When people say we've been spoiled

they're usually talking about the fans, but I think our coaches have been spoiled, too. We've had some seriously "generational" and outstanding talent on both sides of the ball in the last several years. We still have that on defense, but we're currently lacking that high level of talent and experience on the offensive side.
I'd think it's been relatively easy to coach DW and TL, and maybe even KB, especially with the WRs and RBs we've had around them. Now, for the first time since 2015 (?) - in the pre-DW days - we don't have that. DJ is a great QB, and I think will only get better, but he's not at the level of DW and TL. Not that he can't be, but for whatever reasons he isn't. Seems like our coaches don't quite know what to do with that after having the maturity, leadership and talent of DW and TL.
Time for our staff to make their $$$ the hard way - and EARRRRRRN it. I think we're getting better week to week, and this week will be a big challenge, that hopefully our guys will rise up to, take super seriously, and overcome.

It's strange when TNet posters get upset when the coaches get criticized. It's not like Dabo and TE are doing this job for free. Clemson has made Dabo and TE very very rich men.
I have no problem saying that both Dabo and TE have not earned their paychecks this season. And yes, the offense is largely Dabo's fault for his complacency when it comes to schemes and coaches he has hired on that side of the ball.

I know, it’s like they take it personally and lose any semblance of objectivity.***

Most of us are not spoiled…

And many of us thought we may eventually have a down year (losing 2-3 games), but nobody, none of us expected to have this pathetic offense. Expecting our offense to be average at worst is not being spoiled, and this is where the outrage is coming from.

So you think it seems that our coaching staff doesn't quite know what to do DJ; Well for starters bench him for a series if you have to, or coach him better on how to go through his progressions, to stop throwing flat footed, drop back more ,roll out, take something off his throws, anything but continuing this parade of excuse after excuse after excuse about how "we are who we are right now", or "We need to score more points" and my newest favorite we are being burdened by "outside noise". Oh, and one last thing, you think we are getting better week by week; SERIOUSLY!

What blows my mind is the level of acceptance and excuses for the offensive production thus far this season.
And how some fans are so biased they can’t see the issues and resort to name calling like a little kid when a fans come to vent on a message board.
