Is Dirk Koetter getting a free pass....


Just curious to what ya'll think of our offensive coordinator. I see where the Jags fans blame the offensive woes on Garrard, the O line, the receivers and such. There are good arguments to support these views, but I have to say I am one who has been critical of Koetter's playcalling and I think he needs to step it up this year and be both more innovative and consistent. He has shown some great play calling, I think it was early in the yearagainst Houston where he had Mike Thomas coming in motion through the backfield on a lot of plays, causing problems and also Garrards naked bootleg that set the tone early. It's frustrating but it seems like on every 2nd and one or two yards for a first, we always run right up the middle, usually creating 3 and short. Play action on second and short is where the good teams exploit the opposing defense. This just one example but I think Koetter needs to spread it around and not always be so predictable. I think Lewis, MSW, MJD, Miller, Thomas, Dillard, and the rest of the backs and receivers give you enough weapons if Garrard can get good protection and Koetter can improve his play calling
