Interesting stats but will dive a little deeper at lunch tomorrow when afforded more time and energy and will compare some full seasons against full seasons to get a complete dataset on both sides. You may be right.
Yet either way I still want the run game to get going and believe it will equate to more points, wins, and open up the passing game.
Said all offseason that running the ball was the key to our success this year per they were going to play us like we did Mahomes. You argued well against it each time and that's ok because I learned some things.
I've offered stats to show this is happening right now and all of a sudden you disagree with #'s, and that's ok too. There is more than one way to skin a cat and sure your #'s will come fruition by the seasons end, but presently they're not imho.
You have no reason to apologize. I’m terribly sorry to hear that and I hope your family is okay.
Regarding football, I want the run game to get going. It does have value and it is absolutely abysmal right now. One thing to keep in mind about last year, however, is that Cincinnati had one of the most dangerous passing attacks in the league despite having one of the worst rushing attacks in the league. Cincinnati is actually a good example of how they don’t affect each other much.

Thank you and she has been having issues for awhile now unfortunately.
But oddly that bad rushing attack last season was a full ypc more than this year which shows how abysmal it actually is presently.
Damn $70 million dollar upgrade
Yet do think the O-line is about to get this going soon and pay dividends. Just needs to be sooner rather than later or we will be down to a one year window before being forced to trim the fat to pay Joe.

Do you know where they said this? I missed it and I’m trying to look for it.

It was in the locker room postgame vs Ravens, but not exactly in the context as is being stated here.

They used the break to switch from wide zone to gap scheme. It will take a couple more weeks but they looked good on many plays. We are simply not athletically talented enough on the oline to win with wide zone - gap is more vertical power and we have guys built for this.

I get being conservative, but this kid won a state championship at a school that had never won it. He has a decent arm, and by all accounts is calm under fire and very smart. Just let him throw the damn thing a bit. Not run a double reverse on play 1 that results in a fumble that sets your opponent up on the 4 yard line going in.
It is weird, don't understand not using players to their strengths. It happens with us a lot, at least on Offense.
Sounds like it is also happening at Kentucky and on a lot of teams in college and in the NFL this year.

Yeah, but he has to say that. There are offensive coaches that are on a lot higher level with much less talent to work with.

That's generally the stance that I take. I am not going to go out and say that ZT is a mastermind or that he is putting guys in 100% optimal situations to succeed. I am not qualified to break down plays and schemes at that level, and very few others on here are, if anyone. The players have to go out and execute, and that is a bit easier to diagnose. That hasn't been happening.
We can complain and point fingers at the coach all we want but at the end of the day, the players play ball.

Too funny.....vague comment=definitive proof that players are turning on the coaches.
Direct comment about players responsibility regarding play calls= they have to say that.

Me too. There's no doubt bad play calls are made in each game. There's also no doubt poor execution blows several plays up each game. It's not as black and white as some would have you believe

Right im sure Execution breaks some plays. But if that execution is poor consistently you either gotta practice it to perfection or avoid using it. (even if the %'s says it works for some teams)

True, which makes me feel better about this being able to get fixed. It isn't only play calling that is for sure.

Ehh, he probably feels the same, he's not the dude to come out and say it. Jay Morrison asked Boyd if he was surprised Mixon didn't get 1 carry from the 2 yard line and he said "Absolutely " it's on Jay's twitter...

I kinda agree.. Just pissed and the players haven't looked happy at all during games this year. Maybe I read to much into it and want them too call Zac out..

Except that before the Browns extended Zac they thoroughly interviewed Joe and the key players. Good idea to make sure Joey Franchise was on board but it’s Joe’s parents who Zac’s really resonated with.
