How would you rate our play calling so far from our new offensive coordinator Jason Hogan?

6/10
8/10 early

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Navy seal could do multiple things I believe

Mostly O'Shea just liked that he would try to kill guys on the teams lol. He couldn't really do anything else at all.

Hard to tell with all the back ups.

The one thing we've seen is that they're trying to be quick. In the regular season, that could lend itself to a lot of cool things. Hurry up offence, Strev doing the sneak and then staying in to attempt a quick pass against mismatches. More Brady in the passing game.

But we'll see.

[Blue In BC]

We found a way to roster that ex Navy Seal for a whole year. We can probably find a way to keep Cooley or Ayers if we want to. Both are in that import crunch though.

We were starting more than 7 and he was used on short yardage when you can afford to remove a receiver.

[TecnoGenius]

McCrae was also the returner. Cooley is not.

Was he?  Don't remember.  But that means he wasn't great at it, which means Cooley might be able to return just as well as McCrae!

[Jesse]

Dunno.  But what I do know is no one is poaching Ayers off our PR.  Cooley is clearly getting noticed by even those not wearing blue goggles!  Ridersforum noticing him.  SSK booth guys noticing him.  I bet other forums are noticing him.  That type of potential can easily get snapped off a PR.

Remember how we had to protect both Lucky & Grant when they both were clearly instant sensations in '19?  You don't want to just give guys like that away.

I can't think of an example of an import RB being poached off a PR.

Always guys being overvalued in preseason. There's a reason RBs are called "dime a dozen".

Could be. If we can PR stash him that's the best case.

Nah you were biased about him, blocked well.  Helped us have a good year.

Don't play all year for nothing

Give him some credit

I think it's pretty darn good so far!  A bit simple, but not as simple as some PSs might be.  He's mixing it up well and getting D's to guess the wrong scheme.  Very optimistic.

Huge might
I bet not

[TecnoGenius]

That's a huge hit, but it'll count as a strike against him.  You gotta hang on to the ball if you want a job.  If this was a real game that could cost us the win.

Was Schoen only on the field for pne play?

Likely roughly

[TecnoGenius]

Was Schoen only on the field for pne play?

Hard to tell with these tight shots.  Him and Demski definitely barely seen though.  So maybe one snap or series each.

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Was that actually Sheahan? I think not.
