Mullen offense playbook

Wow, you're saying you need great players to win titles? Consider my mind blown.

Shyt, here comes AR to tell us talent doesnt matter and Southern Miss and Cowbell will win an NC any day now.

It obviously doesnt take much. The op link talks a lot about scheme, blocking, reading, etc like that is an easy fix. Scheme is fine. We need better players.

Of course it isnt anything even slightly earth shattering.

But people throw a fit everytime we run an option w Trash, the tackle lets the DE free...who smashes Peerine in the backfield. So we hear about "Peerine dancing and the tackle sucks."

Or why zone running plays are being used, and not particularly effectively.

Did you happen to miss Trask keeping on a option play this past Saturday and having a nice little gain? If he does that a few more times, Perine might not get smashed in the backfield quite as often.

Yes, once out of thirty plays, he makes them pay. The rest of the time the DE hits Peerine in the backfield. He isn't too fast. Neither was Wuerffel and plenty of other QBs.

Frankly, Im kind of glad the run game isn't working bc if it were, Dorky Dan would be running 85% of the time.

I just wish he'd throw medium passes (behind the backers) instead of sideways and use Trash more.

He's learning on the job. He's done a better job of stepping up into the pocket and avoiding pressure lately. Not perfect by any means, but improving. Maybe he's actually realizing he needs to keep on those option plays where nobody bothers to worry about him. We can hope, right?

Every time Giraffe dropped back and didn't see his first read open, I cringed.

Every time Trash runs, I cringe.

Look at it this way. If he gets hurt, all the EJ fan bois will be happy.

Trask needs to learn how to get down and slide, or at least how to absorb the contact and fall.

For all of Franks’ faults, his ability to deliver or absorb a hit wasn’t one of them.

I 100% agree about Franks’ not having his first read, my pucker factor was always above 10 when he started getting the happy feet when the first read wasn’t there.

Could be worse...you could watch Del Taco run that play action on 3rd and long or better yet the naked boot to the right which got his shoulder separated and ribs broke twice....

 

[Bushmaster]

If alabama recruited players for the wishbone and they were talented enough, yes.

It's not scheme, its players.

Alabama runs a more pro style offense and can win NCs. Clemson and OSU run a different scheme tan Alabama and can wi NCs.

Players.

If you want to misrepresent what I said, you can play smart ass with someone else. Not interested.

I hear better talent wins 82.6% of the time. Mind blowing.

P.S. hat tip to @ThreatMatrix for all the hard work.

I’m saving this post forever. @ltraz called Mullen elite in something. I might faint.

 

[Bushmaster]

You are just being obtuse. If it was scheme, everybody would run the "best" scheme. Mcelwain ad chump and willie would run the same stuff Mullen runs.

But here is a crazy ass dea. Mullen just might be a better COACH than those 3 clowns.

Did you watch the LSU and UGA games? Outcoached in both by two guys with a combined IQ of around 80.

 

[t-gator]

Maybe while Urban just looked for a spot to win, Dan was waiting for UF?

This is what I think. He just knew the 3rd time was gonna be the charm

Yes, with loaded teams. Burrow may win the Heisman and UGA has like 15 5 star players. Who on our team would start for those 2? Like 3 on our defense and maybe a wr and Pitts on offense?

Want comparing mullen to either of them.
