TNET: The Renfrow Effect?: What has happened to middle of field for offense?

The Renfrow Effect?: What has happened to middle of field for offense?

The Clemson offense has been good this season, ranking 21st nationally in total offense. One complaint seen on social media has been the lack – or the perceived lack – of using the middle of the field. Too many screen passes, not enough deep shots for a team that has a smorgasbord of deep threats and one of the best quarterbacks in college football. Full Story »

I was asking this question, but only watching on TV

So based on Coach’s comments I may not have seen the big picture. I was just thinking if they are taking away Tee and Justyn downfield, and blitzing linebackers all day, they must be leaving the middle open. I think sometimes the limited view on TV gives us wrong information. Glad Dabo talked about it though.

Regarding the screens...


Oct 1, 2019, 3:07 PM

Yeah, I know that the wide receiver screens are intended to be an extension of the running game. Problem is the defense is playing up close on the running game AND on the screens. The result is the same-- both the run and the screens are getting stuffed. According to David's statistics, we are wasting 20% of our offensive plays on screens that gain at best one yard. This will not change until we convert one of the screens into a hitch-and-go and burn the defense for an easy TD... just like OJ Howard did to us in two NCGs. Then, the defense will have to back off a step, and maybe the screen will be a viable play. Until then, it will continue to be a wasted down. JMO. And here's a fresh idea: how about a wheel route on one of the RPOs? I don't think we've run a wheel since CJ was here.
