Hearing his remarks from this press conference should convince us all to give him a legitimate chance to get this thing going. He knows what he is doing.

When it comes to Warren; Warren is the slot receiver that stirs the drink in our passing game. One thing that I noticed is that oftentimes, when the play broke down, Fowler often looked to Warren as a safety valve. This year, I expect Warren to be that go-to possession receiver. I hope we begin looking at Christian and Dobson as those safety valves along with Warren. That SHOULD help our passing game compile more than 100 yards passing. A safety valves are only good if you use them . Fowler aka Chico understood his offensive system. I don't think that the ones that have played understand that because they would rather look off a safety valve receiver and hold the ball and get sacked or run for their lives . One of the first things a quarterback learns when you are going over passing plays and routes in skull/quarterback meetings, is that each play route has a safety valve Outlet regardless if you're rolling to the right or to the left or just in the pocket. We will see ๐ what this weekend brings.

I really don't think people are upset about losing ,what they are upset about is the way the team is losing. 60 yd passing in two games one against UAB BCS the other against North Carolina Central FCS and you only get 60 yards in passing from a program that had a running & passing reputation. That is what people are upset about it's the way you lose. You're a FCS program and you can only generate 60 yards in two games, hell I can put a high school team out there and they could at least get a hundred yards in one game. They are willing to give Brown a chance to get this together but they will remain critical when we continue to have performances like this from our quarterback position.
I had a glimpse of Hope in the UAB game in the second half . When our quarterbacks ran the ball when they couldn't pass. So I said okay we do know our quarterbacks can run and the passing will come. This weekend they stood around and when they did run they anticipated getting hit instead of just running like the central quarterback was doing. That is why people are upset about. Most of the time the defense is always ahead of the offense at the start of the season but this offense is ridiculous with the exception of the running backs but you can't win by just running the ball. Things have to get better.

I really don't think people are upset about losing ,what they are upset about is the way the team is losing... I totally agree with this statement. For example, I'm beginning to wonder if our receivers are not getting open due to their poor route-running or is it a case where the coordinated design of the pass-plays are not making it easy for our receivers to get open. Another example is, are we making no halftime adjustments or is it a case where our halftime adjustments simply don't work. And whereas I was very happy when we only had two penalties in our first game it was disheartening to see so many penalties in our the 2nd game. Like the beat in a song, this list of concerns goes on but I think the point is made so one can see why it's the way we are losing that's so disturbing to the fans. I like Coach Brown and I want him to succeed and, on a personal note, I was glad to see him not doing a lot of smiling in today's post-game press conference. It reminded me of Coach Broadway who almost never smiled in his press conferences. Maybe Coach Brown, his staff and players are beginning to realize the seriousness of this season. At least, I hope so. Pardon my lengthen comments but it has been hard to watch this year's team...

Coach actually said another thing I've seen happening often:
- DE's diving in and letting the QB's get outside (both games).

welp, he talks a good talk. but then again, so did fobbs. i think he knew that by acknowledging the terrorists' attack on 9/11 and opening with a "moment of silence", pretty much would be "disarming" to those at the press conference. his body language told me that he could sense how upset our alums are...
