[QUOTE="bravejason, post: 372623, member: 1069"] 1) QB --> Marshall has got to improve his passing ability. It looked OK early in the season, but in the second half his completion rate fell drastically. The team needs about a 50% completion percentage or better. While the WR and AB need to help by running good routes and the OL needs to help with better pass defense, I think Marshall is the weak link in the passing game right now. 2) AB --> I'm not worried. 3) WR --> I'm not worried. A future NFL player in this position can make a world of difference, but the offense runs fine without them. Just need good blockers and guys who run their routes well, though it does mean the QB has to be better in the passing game since he can't just lob it up and tell the WR to go get it. 4) PHIII is a nice addition to the team. He'd look even better with some improved punt return defense. 5) If we lose CTR, will xyz follow? I haven't got a clue. I hope Roof is recruiting excellent players. He needs them. The players can get lined up and they look like they understand the system and what they need to do (a big huge improvement over the Al Groh era). However, Roof seems to be doing the defensive equivalent of running the "NCAA Offense", so it comes down to having good players since there isn't a decided schematic advantage happening here (Granted, it is much harder to do that on defense than on offense). My complaint against Roof is that I don't think he is good at adapting the defense to his personnel. It's like it is the same defense no matter who is out there. Maybe he does and I just don't see it. I know people complain that CPJ doesn't adapt the offense either, but on offense I can see the playbook changing as the players change (the QB, notably) even though it is the same offense. [/QUOTE]
