Streeter hates the middle of the field... or DJ doesn't look...

I’d like to see that chart for the season up to this point, it’s crazy how we don’t use the middle!

Or it could be that Streeter is trying to further build the

confidence of his QB by not putting the ball where there is a higher percentage of an interception. Or it could be that the receivers running routes down the middle aren’t open. The chart only tells one part of the story, not the whole story.

It tells the whole story; we don’t pass to the middle of the field.
The reason is irrelevant.

Exactly. 9x against Furman and 6x against GT.

I don't understand the weird fascination with throwing over the middle, especially when it was only one game, a dominant win over La Tech where we didn't.

Some just want to find a problem for every solution. DJ looks much improved, Clemson is winning games, but some are more worried about where the ball is being thrown. A TD in the corner of the Endzone is just as good in the middle of the Endzone to me.

The concern is that we won't be able to throw the ball over

the middle of the field against tougher defenses, because we haven't practiced it and/or aren't able.
We obviously haven't needed to do it against the three opponents thus far, but we probably will at some point if we want to beat the better teams on our schedule.

Its not irrelevant if you want to fix the problem. They were not open. Other teams actually cover over the middle.

over the middle of the field, or WRs who can get open in the middle of the field?
You would think 4-5 star talent could do that with at least some regularity, especially against the likes of Furman and Louisiana Tech.
If you are correct, it's a coaching issue. And if you aren't correct, and our players can execute it but our coaches are philosophically against throwing over the middle, it's still a coaching issue.

DJ usually hasn't got time to stand in the pocket due to lack of protection. He's right handed, and he feels more comfortable throwing across while rolling to his right than rolling left and having to adjust as he tries to adjust to an awkward throwing motion.

Charts against our D. That would tell even more of the story.
How did we get to the point where our O cannot pass and complete passes down field or in the middle of the field any more? Recruiting? Development? Coaching? Play calling?

Who cares, we are 3-0. Last year it was Tony Elliott, this year it is Streeter. Find another team to trash.

Yes, it was Elliott last year.

Our offense was pretty bad, despite being loaded with talent.
That's a problem, and it seems to be continuing under Streeter.

Yeah, that says we threw there 15x in the first two games.

That's certainly reasonable.
So what's the infatuation all about anyway? Would we be undefeated if we threw over the middle against La Tech?

maybe dj has more confidence in the receiver(s) on the right maybe we liked the matchup vs the corner/safety/LB on the right maybe the receivers on the right are the ones who get open maybe the read is simplified and goes from right to left and he never really gets past that side

Plus La Tech played a lot of Tampa 2 coverage that reduces the availability down the middle of the field.

Well, maybe not our QBs coach, but most.
