LOL!
I post on these boards for my own entertainment, as much as anything. The posts are mostly a means of venting ideas/thoughts marinating in my head ... and translating them to text. My writing style on these boards is essentially (and mostly) stream-of-consciousness. Were I to edit my thoughts and organize them better ... then yeah, I could definitely make things more succinct. However, that would also take more time/effort. I type pretty fast ... so my long, rambling posts don't take up all that much of my time. (that's why my longer posts are inherently rife with more typos, grammatical errors, etc)
Long story long ... I could be more concise ... but I won't be.
a lot of the routes are based on timing.
to make real simple for the mentally impaired
when the target leaves the line of scrimmage a internal clock starts and the QB goes off that clock and at the time hits zero the QB throws to a certain spot on the field. now anything can disrupt the timing.
the target can get held at the line of scrimmage or get kncked off his pattern or a OL
misses a block. then the whole play is blown up

I think that your post clearly illustrates how people process data based upon their own confirmation bias. You read the post that you quoted ... and you see it as piling on Petras.
I read the very same post ... and I see it placing responsibility at the feet of EVERY position group and every coach! The point being that Petras owns responsibility for his failures too ... just like everyone else. I bet that if you speak with him ... he'll own them too. He strikes me as a conscientious young man that way.
there was a video where it showed the ball going to spot on the field where nobody was the sad part is that posters ignored the fact that the FB was the target and on his way to the spot he was held twice. once at the LOS and then 3 yards later neither Brian nor Petras could have forseen this and planned for this happening.
he stated that Petras had accuarcey issues to start his post. that was why I responded next time why not start it with the position group like the OL or receivers and leave Petras out of it.
You’re seriously going to say Petras didn’t have problems with accuracy? Cuz yeah receivers had issues with drops, routes etc,….sometimes the pass wasnt on-target either!
it’s getting weird how you seem to be trying to absolve Petras of fault.
Per usual that is a well thought out, well worded, piece, de resistance…
With that said, at this point in time, why are we still having this lengthy debate about offense, Defense & special teams?
And honestly, this isn’t necessarily directed at you homer I quoted your post because I wanted to go back and drill down on it further… Not to comment just to see what you said. I didn’t read it all.
But listen, everybody wants to segment this team, but the guy that constructed the special teams, the Defense and the offense are all the same person!
Yes, we are offensively challenged. We have never had a high octane offense. We are never going to have a high octane offense, and the people responsible for the product on the field. The last couple years really blew it. They absolutely blew, it whether it was personnel, recruiting the personnel, retaining the personnel, using the portal, coaching, injuries, effort by the players (still on the coach), getting the game plan to the field, etc. etc. etc..
But seriously, they have put an insane product on the field, defensively & special teams wise, and they made some major improvements in their portal effort, and ultimately there offensive personnel…
This coach, KF, has proven overtime. He will adapt and change. I don’t know why we are beating the living shit out of this donkey still?!

LaPorta stud that he is, still had plenty of drops! I liked Spencer but he is the 2nd poorest Qb, KF has employed in my opinion. He could have been better without a severely leaky OL but he missed plenty of throws and….
I do agree his WRs bailed on him!
I also think KJ and AB left for teams inferior to what ours will be this year, but it is what it is!
Prior to LaPorta's SR campaign, one of the biggest knocks that NFL scouts had with him were all the drops. I think I remember reading that one of them (one of the scouts) was quoted as saying that he led the B1G in drops ... or something like that. Anyhow, he showed great improvement in that area, in '22. I think that reduced some of the apprehension that some of the scouts were having ... as evidenced by where he landed in the draft.
It usually starts like this
Poster "Everyone is to blame for this offense, even Petras played a miniscule part but others were far more to blame"
KarHerbigan "yep again it is all Petras's fault. never nobody else had anything to do with it." followed with either
"to make real simple for the mentally impaired" - Ironic I know
or calling people names
Then posters like myself pointing out the inaccuracies of the post. Lather, rinse, repeat.
I don't think that anybody believes that Petras played a minuscule role ... nobody sane, anyhow. However, along the same tack ... given how bad our O was ... and given what we saw from Alex and Joey ... I don't think folks give Petras enough credit for doing the job he did (when he was served such a big shit-sandwich). Petras still did a good job of getting us into the right plays. It wasn't always his fault that protection would break down or that our RB would go down for a loss because of a missed block.
its amazing how IA went 6-2 and finished in the top 25
then the next season they went 10-2 won the BT West Championship winning 12 games in a row all with this lousy QB finishing 10-4
last season IA went 8-5 with a bowl win again winning with Petras at QB just stop already with this bull shit about Phil and Woods did it all.

all the do is cherry pick what they want to bitch about,
as for that 21 season they were pissed because IA did not win the BT Championship so again Petras and Brian are the ones that are labeled as failures
the same thing wirh the 2015 team 12-0 won the BT West division then they finish 12-2 recording the 2nd highest offensive total under KF. yet started the BS GDGD and wanted him gone all because IA didn't win the BT Championship and go to the CFB Playoffs,
now 10 wins are not good enough now its BT Championships and going to the CFP every year.
they are putting the Nebraska fans to shame with their delusion.
