If not then this offense will tank. Until proven otherwise, I have no confidence in our WR's, and feel our RB's will be average. There's a lot of potential for this offense but a lot of unproven guys will be counted on.

I'm actually more confident in the OL than I have been in years, so I think they'll be a bright spot.

Is it OK to say that I'm concerned about the offense?

I feel just the same, mango! Hopefully we see strong improvement!

5/27/17 11:00am

It feels like we haven't had a really good offense in 8 years.

SuperTank

5/27/17 11:02am

I don't disagree, however...

lbmango

It might feel that way, but 2013 had almost 1000 more yards than the 2009

I think the offensive line will be good. Everything starts up front, Right?

5/27/17 11:02am

I am cautiously optimistic - Wait and see at this point

Dr T-bone

5/27/17 11:18am

Sure, until you listed losing Hill as a huge loss.

5/27/17 11:19am

I hope you're right. I'll rely on your faith for now.

lbmango

5/27/17 11:31am

Really though, what would naturally take a step back?

5/27/17 2:55pm

A good and experienced OL can cover a multitude of sins. I'm rather optimistic

I feel the same way, there are some concerns.

JWill was a huge security blanket (and frankly Taysom's scrambling abilities)..

Machiavelli

This is primarily what I meant when I said we'll miss Taysom

lbmango

This is understated, I think.

Byu_1988

Mangum showed that ability very well as a freshman.

5/27/17 2:42pm

This is a good point..Mangum is actually pretty good at scrambling too

The latter of which is overrated.

I have a feeling tanner is going to be a punching bag this year.

I think the offense will be great in game 1

TheDeek

I hope the offense against PSU is very vanilla

lbmango

5/27/17 1:59pm

Vanilla, but firing on all cylinders

You could write a book about this exact thing since 2009.

5/28/17 3:28am

Many people don't realize that only part of Detmer's offense was implemented

RebelScum

5/27/17 1:46pm

Can someone explain to me why Detmer's offense would only be partially implement

Machiavelli

5/27/17 1:50pm

There are a couple of dynamics to this. The first is implementing a new offense.

RebelScum

5/27/17 2:04pm

My primary concern with this theory is that there was no progression

StalwartBraveTrue

5/31/17 1:53am

It was all about the QB and % success....

Great point. Here's hoping Tanner can be up to speed enough to make it work

Bull! With that, I hope Detmer matures into his roll.

There will come a time when Detmer, or someone else associated with the offense,

RebelScum

5/28/17 9:36am

I am too. Tanner needs to show he is an under center, pocket QB and can pick teams apart with reads.

5/27/17 1:57pm

I'm optimistic (like others) that Tanner will be fine. But I agree that he

Your concern is natural -- but I wouldn't worry too much

I'm not real confident to tell you the truth - a lot of question marks

Legit concerns

No. Southernfried will tell you how stupid you are.

Way to contribute some actual sports talk, like usual.

5/27/17 4:08pm

I hope our offense isn't turning into Utah's. Sitake has brought an awesome

doups3

We had yards and points...but I'll trade it for wins

hammergm

5/27/17 4:37pm

Yes. We should be.

5/27/17 5:19pm

Why do you have a hard time seeing it happen?

Seasider

5/27/17 7:05pm

I don't think there's anything wrong with being concerned while holding out hope that it will work out.

There should be concern, but in today's football you don't get 4-5 seasons

You're underestimating the value of getting 1st team reps in practice

Detmer's O put BYU in a position to win every game but players dropped the ball

Two key factors that should help the offense, 1) BYU has 4
