Agree^^^While the qb spot has its own troubles, they pale in comparison to those of our OL. Tough to play qb when 2 OL have failing grades most of the time. Add in the inconsistent hiking issue and any qb would struggle.

Wow the Farniok apologists will have field day with this:Hard to get much done when your OL ranks in the bottom 3rd of the country.
Ranking all 127 FBS offensive lines through CFB Week 13
Need to clean house on offensive position coachesWow the Farniok apologists will have field day with this:
Left tackle Brenden Jaimes was the only Cornhusker offensive lineman with any high hopes of good play this season and that’s exactly been the case so far. Jaimes hasn’t been nearly as good as what he was last year in pass protection when he earned an 88.1 grade in that facet, but he has still been good relative to his counterparts. The left tackle has recorded a 75.4 pass-block grade this year and allowed the fifth-lowest pressure rate among Big Ten tackles at 1.9%. As for everyone else on Nebraska’s offensive line, they have allowed over twice the pressure rate of Jaimes and are all under a 60.0 pass-block grade for the year.

Maybe so. But when the program's Offensive Lineman of the Year still takes plays off in Year 4 and looks like he would need directions to the weight room, the problem might run higher than his position coach.Need to clean house on offensive position coaches
WR's are even worse. Just compare how they run routes vs any other decent team. It looks like they're jogging and they hardly ever get open on downfield routes.While the qb spot has its own troubles, they pale in comparison to those of our OL.

If we could just get Omar "The Unicorn" Manning on the field ...WR's are even worse. Just compare how they run routes vs any other decent team. It looks like they're jogging and they hardly ever get open on downfield routes.
I agree. Too much pointing of fingers and not the thumb from up top.Maybe so. But when the program's Offensive Lineman of the Year still takes plays off in Year 4 and looks like he would need directions to the weight room, the problem might run higher than his position coach.
Frost's NU coached teams in order from best to worst-2018, 2019, 2020. O lines-2018, 2019, 2020.Seems to be a lot of "revisionist history" on this board. There have been posts after posts about the "improved" O line play and how OSU was proof of that. I have been saying baloney for the last three years but willing to give them year one.
The excuses are running out as the line has more Frost era recruits and fewer hold overs. I find it interesting that probably the best O line we have had for the last three years was in Frost's first year.
Quit reading the headlines and uninformed posts and watch the game film over and over. It does not lie.

Yeah Betts should definitely be on the field more and might be our best receiver already. I even think he's our best blocking receiver. Our walk-ons aren't even good at that imo and neither is Wandale. Brown has better speed than a lot of those guys but has had a couple bad drops already. Fleming was probably the best route runner, but he's gone already. I don't think the staff was planning for these guys to play much because they thought Omar would be the starter. Just one more thing this staff wasn't prepared for in getting our young receivers ready to play.True, that’s why Betts, Brown and others should play instead of our 5.8 forty guys.
I also catch Wandale jogging around a lot, so I think it's more of an effort problem than necessarily an athleticism problem. The younger guys at least seem to give some good effort on running routes and trying to get open.True, that’s why Betts, Brown and others should play instead of our 5.8 forty guys.
