If a coach can't make any of those things happen then why have a coach. What you meant to say is that he has no impact but again you would be wrong. Pumpers like you are obvious to the reality seen by everyone around you.Ray Finkle said:

I'm not saying he has thrown a perfect game, you are absolutely right with that. There have been some key drops, much like against UK. Play calling has been good, opportunities have been there, and it's not all Driskel. What's the other option if he is so bad?VulcanAlex;55566 said:

It's not all on Driskel, that's for sure. Dunbar dropped a sure first-down toss, we've totally effed up our coverage and there's been zilch pass rush on Sims. But you have to ask yourself if the coaches got us as ready as we could for this game. We are not a very good football team right now.

The defense has done well creating turnovers, but we have no pass rush and can't cover anyone. We need points...so let's just run the clock out with all 3 timeouts remaining. Excellent coaching strategy.
Only reason we are in the game are because of their 2 fumbles. Thank the Defense. The Offense has stalled pretty much the whole half. The D should not be expected to be perfect. The O, however, should be expected to move the ball once in a while. The reasons for the Offense being so inept can be blamed on various factors. But I would give the Alabama D some credit. They have been able to disrupt Driskell's flow. If he were a bit better, he might make a play on his own. But till now, he is not a play maker. I am hoping he shows why he was a 5 star in the second half.

It's called lack of execution...... we have it on both sides of the ball, especially defense.
I expected the offense to struggle but I really didn't think we would allow 2, 80 yard completions in the whole game much less the 1st half.
You guys can focus on JD all you want but he isn't the reason we are behind.
But.... He isn't playing well, again.

I have been supportive of Driskel, because I didn't think he had a chance to show anything last year. Well, I am officially off the Driskel bandwagon. He's not that QB that takes over and wins games. He looks like he's never played in a big game and he does nothing to pump up the offense - no leadership. It's like he is concerned with himself and that's it. The OL has actually played pretty good and given him time to throw the ball, but, he hesitate s or gets too anxious and overthrows wide open receivers. We just look like we are intimidated, all the way around and the lack of pass rush is no good. Their OL is killing our DL.
Look, I get that it is not ALL his fault but our QB is our leader and when he sucks it spreads like a disease. How can he go get in the face of his receivers and tell them to stop dropping when he is overthrowing and looks like a deer in headlights.deuce said:
