    One of the major pillars of our head coach's QB coaching is his insistence on QBs checking down.

    The conundrum is that this is the correct way to develop QBs but it also heavily plays against you when you face teams that are more talented to you.

    We can't beat elite teams without taking risks & we don't have the talent to "execute" consistently against them.

    That's the one thing that Freeze did that allowed them to pull upsets. He took risks & chucked it.

    Sure some times you lose to Memphis when you do that, but it gives you a chance to beat more talented teams.

    Mullen is an outstanding coach & developer, but, as we saw tonight, when he is coaching against a sound, more talented defense, we can't score because the offensive structure is asking us to execute against more talented players.
