Evidently, the backstroke...Should have been a seven word article..." What the hell is Kill doing here? "
Ha! You flatter yourself and this board.basically what has been said here

Well, as FrogAbroad noted, we don't break out the word "ancillary" nearly enough. Other than that...what did he say that hasn't been covered on this board?
Parker tweeted the exact numbers the other day. Roughly a third of his passes are not beyond the line of scrimmage sometimes more, sometimes less.Would be interesting to know how many of Duggan's passes are thrown less than 3 yards downfield. It's a staple of the offense but they just hardly ever seem to work. I'm sure I'm missing some plays, but I can't really remember a screen or quick out to a WR (or whatever fancy name you want to give that play) getting more than a few yards. A HIGH percentage of them get blown up near the LOS, they don't fool anyone anymore.
I don’t think he’s ever coached or for that matter played a down of football, but his breakdown of TCU the offense was exceedingly better stated and objective than the rantings I’ve seen here. Nevertheless, I shouldn’t have appeared to attack you or the board...it was just interesting to read an analysis that wasn’t so jaded.what did he say that hasn't been covered on this board?
Maybe so, but I too would like to know what we were thinking on the Pro Wells screen. Bunch formation, spring him out for a pass, he catches it and immediately cuts back to the middle of the field. Seriously, what was the idea there other than just to throw him a pass you know he'll catch just to keep him involved and "happy".
The running back pentavirate has less rhythm than Navin R. Johnson.I agree that we sub in too many players . No running back can get going or in rhythm.

Our offense makes me feel like a fat kid trapped in a ginger bread house. There does not seem to be a good way out.
no offense taken by me in your comments though you are right in applying those thoughts to countryfrog. he is basically the steel of breakfast foods.
ian did and does provide a great deal of detail..
simply the core of what he wrote:
all get covered in the game threads by a number of posters as well as during the week, but i do agree the specific examples and video were helpful
- lack of a cohesive scheme
- grab bag play calling
- too many people involved in the process
- offensive line problems
- a receiver and running back rotation that is confusing at best and breaks any flow
- a failure to target and maximize the abilities of certain players
do think the most recent podcast from jeremy and billy might be of interest to you as well on this matter (the frogs' offense and not ian's work}
Personally, I do not think his coverage was unfair, just to the point with maybe a little broad brush. Kill has turned out to be a joke as he came in here and by his own words, "i'm a fixer."
A question that has perplexed me for many seasons, how can GP, being an elite DC as he is, focused on dissecting offensive formations and tendencies, not know a damn thing about offense? How is this possible?
I didn’t read it so have no opinion on whether it was fair or unfair and frankly I don’t care either way. I don’t need an “analysis” of the Frog offense. My eyes are fully capable of seeing and the outputs and outcomes are sufficient “analysis” for me.
