Having seen the Lindsey offense for two weeks now, I have some concerns. The running game has looked good, but there seems to be something missing, some sync, some aggressiveness, and some spark. I’m certain we haven’t seen close to the whole playbook, but two problems seem glaring to me:
1) We have a Heismann caliber QB and we throw a ton of dinky outs to our receivers and rarely look to stretch the field. A 3rd teamer can do that. Maybe it’s because our WR’s simply can’t get open, though Drake has had a fair amount of time and not much pressure to go through his progressions. But a huge majority of the calls are these flares to the edge. Drake can sling it. Let him.
2) Wildcat?? Seriously? Twice? On 4th down instead of using your Heisman caliber QB who can run and sling it keeping the defense guessing? Simply being too cute and trying to make a statement, the wrong kind in my opinion.
Thoughts?
