I feel like I remember on more than one occasion defenders crashing on Vedral and Cam holding his own against their DT at the original line of scrimmage. It was, now we just need consistency. And things should get better. 1 Quote Link to comment

Nope, and from what I saw (I wasn't watching him every play), he held his blocks pretty well. The two guards and tackles on the other hand..... Yikes Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Just a theory here. I'm betting that in practices that the delayed RB screen plays to Wan'Dale look pretty awesome because our front seven is just plain bad. Then in game situations when we face a smart defense where each player is maintaining his space and reading the play intelligently, our offense just can't block. Watching that play fail over and over this season has been miserable. 2 Quote Link to comment

So we know our defense sucks- maybe it all makes sense why our offense is so horrible. Because even South Alabama has a better defense than us. So we were not prepared to play anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, that was my basic line of thinking. The thing about those RB screen plays is that you don't need the biggest, strongest Wisconsin-style linemen to execute that play. You just need five guys and a tight end that are well prepared and look for a chip block after a certain 'count' after the snap. It's just so infuriating because both Wan'Dale & Washington are the perfect kind of players to run that play with...but a safety comes in and just crushes our RB unblocked. Quote Link to comment
Husker in WI Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 There was a screen this last week that actually looked good, but Jurgens needed to peel back and find a guy to block. He kept going downfield where only one defender (already blocked) was. I think that's just a new to the position mistake. But yeah in general the screens have been bad. 1 Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Another thing that's a bit confusing is why Frost calls so many inside zones when Washington is in there. I can understand the idea that the opponent will think you're running outside the tackles when he's in, so then you do the opposite...but man, he just isn't built for that kind of running and it takes a pretty quick toll on his body. When we come back from our bye week, I'd love to try something different and start Mills. Give him some outside power tosses in our two tight end sets. 5 Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 What if we just take out all the offensive lineman and insert 5 receivers/runningbacks and have them all go out for a pass like youth flag football? Im game. Time to revolutionize football Quote Link to comment

I get it, it's a grind and a break is nice, but you don't often hear guys on a team talking like that. Am I reading too much into that? maybe, but i dont think so. Something has seemed 'off' with this team and i frequently find myself wondering if something is going on in the locker room between players or with coaches. 2 Quote Link to comment

One issue that I think plays into it is the selected captains have not been proving their leadership on the field. 2 2 Quote Link to comment
