We could lead the conference in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns next season and he'd still be PISSED b/c we aren't throwing it enough.
I think the problem is we have fans with PTSD from the pre-Mullen days that aren?t aware that it IS a possibility to have an offense that can run AND throw the ball too. I know that didn?t happen much during the Felker/Sherrill/Crooms regime but Merlins showed that you CAN have a run based offense that STILL has a 2500+ yard passer. Chris Relf was statistically better than ANY QB those 3 previous coaches ever fielded.

We just need a segment of our fans to leave the 80s and realize that modern offenses go way beyond 3 yards and a cloud of dust led by a QB that can?t hit the broad side of a barn.

Hell there are offenses these days that can run for 2000 and pass for 3500 easily in todays game. Crooms and Sherill couldn?t have put those numbers up in 2 seasons.
