Message: [QUOTE="javadoc, post: 3140003, member: 338"] Total amateur take here, but it sure looks like the O-line doesn't know what it is doing. I doubt that our guys are so bad physically that they can get whipped with the regularity we are seeing. I suspect that we don't have effective communication of the overall design of the offense, effective instruction in technique, and that (lacking a playbook, right?) there is too much emphasis on fast, dynamic in-the-moment decisions on what to do. Maybe our OL doesn't have the "game smarts" or "football IQ" or whatever you want to call it, to be effective in that kind of environment. Am I wrong? It seems the guys clearly don't know what they are supposed to be doing, frequently. Are the coaches making it too hard to succeed? [/QUOTE]
