Because they are… I don’t think we quite realize how bad this team is and that’s a sad, scary thought

Yes we are right here battling UNC and BC for the worst team in the ACC . Scary part is both will be more physical than us on the LoS and we may even lose to one or both of them . It is very possible that Furman is our only win left .

It's hard to comprehend how far we have fallen, and just how significantly
Sep 27, 2025, 1:31 PM
|

we are failing. If we were just a little off, only needing a tweak here or there, that's understandable. It's the magnitude of our underperformance that is so staggering, and points to a deeper, more fundamental problem.

Crazy thing is, i’m not convinced Dabo comprehends that.
I really do think he thinks it’s just a matter of “putting together a complete game” or some nonsense

Can’t have a good team without a good QB.
It literally ALL starts there.

QB play will set the ceiling for your team

But LOS play will set the floor. We are definitely lacking on the latter.

And Cade is getting a typical pocket in which QBs are expected to perform. He has been absolutely horrendous in the pocket. Looks like a first year player.
The running game is doing well, and Cade has numerous open alternatives on nearly every pass play.
This is not on the OL.
The defense played so so and definitely well enough to win the first 3 games. We went 1-2 because of the QB. In game 4, you’re right. The DL was getting pushed around certainly in the first half and pretty much didn’t look like they wanted to be there. To your point, the DL is not getting it done. The talent is there - something is amiss with Eason and Rumph. Players are not responding to coaching and it’s a major concern.
But even when they were getting pushed around vs Syracuse, Cade missed a ton of opportunities early and late that could have flipped the game. You could literally see it dragging the entire team down.

Riley, Dabo, and the team psychologist are all coaching Cade.

It’s the same coaches and psychologist we had last year when Cade was top 15 in QBR and finished the season as a Heisman front runner.
Nothing has changed, except the QB has lost his head. If the team psychologist can’t help him, what else do you suggest?
My thinking is Cade gets one or two series at UNC. If after two weeks he hasn’t gotten out of his mental funk, then it’s time to sit.

The teams I see playing well today are teams with the QB playing well.

It literally helps the entire team, both sides of the ball.
There is no more important position on the field and it’s not even close. Each and every team looking good today show a QB getting the job done.

Sometimes you see what you think and want to see. !!
Suppose Dabo leaves Clemson. How many games will fans give the new HC to prove himself?? 5,6 ?? One season or a season and a half ??

It all starts with QB play

Almost every game I watch, I’m saying to myself “we would be dangerous with that QB”. What’s sad is next week we’ll go beat up on unc and CDS will say, “see, I told you so about CK”. Complete & utter false validation. The we’ll probably go to Boston and get beat.
