I'd like to see tempo out of the gate. Screens, QB draws/options, quick slants/crossing routes that don't require lots of time in the pocket....try to get defense on their heels with tempo.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN POPEYES IS OUT Of CHICKEN SANDWICHES!?!?!"

Did the announcer really scream that or am I experiencing hallucinations at nearly 3am?


He implying the dude gets violent over chicken sandwiches.

As a compliment.

Has anyone actually had the Popeye's chicken sandwich? Is this something I should plan on camping out for when it returns?

Agree on the tempo but no more screens. They take like 5 seconds to develop with this offense and never get anywhere.

90 yards of offense in the first half. We will be better in the second half.
Based on what, exactly?

Wilcox cannot just get a pass for this offense. This is worse than the Dykes years
I am completely perplexed why some on here give him a pass for the offense, but hated Dykes because of Buh.

Because Wilcox never went 1-11.
That's because Wilcox didn't inherit the steaming pile that Dykes did. And also basically lose the entire starting defense to injuries... but that point is, for TWO+ years now our offense has been every bit as bad as Buh's defense.

Now who's making excuses.

It's called perspective. But again, the point is for TWO+ years now our offense has been every bit as bad as Buh's defense.

Sure. But the overall W-L record is better, and that's the bottom line for any head coach. It's not a big mystery why Dykes got more hate. He didn't win as much.

LoL. Not even close enough to be taken seriously.

Buh fielded some of the worst units in the history of the sport. And that is not hyperbole.

I have the cheezeit bowl on line 3 for you...

No,not even close. The offense has been terrible, but not historically inept.

I get the hate. It's the free pass for having basically the same awful offense that we once had as a defense. That's all.

We recruit top guys, but we can't sign them. It's tough to recruit to Berkeley, for a variety of reasons.

I'm a big fan of temp used strategically no matter what the personnel deficiencies or strengths are, but especially so for limited offenses like Cal.

Everyone saw how bad Baldwin was last year. It's no secret. Wilcox hitched his wagon to Baldwin when every Bear fan wanted him fired. Wilcox deserves half of every complaint made about Baldwin.

Our defense under dykes could not do fundamental things.....like tackles. Offense right now is a line problem

Disagree. Dykes quick strike offense was a major disadvantage for the defense. However Wilcox's awesome defense is a major boon for the offense. When you factor that in, I believe the offense under Wilcox is worse than the defense under Dykes.

Has Garbers completed a pass past the line of scrimmage?

I don't think he's getting a free pass. People complain about the offense constantly on here.

But he's not getting those half complaints.

"every Bear fan" wanting something is not a credible argument for the legitimacy of said action.

Game thread isn't a great place to debate Dykes vs Wilcox. But I find the arguments for Wilcox getting a pass to be very simplistic. There was a lot more to Dykes sucking than his choice of Buh. There's a lot more that Wilcox has going for him than just the defense. People need to give a little more credit that holistically there's much more to look at.

That's not why. Nor is it a logical one.

If a person held Dykes responsible for the defense and hiring Buh, the same applies to Wilcox and Baldwin.

It's entirely logical. Dykes' record was worse than Wilcox's to this point. That's why he was more disliked.

If Wilcox posts more losing seasons the same will happen to him.
Stop it. If Wilcox accomplishes what Dykes did in his year 3 (8 wins and #1 QB) Wilcox will get a 22 year contract extension and about 13 years of equity with fans smh.

Nobody was thinking about year 1 when Cal was top 25 and 5-0 in 2015

He would probably get an extension and more goodwill. That would dry up if the winning stopped, same as for Tedford.
