Dungey is far from the main reason Syracuse is averaging 39.2 ppg. Sadly, we've reached the point where he's holding the O back due to his poor passing ability. Opposing defensive coordinators have finally figured it out.

Even in the first four games, we would cringe at the passing offense and wonder when it would catch up to us. 7 of 17 passing against WMU. 7 of 15 against FSU.

Not only is Dungey seemingly incapable of consistently throwing an accurate pass at this point, but his mental game is shot as well. Once his first read is covered, he's a train wreck. Sacked four times today.

From a purely throwing standpoint, Dungey's regression reminds me a bit of Andrew Robinson. Suddenly his body just forgot how to throw the football.

Fortunately, Dungey can still contribute - just not as the full-time starter at QB. Put him in to run the read-option on a consistent basis. Get him some reps as H-Back/TE/RB. He's still a very talented athlete and can help. But he's way too limited as a passer to give him the majority of snaps from center when you have a better option on the roster.
