-20, but couldn?t score when the field compressed in the red zone. If Tamu didn?t hit for a long pass, they couldn?t score. The stats can be deceiving. Much like OM in a similar system, our stats look great on paper, but don?t really benefit us where it counts. I hate to say it, but I just don?t think one dimensional football can work unless everyone is one dimensional and they aren?t.

Can you link where it's called death by a thousand paper cuts?

No, sir. I didn?t read it, just heard it described that way by people speaking. I apologize, I didn?t mean to come across as if it were an article.

So, I searched it, and it seems to come from Washington State.
?Even with the ?death by a thousand paper cuts? machine that is the Air Raid, if a few of those cuts don?t draw blood, it can throw the whole operation off kilter.?

We eat up a hell of a lot of clock, so us scoring is imperative.

Minshew's PR was ranked around 30 (147.). He was #1 in attempts that year. The low PR is related to the offensive scheme.

Yea that was my thought, that it is largely scheme-dictated due to the attempts.
