How many offensive players actually got better this year?

[Alsacs]

1. Sean Tucker is one.

What other players who play offense will be better for the experience they got this year?

I say this because our coaches on offense suck.
The talent can’t be an excuse when coaching is worse.

Cooper Lutz! Young man could be a weapon out of the backfield in the passing game in my humble opinion.

I was thinking Cooper also and probably throw Anthony Queeley out there

I guess you could say Elmore too since he was never expected to play OL.

Lutz and Queeley clearly improved.
My point was this was supposed to be a development year and Dino wasted a lot of playing time on players who aren’t the future.

The O is a mess and it is hard to see it being much different next year. All five years we have struggled to run the ball consistently. Why will next year be different? All five years the QB has been under constant pressure. Why will that be different?

The OL could have 3 new starters next year so it could take a few games for them to gel. And that is assuming that they are better than our previous OLs. Who will be QB next year? Will we still be without a big bodied down field WR threat / true #1? Will Nykeim be back and if not who replaces him?

We could be very young and/or very inexperienced on O next year. That isn't the formula for success. It seems like we are two years away from a decent O again.

This is a prime example of Dino not giving young guys meaningful minutes. Lutz is a kid who would thrive on third down in this offense. Tucker was ineffective. Call other plays. Use Lutz as an extremely poor man's Alvin Kamara who just catches the ball out of the backfield. Even if you are gaining 3-5 yards a play its just a variation of the run game.
