Is it just me, or has the offensive play calling progressively regressed since the Hawaii game? Did we run the option even once yesterday? Maybe one reverse? Did we set up anything at all, then execute it?
Also, along the same lines as a comment I made yesterday, it doesn’t do us much good to design an offense around a running quarterback if you aren’t going to turn him loose to run. Wright doesn’t need to be looking to slide - he needs to be looking to blaze. That’s why we have back up QB’s. Mike has a unique skill - but the coaches (and/or Mike) have to be willing to use it without reservation.
