Anybody blaming Moorhead or anybody else at MSU.....

[Cooterpoot]

I do not know if this offense does not have hot routes or if Fitz doesn?t know them but every single time we get blitzed it works for the team blitzing us in conference play. I realize it is easier to armchair qb, but there has to be an alternative to these long routes when we get a blitz. I would like someone to ask Moorhead what is happening on those plays because I honestly believe he would give a straight answer.

This^^. All any team has to do is blitz us. Our OL is confused. Hill can’t block or is running a route. Or we’re empty. Our OL is the most disappointing group on the team. It used to overachieve with lesser talent. It’s underachieving with better talent this year.

for this one needs to stop. I don't think we would have won the game no matter what, but the officiating in the first half proves we were not going to be allowed to compete in this game. How long is the rest of the SEC going to tolerate this crap? It's not like Bama actually needs the help. With it called straight up this is like a 21-7 or 14-7 game.

The SEC will put up with it as long as the MONEY flows. Bama will be protected at this point of the season. A ton of money is at stake.

All said and done, will they vote to give that ref a championship ring if it goes that far?. He deserves it as much as any player.

I'm not in anyway saying we would have won, but it sure would take the bad taste out of my mouth. I don't think Saban needs or wants that kind of outside help, his teams are too good.

Those referees would be like they had ear plugs in their ears if Bama called our snap count. So that is a possibility.

They have a History of doing that in Tuscaloosa. Caused us to lose back with Bond and Co. on the goal line. made Montgomery jump on the 1 yard line.

Moorhead's offense has absolutely nothing to do with Fitz's blatant inability to see 6 dudes blitzing inside his pants. He has some sort of odd tunnel vision in which he is completely unable to see the 6 guys sprinting straight at him while he does nothing at all to avoid them. That ain't Moorhead. That is ALL Fitzgerald.

Come on. When it is third down and you know the. Red Dog (notice old school for blitz) is coming , don't have a read--run a screen or dump to TE. If we ran the backs more the a play action might Help Fitz with his passing game. It is hard to get RBs touches when you are three and out.
But you know a Coach is a hard headed M'fer when you refuse to put your giant QB under center for a 1 yard sneak. I saw Jimbo do it 3 times yeasterday and all were successful. If Mond can do then you know Fitz can.

He wasn't a year removed from a broken ankle with no spring practice when the other guy was the coach. There's a check down option on every play. Moorhead can't make Fitz see the 6 dudes blitzing him but he should make him throw to the check down option when it does happen so for that I will agree it's on Moorhead for being a walking cactus on the sideline instead of getting on Fitz repeatedly about it.

You are easily the worst poster on this board.

Fitz has check downs all over the field. They're called read/option in this offense. It's way too complicated. The worst thing you can ask a football player to do, especially against a defense with the speed of Alabama's, is think/process/read and react. Last year's offensive philosophy was to let athletes make plays. This one is to take what the offense is giving you, and it's on the QB to determine during the course of the play what that is. It's not going to work in the SEC because defenses are too fast. Moorhead should know this, and his negligence has cost us a 10 win season.

I'm the worst poster on this board to you because I refuse to spit back acceptance for every dribble you leave on this board. Life is tough. Some people don't agree with everything you think pumpkin. Develop thicker skin princess. When the defense dictates you have less than 3 seconds to throw the ball you throw the ball. It's not rocket science yet Fitzgerald seems to want to make it that way. Throw the ball dude. What Moorhead is at fault for is not getting in Fitz's face about his inability to understand he MUST get rid of the ball. That is most definitely on Moorhead and I don't like the trend of his introverted nature dictating his coaching.

You negatively impact the intelligence level of this board every time you post. Invest in a "Football for Dummies" book or something, and stop wasting everyone else's time.

We don't practice any snaps under center at all. 100% shotgun. You can't just call a play that has never been practiced. Maybe they'll add it to the playbook, who knows.

Yeah, I guess a QB sneak is pretty complicated.

Hell no we wouldn't win with anybody at coach, hell our touchdown[s] don't even count against them.
