The only axe I'm grinding is an axe that dozens of players swung first

and their axe-swinging and Nick's inability to connect with them is the reason he got demoted this year.

Defensive backs never going to change!

Howell has been the secondary coach since 2011

BYUMizzou

The difference in 2011 and especially 2012 was elite pass rushers.

Turnpike Lane

3/31/15 7:43am

Not true at all

Freddie Cougar

3/31/15 9:01am

Actually, a great pass rush covers a multitude of errors.

Turnpike Lane

3/31/15 9:17am

You missed the point

Freddie Cougar

3/31/15 9:18am

No, you missed the point. There are always errors.

Turnpike Lane

3/31/15 9:28am

Of course there are always errors, but there were much fewer in

Freddie Cougar

3/31/15 9:40am

His point is there are less errors because

shakarocks

3/31/15 10:20am

Both of you guys have correct points. And both are missing points.

They have had those bad habits for years

shakarocks

3/31/15 1:58pm

Did I say they'e only existed since Howell got here?

southernfriedcougar

3/31/15 2:02pm

shakarocks

3/31/15 2:11pm

Well it's not like he's been this big solution either. And it's not like

southernfriedcougar

3/31/15 2:14pm

I think that's ideal in most cases

shakarocks

3/31/15 2:28pm

The jury is still out?

southernfriedcougar

3/31/15 2:31pm

The DC jury

shakarocks

3/31/15 2:43pm

You’re mixing up two separate issues: 1) lack of talent and 2) mental errors.

ZooBlue

3/31/15 2:51pm

Not really

shakarocks

3/31/15 5:21pm

Well, I agree with your sig line....

ZooBlue

3/31/15 6:37pm

Well that's something

shakarocks

3/31/15 6:55pm

Well that's something!

shakarocks

3/31/15 6:57pm

I can agree with your thoughts above; I'm just sugesting that physical talent

Because the the defensive front 7 struggled.

HuskerCoug

3/31/15 7:47am

That's not why. It contributed, but the overarching and recurring problem

oxcoug

3/31/15 7:51am

It is partially why. How many secondaries excel when the QB can sit in the pocke

HuskerCoug

3/31/15 7:54am

The entire defense sucked last year, no doubt.

Left Shark Coug

3/31/15 7:58am

Grinding that axe ignoring the facts. For example you consistently wrote that

Thrill

oxcoug

3/31/15 11:52am

You completely ignored his point. Completely.

BarraCouga

3/31/15 7:57am

Since the mid-point of 2010, actually.

Left Shark Coug

3/31/15 7:50am

Bronco was directly involved with oversight of the DBs until last year

oxcoug

3/31/15 7:52am

I think it's been proven that where ever Bronco puts his attention, that

BYUMizzou

3/31/15 7:58am

Not sure that is correct. I know Bronco coached the NT's for at least one

Left Shark Coug

3/31/15 8:03am

So you're not sure? What a tub fart of a post.

srey

3/31/15 8:12am

CB is full of village idiots, that's for sure.

Left Shark Coug

3/31/15 8:18am

I think you are correct and in 2014 it was the oline

jonnnylingo

3/31/15 9:35am

That's not true.

Freddie Cougar

3/31/15 9:02am

Bring on a five or six year old defense coverage scheme....

traveller 1860

3/31/15 8:27am

Doubt that

ZooBlue

3/31/15 8:21am

The biggest reason Howell is still here is because of his friendship with Bronco

Real Men Wear Blue

3/31/15 8:27am

The players didn't buy into Howell's approach

donnerstag

3/31/15 8:33am

Newsflash: We didn't have all the talent in the world

shakarocks

3/31/15 8:48am

No, I checked. We had all of it

yfootball

3/31/15 9:31am

posts like this just make me chuckle

Ft Worth Cougar

3/31/15 9:15am

I think his point is that Howell had the resume of a pee wee coach before being

Elaine, get rid of the exclamation points.

Ghost

3/31/15 11:31am

It could change with a more talented pass rush

Reasonable1

3/31/15 11:49am

Trenches are always the KEY to the game

Heinz57

3/31/15 12:56pm

Last year had all the talent in the world huh?

Gerald-DeGroot

3/31/15 12:17pm

This debate reminds me of the arguments about whether it was Taysom or the WR's.

Ash

3/31/15 2:44pm

Not with that attitude they won't!
