scheme or coaching issue. It is that dreaded execution that is their problem. He said so in the last paragraph.

Jones is too scared of failure to put his offensive skill players in a position to succeed until forced to when behind. If you do not call plays that allow the QB to throw the ball more than 10 yards downfield when the defense is crowding the line, how can you expect to win. How can you expect to win when OL blocking is non-existent? OL either gets overpowered or outrun by smaller players or just overpowered. Yes is is scheme when you do not call a play or adjust if your WRs do not catch the ball. Execution is a problem when the coaching staff fails abysmally to train the team on how to win. If the player you select to be on the field does not perform, it is the failure of the coach. You selected to sign him. You coached him through the week. You praise him about "such a good week in practice". Then he goes out on Saturday and looks lost. It is coaching, not execution.

Spot on 73Volgrad......Has it been odd to anyone else that in our 3 bowl games under Butch that our offense goes ball out? We see plays we didn't see all season....we see formations, play calls, letting athletes be athletes and we wonder where has that been? The the next season we are back to running between the tackles and throwing 3 yard outs!  It appears in bowl games Butch knows there is no tomorrow so lets let it all hang out but when there is a tomorrow you couldn't drive a 10 penny nail up Butch's ass.
