Haywarduck Moderator No. 9 Share Posted December 16, 2021 The RB always being the team leader in rushes. A 1,000 yd. receiver and other guys getting regular catches. The qb being, at least, in the conversation for the Heisman on somebody's board. The defense having no, or few injuries, and it will take care of itself. A pundit states 'Oregon's offense is back!' which would pretty much mean all of the above is done. Lastly we never have to hear about how good the dawgs were in the past.

Jon Joseph Moderator No. 14 Share Posted December 16, 2021 A team that shows ready to play to its standard and not down to level of competition. In other words a team that puts up 60 on the Stony Brooks of the world. A team that shows up versus inferior conference comp and blows these teams away. A team that plays game after game to the ability of its roster. A team that improves during the season and does not retrogress, 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Log Haulin No. 15 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Fix the injury issues. Been listening to a lot of Bulldog podcast in my log truck the past few days. Mainly to get a read on what Dawg fans think of Lanning, a lot of love for DL for sure. Scott Cochran's name keeps coming up. Dawg fans are big on Cochran. I guess he was sick and not in an on field role with GA. Would love to see DL poach Cochran. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

noDucknewby No. 18 Share Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) Absolutely more third down stops on defense, ESPECIALLY third and long. More dynamic offense, particularly variations in tempo. No more 4-minute offense all damn game. Keep foot on the gas when playing with a lead, win games going away instead of just hanging on and milking the clock. Oops I guess that's more than "one" ha ha. Edited December 17, 2021 by noDucknewby 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What made them so deviating is the lack of a consistently explosive offense. We had more false starts in the Kelly-Helfrich era and they rarely hurt the scoreboard... Let alone were game changing. The offense either needs to avoid all false starts to stay on schedule .. or have a scheme that allows for some big chunk yards to make the occasional false start irrelevant. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No standing over your opponent after a play like you're some kind of badass.

duckncover No. 23 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I remember when football was fun. I mean fun for the players, the coaches, the fans. It was even fun when the drunks behind me spilled their beer on me. I just want football to be fun again without all the angst and disappointment. Turn up the fun dial! The score will take care of itself and the players will love the game again. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel C No. 36 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Development of our QBs, giving them game time to get up to speed of the game. Consistency - when practicing AND during games. Plays with TWO running backs - spread the ball, share the love. Passes to our WRs and COMPLETIONS that are further than 2 yards downfield. A dominant and stout defense, and a FUN offense that combines power with speed. Go DUCKS! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
