On that last series, there were three WRs within 10 yards on the side lines....i get that he's not comfortable rolling to his left, but why roll to the right on the short side of the field and stack everyone in the same space? Crappy play design.

All you guys seem to be blaming a Lewis. I see bad, bad coaching. You can’t teach speed, but you can teach slow. He’s been coached slow.

Looking forward to the coach-speak. We're right there, lots of positives to build on, just gotta get better.
Miller needs to retire
Looked like Rodman got held pretty bad. Can't rewind because I'm watching on my computer hooked to my TV on pac 12 ****ing network. Mickey Mouse program in a Mickey Mouse conference. Frustrating being a Buff fan.

Dorrell needs to clean house on the offensive staff this offseason - or he's going to be back coaching receivers in the NFL before long.
Our receivers are running slow and rounded routes. Easy to defend. We are ****ed unless lots of things change very quickly.
And that is how it is done. Their o line is handling our D line pretty well
Hard to tell if this is truly a Chev/playcalling issue or if it’s QB issue. So far Lewis is the worst passing QB we’ve had in some time.
He's also not close to ready.
I'm so glad that we chased away a veteran QB who had actually won games in a CU uniform in the past.
The OL is the core of the problem, nobody can win if you can't block but Lewis looks like he is figuring out what he is seeing about the time he is returning to the huddle.

Ball game. No way we're getting 6 this game.

So adjust. Get Lewis out of the pocket. Read option. Bootleg. Hell, line up in the I-formation and run the ball every down, run the clock.
He makes Bernard Jackson look like he was running the air raid
You have a good point. Chev has no clue how to create a player-friendly scheme and most definitely has no clue how to coach up a QB.
But, but, but Chev was a receiver! How?
Thankfully keeping Chev has kept our recruiting strong
I do not know how you keep Chiv. I just do not
Yep, it’s a mix of both but the QB has to pull the trigger at some point
It's both.

Kind of agree. He had, I think, well over 3000 yards rushing in HS, seems to look for the run to soon.
Can't see the routes from my couch unfortunately (when are we going to get All22 cam now that everyone has 50 inch HD tvs?) but I'm not surprised. Route running was one of the main things that kept Viska (along with injuries) out of the first round. Our OC is a WR coach, or HC has been a WR coach in the NFL since Clinton was president (that may be embellished) and we're having route running issues and offense issues. If you have a head coach with an offensive background and your team has bad offenses, you're gonna have a bad time.
