I feel you but I'm a strong believe of "execution"
Them games when AD was running crazy yards..... Everyone and they momma be knowing damn well the Vikes are running..... They put 30 guys in the box, but when properly and perfectly executed, dude stilled crushed defenses.
The so called great Manning and Brady, when they do what they do to D's, yes.... Maybe the play calling is decent but when it comes down to it, it's all about the execution
our offense hasnt been able to consistently execute in passing game since Garcia and TO were here tho
in run game we were able to execute tho, but against weaker teams. here and there we also execute against weaker teams on pass O and it works when everything clicks, happened in 2011, happened in 2012 and this year.
against stronger teams tho, individual players effort isnt enough. this is where playcalling comes in, to cater to your players strengths and play chess with the opposing D. and thats where we absolutely struggle. good teams also have lots of talent on their side AND they have good playcalling and in-game adjusting
I agree that in this particular game it looked more on players than playcalling. BUT. it's telling that the coaching staff still attempted no solution at resolving dumb playclock problem, that its not doing enough to remedy the sorry ass offense. this problem is so stupid and with right amount of practice and changing something in the process, it should be gone in two-three weeks. it has plagued us since 2011. I think it speaks volumes about coaching staff. Harbs is great, but his stubbornness tends to hurt us already. He hired Roman at Stanford before 2009 I think, so I doubt he lets him go.
