He doesn?t change the play, that?s Moorehead.

I get the impression that Joe's offense is designed to run wide open. There is no dumbing down. If it's not running wide open it doesn't work. It's like taking a wheel off a Formula One car and then telling the driver to go race it.

I realize getting the play calls in with 5 seconds to spare is Moorhead. But Moorhead's offensive philosophy is supposed to be a read for the QB to be able to make a decision - one which Fitz seemingly isn't making well. That's why I'm saying Fitz shouldn't be given an option. The RPO needs to become a called run or pass.

If that's the case it sounds like a change in QB is the only option.

Problem is we don't have that QB in SVegas.

That might be true, but we will never know for sure if nobody else has the chance.

4 QBs and not a damn one of them has a clue how to run Joe's offense or at the very least can pass a catchable ball over twenty yards.
But that's on Mullen recruiting his Tebow clones.

Everything is the QBs fault. Except when it's Mullen's fault. LOL

Dak's the only Tebow clone that has worked out for Mullen. Tyler Russell could pass like sum bitch but he ran like a giraffe with diarrhea.
But really, 4 QBs and the best one has no clue what he's doing in this offense. So it appears we have Radio, Forrest Gump, Simple Jack and Corky all playing QB. No, something else is going on.

Call the players stupid. Nice. Nothing is on Moorhead... Curious though, why did Moorhead say no one had picked his offense up this quick preseason?

No, I'm not calling them stupid!!!
Did you not read this: No, something else must be going on.
Damn, 7.

I can relate. I'm just happy as hell the Saints are winning right now.
I just can't believe we don't have one QB on the roster that kind of gets the offense and can throw a catchable ball 20 yards. This why I think Joe is going all in with Schrader next year. It will be ride or die.

I just remember watching Freeze?s first year team against Bama.....Yeh Bama beat them 2 td?s but OM got after their butt and the older Kim brother really showed out. Point being he took a weak team (before the money train got really going) and had a competitive team...think they also whipped ******* behind (Can?t remember if he was searching for a job yet)......I really like JM......it?s just such a shame.....

And while you bring up UCONN, well that vaulted offense has 335 yds in the 11 fiesta bowl agianst Oklahoma. Let?s face it we made a bad hire and you can say all you want about time to get his players but it won?t matter he is a below average coach
It's vaunted. Additionally, you used literally 3 data points out of over 100 and call that point proven? Forgive me if I don't call that game over.
His offense isn't being implemented right now. We at least can agree with that. So why judge the man based on something he can't do?

Bama beat Freeze by 3 TD’s his first year 33-14

Again, you can choose to look at this intelligently or like a meat head
His track record is Fordham not penn State he is head coaching in the hardest division in college football the SEC West. He is an idiot and your the same if you really believe he is an SEC coach.

We have guys getting open, Fitz just does a terrible job of seeing the defense and getting through progressions. He sometimes makes it to his second option but most of the time it seems like he is making his decision on where the ball is going to go pre snap and just doesn't adjust at all to what the defense does post snap.
The comparison to Tua is absurd. The guy has a month to find which receiver is wide open. Fitz has about 1.5 seconds, he has no time. Our pass blocking is amazingly bad.

Good analogy. Not only that but his receivers are like a covey of quail when they burst off the line and they're open almost instantaneously. And they catch everything within 5 yards of them.
