All I have heard is this new offense is gonna be perfect for punishing teams who try to double team Tee and Darel.There is not many if any that will beat either for a jump ball if the QB throws it high instead of at the numbers.So when they double them the run game opens up with backs going everywhere.But when your in a scrimmage and the score dont matter you are working on everything but Tee and Darel and defeats the whole purpose of new offense making it look worse than it is.Also cut blocking should be a lot easier than blocking in spread.Thats how Georgia Southern ran all over a great Florida defense with a way better and bigger line.Cats will Roll.

You understand the premise. The degree of successful execution is the unknown.

It was really a shot at the Alcoa end zone colors, and like a witness at a Senate hearing, ABB avoided the issue.

Doubling both still leaves 7 in the box. We couldn't block five last year. So why do we think we can suddenly block seven?

 

If this offense is the fix, why weren't we running it last year?

 

If scrimmage scores don't matter, why did we have one of our best defensive players in as a third string RB the other day that got hurt?

 

Just curious.

I believe you may have oversimplified the situation. Especially question #2.

 

1. There are other passing options than the two wideouts. The two outer running backs are in the slot position to begin with. Wheel routes with isolation on a linebacker have been open. As well as pop passes to the slots and rollouts with a fullback drag. I wholeheartedly hope others put seven in the box.

 

2. Why does anyone change anything? New car that I didn't have last year. New accountant that I didn't have last year. New menu at Applebee's.  The staff determined with their knowledge (input praise or insult here) of the returning players that this is their choice of offense this year.

 

3. The defensive player that was hurt was getting his offensive practice reps. Most all of the better players were getting offensive reps. I don't feel the objective of the scrimmage was to score more points than Mo. West. If that were the mission, the Cats play calling would have been different. They identified weaknesses and kept trying to correct it. Especially the dive play.

1. I hope you're right, but we didn't seem to have time to let routes develop in the passing game. Anything more than a 3-step drop usually had the QB running for his life.

 

2. I understand your point, but that IMO speaks to the staff being unorganized and/or not properly evaluating their talent either last year, this year, or both. Given that we return the vast majority of our skill players from last year, losing a year of continuity hurts. I'll be honest and say that this might be the best offense (although I have my doubts). However, if it is the best offense for this year, then we should've been running it last year.

 

3. Unless that defensive player is in serious contention to get offensive reps, playing him for the sake of playing him on offense is ludicrous. We saw exactly what that can get us, because now we won't have him for a few weeks at all.

Valid points. I'm still trusting the staff to make the best decisions based on all variables. I know a little about football, but I don't think I'd make a good head coach.

 

And best of all, my player LOVES this offense and playing on this team.

      OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.

      They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that.

      The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.

      I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
