Gattis, Steele, Guidry, Dawson

I have blamed Guidry and the defensive players for most of the problems this Canes team has had this season, but today I think both coordinators were out coached (again) by GT and the players on defense and offense were just too lackadaisical and share blame for this loss.

Dawson called plays they were just not executed I hate using that word but it’s easy to see. 4th and 1 PA #4 was open and it’s an easy conversion but he turns his head late ******* up the play. **** happens I’m more concerned with the defense coming out the exact same every game no adjustments

seems we all forget that guidry was LOVED last year. Pretty sure he got a raise/extension. But no doubt he's been awful this year. pretty baffling to be honest.

why is #4 in when #6 has proven to be way better catching the ball? or why not just run it with #6? Thats on dawson. Same with the countless go route deep balls (have NOT converted a single one ALL YEAR) and stupid WR tunnel screens (we do NOT have shifty WR's). Dawson has been above average (hard not to be with Cam as QB) but he was bad this game.

Run game was working all game with Martinez and on 2 out of the 4 4th downs where we could run we don’t give him the ball. That was crazy

This Canes team will never win an ACC game by scoring 23 points. I am not sure if that 4th and 1 was Dawson or Cam audible, but I don’t think GT would have stopped Martinez in that short yardage situation. I agree the execution on that play was horrible, but maybe if #4 was #8 or #9, it would be a better play call.

Sometimes the best player is off. Cam missed open receivers (Arroyo and Brown I recall) for at least TDs and Sam Brown dropped a crucial 3rd down. Cam refused to take short check downs and Martinez should have gotten more opportunities.

I still feel good about 9-1. It’s a more accurate reflection of who we are

Isn’t this why coaches have multiple titles? Maybe you hire someone on D and take a couple of titles off Guidry.

I thought it was all about the Jimmy's & Joe's?

Isn't that what yall always would say to me when we would have the debates about Coaches & Schemes?

Interesting how that works.

But in any event, it's a little funny to see the darling of the fanbase last year now taking the most heat. I distinctly remember last year & all offseason people were singing the praises of Guidry & saying Dawson needed to be fired. And now things have flipped 180⁰.

Maybe they're both good Coordinators that are working with what they have?

I mean, wasn't our Defense supposed to be better without Kam Kinchens?

Literally I don't like the lack of outside runs but the run game is fine. As for guidry it is what it is we don't have a stout dline mesidor is undersized bain is too big to play end. Our secondary is the worst I've seen in my life as a um alumni and fan. But I'm not gonna mop about anything because this is the best we have looked as a football team in a while. We will be okay at the end of the day. This is disappointing but we still have several games and control our destiny.

I’m not seeing any Jimmy or joes out there on defense. More James and Joesphs out there.

Time to throw JT and Chevis in that bucket too.

Absolute regression at the DL across the board despite more depth and talent.

Chevis you might be able to make a case for because OJ but the DBs are pathetic all around and he’s Guidry’s guy.

I’m sure they all return. But shouldn’t.
