Playcalling has been an issue here since we had urban Meyer.  We haven't been creative since we had Hackett which is pretty sad.

I don't think calling better plays would have yielded a better result.  The problem was poor run-blocking and bad defense.  When you can't reliably run the ball and you can't stop the other team on defense, the quarterback has an impossible job.

There were a few situations where playcalling absolutely killed us, in particular the Browns safety.

I think the way we routinely opened flat suggested that playcalling and/or game prep was distinctly lacking. So yeah, had we been able to come out of the gate and put some points on the board with any consistency, results may have differed.
