[QUOTE="GTFLETCH, post: 654005, member: 1668"] IMHO OC Patenaude has to develop a different play calling gameplan. 30yard passes on 3rd down is unwise. Throw more on 1st. Here's the goal: >45% passes on 1st down. Part of the 3rd down problem is that the offense is not getting enough yardage on 1st and 2nd downs. Here are the 13 third down plays: 3rd & 7 at GT 30 3rd & 8 at GT 31 3rd & 4 at GT 31 3rd & 7 at PITT 37 (converted) 3rd & 3 at PITT 18 3rd & 6 at GT 49 3rd & 15 at GT 15 3rd & 10 at GT 35 3rd & 8 at PITT 10 3rd & 8 at PITT 24 (converted) 3rd & Goal at PITT 4 (fumble) 3rd & 6 at GT 21 3rd & 8 at GT 13 That averages out to 7.2 yards needed on 3rd down, which is tough for any offense. I also think they need to come up with plays to get the ball in Tobias Oliver's hands. Let him run a series at quarterback for a change of pace. As a backup last year when he came in the other team knew he was going to run and not hand off and still could not stop him. Need to take advantage of his speed and running ability somewhere.
