GG Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Just pointing out that they telegraphed they were not going to run the ball in their first position. What were their first 3 plays? When in the past have they not run on the first play from scrimmage? This past Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 They called plays as if the QB was good. We know the OL could have help him more and the receivers did have some drops, but an NFL-quality QB would have wrecked the Texans with this gameplan.

Might have worked if Sammy didn't drop the second one that hit him right in the hands that would have set up 3rd and 2. How come all of a sudden Sammy drops several passes per game?

Maddog69 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Say what you want, I'll take the players' word for it. Mike Williams called out the coaches. Said they never adjusted the play calling to the defense Houston was running. Hackett kept calling plays designed against Zone while Houston played press/man the whole game. And don't argue that I don't know what I'm seeing. This was Mike Williams who said it. Another player also said that Houston did things all day that they were not prepared for and were not in the game plan. We got outcoached again. Might have worked if Sammy didn't drop the second one that hit him right in the hands that would have set up 3rd and 2. How come all of a sudden Sammy drops several passes per game? He's soft and fragile like the other Clemson "superstar" we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come all of a sudden Sammy drops several passes per game? I'm going to make a completely unsubstantiated, speculative guess on this one: Because Robert Woods' lousy attitude has rubbed off on him. He's too willing to throw his hands up and B word that the pass wasn't right on the money. I understand his body language has left something to be desired (ditto Woods), and I've said in other threads, both of them (and all the receivers for that matter) need to stfu and deliver when called upon. Until they play perfectly, they have no business demanding perfection from EJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog69 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Maybe they are not upset with EJ as much as the terrible play calling and design of the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enlightener Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 The play calling was fine. The play calling would have beaten the Texans soundly if EJ found and hit his wide open receivers. Maybe then the running game would have been more effective if the Texans had to worry about the passing. wrong the plays have routes putting wrs next to eachother, at times no outlet pass, no midrange option, few crossing patterns, mostly fades/streaks and hooks. totally stupid route selections. hacket is an idiot, he always has a wasted first down run for 2 yards as well.
