[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 11115, member: 195"] I just re-watched the first 3 quarters of the VPI game for the first time. I got just as angry about the stupid stuff as I did watching it live. Stupid stuff aside, a couple of things stand out to me from the last two games. The first is probably the lesser of the two problems. It seems to me that Vad's option reads are inexplicably inconsistent. He'll seem to make some really good reads and then make decisions that seem to have no explanation other than that he decided what he was going to do before the play started. If so, that makes me wonder about the apparently good reads. Frankly, I think he can make the reads fine, but wonder whether, for whatever reason, he is not trusting himself to make them. His pocket presence and passing is really at the level of Tevin in 2010, imo. I know that if Tevin had QB'd our last two games he'd be crucified on some of our message boards. Again, I suspect that it's just inside the head issues rather than ability. I just hopes he comes in against Miami, calmed down and more in focus. The second is the more serious concern to me (and has been for a few years). I think our OL likes to run on autopilot. That is to say, that I wonder whether the success of our system has led them to a complacency of just doing what normally works rather attacking the D that's in front of them. Again, 8 times out of 10 it will probably still work and the O will be successful, but when the D doesn't cooperate, we don't adjust well. While I'm a defender of our O-Line for their ability to often beat and match-up with more highly regarded DL, this would be my critique of Sewak's coaching, that he seems to let them get away with this. Now, I offer these observations with all the caveats of just a fan, not an experienced coach, but what do y'all think? DressedCheeseSide, maybe you can get stylee or steebu to read these observations and make me feel better by telling me that I'm full of crap. [/QUOTE]
