There is this one Green Bay Packers sequence from last week that continues to piss me off, and I want to talk about it a little more. Specifically, this sequence is at the end of the first quarter. Now, it’s unfair to judge individual plays in a vacuum, especially in this offense, where giving certain looks […]

Over the past decade, Clemson football’s offensive identity has shifted from surgical precision and explosiveness to inconsistency and mediocrity. PFF’s unit grades tell the story in clear, quantifiable terms: a steady erosion in the passing game, a gradual decline in protection, and a rushing attack that’s neither strong enough or utilized enough to support an […]
