Good coaches find ways to score points despite a an average at best line. Today was exhibit A as to what and how. Stefanski came in with a game plan with one o FC he worst starters and the league, two tackles out, and cleaned our clocks

They did nothing special, their team is physically tough and ours is not. What they did was have their version of Christian Kirk catch 3 or 4 crucial passes and have their lines bully ours.

It is special to find ways to gameplan and fit your strategy to the team. The packers did it today with Malik freakin Willis. They whipped up a winning game plan in six days. 

I’ll give you a perfect example where it truly is play calling. In the first half, not sure which series, ETN lost yards in a run. Guess what the next play was? A play action! Why would you call a play action when it’s clear there is NO threat of the run in that situation. You call play action when gashing with the run because at the point the defense is losing the guessing game. And it got Trevor leveled. 

On the safety; they called a five yard drop into our own end zone. That’s a situation you do a quick pass, something which we excelled at last year with Trevor healthy. He knows how to get the ball out fast and we have the horses to do it at receiver. 

The players are not executing, but Taylor is the one tying their hands behind their back. 

I’ve been in wait and see mode but we are now 1-7 since holding the #1 seed at 8-3. I personally think the sample size is large enough to know; Taylor and the offensive game plan is an integral part of why this team can’t get out of its way
