and our receivers are dropping key passes that are happening at key moments. Does that mean we would have won? No, but they change the complexion of the game.
And Lake is right, this offense is easy for them to defense. They keep everything in front of them and make Leach string together 17 play drives. If anyone can do it as a play caller it is Leach, but we saw twice we stalled at the goal line.
Leach has such a firm belief in his offense he is a but stubborn. Why is it Peterson can have a trick play or two, and when was the last time we had one? We don't. After Saturday I am thinking as long as Peterson is in Seattle, we may not win another Apple Cup. Maybe Leach should stop with the mantra this is just another game. We have played scared for the last four years.
Sometime it is better to be lucky than good. we played Oregon, OSU, Arizona, ASU and UCLA with their back up QB's. We played CU last year with a back up QB. This year we played CU and UW with their starters and got handled in the UW game, and couldn't stop CU.
And I agree with Socal. Leach has done a good job on the oline. His receivers are functional. But losing Cracraft had the impact on the offense that I knew it would. Is he fast? No. But he is adept at finding the holes. Getting key third downs. Working the middle of the field to open up the outside.
The runningbacks are good as well. We are now short on Dt's. They are functional but as we saw on Saturday the difference between their dline and ours. Our linebackers are slow and we are slow in the secondary. Why no Jason David? Trufant? John Rushing? Torey Hunter? Eric Coleman. Are they looking at the right guys?
Food for thought.
