Is anyone complaining about Beck if we catch the freaking ball and Tommy completes on a simple screen pass? Not saying he's been stellar but he's not the reason we're behind. Outside of the penalty line really hasn't been bad either, hardly dominant but Tommy has usually had time. NW does have a good defense. You aren't going to gouge them when you have the mistakes we've had.

Beck's offense is just fine. We have the plays and the playmakers to make this offense work.

 

Total Offense - we're 10th in the country

Passing Yards Per Completion - we're 6th in the country

Rushing Offense - we're 5th in the country

Scoring Offense - we're 12th in the country

 

 

We HAVE the plays, we HAVE the playmakers. Beck's offense works.

 

 

 

What we lack, at the most inopportune times, is consistency. Kenny Bell doesn't drop passes - unless it's a critical time. Tommy Armstrong doesn't miss a wide-open receiver - unless it's a critical time. Ameer doesn't get tackled for no gain - unless it's a critical time.

 

 

 

 

What this team seems unable to do is rise to the moment. It takes them forever to get out of their own way - and as good as Beck's offense is, that's how bad his preparation is.

 

 

Everything works. Year Seven, we're still battling the demon between our own ears more than anything. And that's what sucks.
