I hope I am wrong, but I don't see any answers on offense

I've been following Clemson football since the early 1970s and I have never seen any offense this bad. Without DW, it is almost impossible for us to execute the forward pass. The O-line consistently gets beat in pass blocking and you seldom see a push from them on run plays. We don't seem to have any big play option and are too inconsistent to drive the ball.
Our playbook seems to have been simplified to bubble screens, jet sweeps, off tackle runs and the rare incomplete pass down field. On the way back from Atlanta yesterday we discussed what we can do with this offense, and I'm not seeing solutions.
Maybe five weeks ago, if we would have tried to install some I formation plays, that would have worked. Our one attempt at the wildcat cost us Choice. Maybe run Gallman 30 times and see what happens.
I don't know. But I do know we are going to lose number 6 in two weeks without some sort of offense.

Agreed. But my best guess is we play our guts out in 2 weeks

and give the coots a battle. For a while. Until eventually the ### breaks and they beat us in heartbreaking fashion.
Either that or they blow us out from the first whistle.

beat the coots, even when they are having a bad season, if we can't score a touchdown with our offense. Right now, I don't know that we can.

What ???? Do you really feel coach Morris could install this in the next 8 practices ... Hayllll no ... That's not even getting into the oline talent and Caldwell teaching the protection . They are not capable no way no how .

I agree with you on all counts. I don't see any answers.

Maybe try stuff, that would normally seem crazy, this week against Ga. State. And if we score 6 points against S.Carolina it will obviously equal 6 straight. I don't think 16 will be enough, if we can somehow get there.
