Our Offense Going Forward
If the rumors that DHC is transferring here comes true, I have a lot of hope for this offense.
Our run game has the potential to be elite. We have a true thunder and lightning combination at RB, all 5 offensive lineman returning, 3 receivers who can run the jet sweep effectively, and a freak athlete at QB. Teams are going to have to respect that, and hopefully stack the box.
This would help create more one on one match-ups with our WR's. Last year our guys had to go up against defenses that would drop 7-8 every play. That made it hard for people to get open. If teams stack the box and sell out to stop the run, we should be able to get more open receivers than we did last year. Scarver and Thompkins have the speed, Nathan has the route running and quickness, and Mcgriff will win the jump balls.
If Shelly can do a decent job passing the ball, and our o-line can take the next step forward, we could turn some heads this year.
Also, say goodbye to 40 second 3 and outs.

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
I am happy about avoiding 40 second 3 and outs.
Hopefully the rest all comes together! Hopefully there is a season!

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
I personally see Shelly over Peasley, but either way we’ll have a freak athlete at Qb who will force defenses to stack the box.OrangeCountyAggie wrote: ↑July 19th, 2020, 10:53 pmPeasly will be the starting QB this season.AggieUprising50 wrote: ↑July 19th, 2020, 9:10 pmIf the rumors that DHC is transferring here comes true, I have a lot of hope for this offense.

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
Offense will be balanced for sure whichever QB steps-up to lead the pack and with that running game(power/speed), experienced O-line from what I am reading/hearing, WR's that have length on outside now and then some very fast, shifty experienced slots inside..and don't forget you have mix-depth at TE of blocking and athletic TE's as well (that create mis-matches and helps give RB's and WR's more space when safeties and LB's are worried about TE's who catch/run - well I may a little biased there lol)...

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
I think it's easy to look at Utah's offense and assume because GA was recently at Utah, that's what the offense will look like. I think a more apt comparison is 2011 and 2012. 2011 was a really good year for us offensively even if we turned conservative late in games. We had multiple TE sets, shifts, motion and a really balanced attack that featured the run. 2012 we got even more balanced with one feature back. @aggies22 , what do you know about the new OC and what hints at what the new offensive scheme does that provide?

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
I've said in previous threads that I expect a return to the offensive style of 2011 and 2012. I think that the personnel that we currently have and are recruiting points exactly to that. We now have a collection of true-dual threat QBs, a VERY solid group of RB's, a speedster at the slot, a big target WR outside and a possession guy lined up on the opposite side, we have several multi-dimensional TEs but I expect this group to get better next year and a young group of offensive linemen that will only continue to get better.Madmartigan wrote: ↑July 21st, 2020, 10:56 amI think it's easy to look at Utah's offense and assume because GA was recently at Utah, that's what the offense will look like.

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
I still worry about our lack of quality outside receivers. We desperately missed having jump-ball receivers last year. I'm not sure we have really addressed that. Thin at best.

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
The WR group is an area of concern. 2012 we didn't blow the world away with receivers but we had several solid guys. Austin for jump balls, Jacobs the speedy guy, and TVL for possession.aceofspadeskb wrote: ↑July 21st, 2020, 11:20 amI still worry about our lack of quality outside receivers.

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
I think we have some potential in our wr group, just not a lot of experience and returning production outside of Nathan and DT and Scarver. I think Ajani, Wright, and McGriff could be contributors. Should be a serviceable group. There may be a few others that could surprise as well. I feel better about our receivers this year than I did last year at this point. We did have Mariner and Repp but they were relative unknowns. Hopefully we have a few step up, which I think we will.

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
Like I mentioned before, if we can establish a solid run game, teams will have to stack the box. Which will create more one-on-one match-ups for our receivers, thus increasing their chance of getting open.Madmartigan wrote: ↑July 21st, 2020, 11:23 amThe WR group is an area of concern. 2012 we didn't blow the world away with receivers but we had several solid guys.

Re: Our Offense Going Forward
So is what people are saying is when we are 3rd and a few yards that we will have the option to both run and pass. Last year on 3rd and a few yards I had zero confidence running the ball especially from the shot gun and the slow hand off. Be nice to sustain drives some drive by converting 3rd and short.

Maybe I read that wrong!! I thought the OP was saying that we have the option to run or PASS and I was saying the person that was thrown to on the pass on 3rd and short was JORDAN (my #1 favorite person)
