You're high. What part of the BW mechanics have you missed this year. Also at what point did you actually think that Ozzy was scheming correctly to set up plays. We had one of the best TE's in the league and utilized him in the last couple games how many times? Obviously, Ozzy skipped Ad's scheming class every darn day.
Just because BW can throw it 900 mph doesn't mean that he is best man for job. We used to ***** about Bolles 1.0 and 2.0 for locking on the receiver and never checking down. Maybe that is the D2 level of QB's
re: the scheme this offense has functioned for a while w/ the pass setting up the run. we didn't/don't have the kind of line that can just run all over the opp when said opp isn't lindenwood. poor qb play has killed more drives than anything else i've observed this season. i think below average qb play is our biggest problem.
i assure you we agree that the blame falls at the feet of the offensive coaching staff.
i just dk that it's as simple as poor scheme/play calling although there's no question that that has been an issue, an ongoing one at that. frankly it's the coaches resp to fix all of it.
no argument on the te....seems we've underutilized him for awhile as well.Go Bearcats!
M-I-Z-Z-O-U!

Let's take a step back here folks. How many qb's at NW started for two years BEFORE they were a Junior? As a fan of another team that is tired of seeing NW consistently at the top of the league and in the playoffs every year, I can not come up with anyone off the top of my head. So given that FACT, most qb's at NW began their careers as juniors and a few saw duty as sophomores. Given this FACT, is the NW fan's frustration more about BW, the coaching staff OR the FACT that for he first time since forever, NW did not have a qb in waiting? Just wondering.
I will make a case with two HALL OF FAME QB's, Troy Aikman and Peyton Manning. Both started all 16 games their first year in the league and were atrocious. So why did they struggle so mightily their first year? Well, because they were put into duty and learned the hard way on the field. The same can be said for BW. Is he growing as a QB? Who knows. Some flashes are there but consistency isn't. His playoff success effectively ended after the first drive of the Harding game this year. Does that mean the same is going to happen next year or the year after that? No one knows. One can complain about the coaching etc, but I didn't see the play makers on the outside that NW has had for years. Why? Don't know. Maybe it's time for NW to be looking for a JUCO kid to come in and compete for the qb job. IF that is the case, again, i can not recall a JUCO qb coming in and taking over the reigns since the "Big Daddy" Vern Thompson era and that's a LONG TIME AGO.
After hearing Gary Danielson go on-and-on all afternoon about how Georgia struggles to score, all I could think of is NW. Great defense but struggles to score against top defenses. As a fan I would take that year-in/year-out success all day long. Good season by NW and now it's on to recruiting and looking forward to next August.

Game summary...
Ferris D very good and NW Offense anemic and could not have scored a TD had their lives depended on it!
NW D very good, but couldn't overcome ****ty field position ands being held by Ferris OL and WRs on 75% of the plays.
Ferris 11-12 yd. gains should have been 10 yd. losses (not exaggerating, watch the replay).
Final should have been Ferris 3-0.Last edited by GoCatsGo5; 12-08-2019, 08:51 AM.

When both fail to learn from their mistakes is the time to be concerned.
