Rock m Nation grades for FB team

Have to agree with their analysis and grades. With a even average offense should have had couple more wins. But playcalling was simply awful and soooo predictable. OC never learned a FB 101 rule, if they load up to stop run don't run but pass into loads of open space run RPO and pass out of it. But OC being a moron never adjusted and it cost MU whose very stout D kept them in every game. Plus ST consistantly poor performance hurt them dramatically in close games.

So a smart self described CEO would take a look at his team and cut the Managers of underperforming divisions like his OC and ST coach both of whom have been consistantly awful in their tenure here. Absolutely a no brainer. Or does a too comfortable CEO who has way too much job and income security value hanging with his crew more than success on the field or the fans of the Program.

I'd go

3.5 D
2.5 O
2.0 ST

2.7 Team

Probably not 100% fair to rank ST's with that weight but the FG/EXP thing was just a mess in every way and then the punting even went bad.

Same with the fairness issue with the offense Moore was a big part of the 2.5 for me.

I guess we all look at it different ways.

Of course some of the blown coverages and such stand out but in the end the defense was more than good enough to beat Alabama, Vanderbilt and OU.

Any semblance of a passing game at all and MU probably wins all three of those games.

I give the defense an A.

I think they need to be more granular as there were parts of offense and defense that were great and parts that were suspect:

Offense - Rushing A+
Offense - Passing D
Defense - Rushing A
Defense - Passing C-
Special Teams - D
Offense Coaching - D
Defensive Coaching - A-
Head Coaching - C

hdhntr148, getting rid of folks is easy. The real task is who to get instead.
