Part of it may be because our sidearm throwing QB* has a hard time throwing over

the middle without his passes getting knocked down.

*I actually really like Retzlaff and think he's an upper tier Big 12 QB, but this criticism of him is fair IMO.

The disappointing ineptitude of BYUs TEs in one stat:

I like swanson, wish he'd get more PT. Actually use Hill when he's in too.

A little misleading. Lohner has three catches for three touchdowns.

RalphWiggam

When the offense has struggled in large portions like it has I’d say ineptitude

HRCougar

Sep 30, 12:31am

Ummm… how many points does a team need to score to not be inept? Sure BYU has

NYC and Japan

Sep 30, 6:56am

We have scored over 30 points the last 3 games...

Adwight

Sep 30, 9:16am

And our entire TE room has 14 total catches through five games

HRCougar

Sep 30, 12:36am

Yeah, go ahead and eye roll this one too.

HRCougar

They can't refute your argument. Your point is 100% correct.

gopman

If you insist. Though I do agree that the TE's need to be more involved in short

Holy crap. That sucks.

High percentage of catches are touchdowns...sounds like Isaac Rex.

It may not all be on Arod. I noticed Retzlaff completed a nice

It seems clear that the ineptitude is on the part of ARod in that he doesn’t know

You may recall that it was also a recurring issue when Jaren was QB - lots of

This stat isn't fair. Caleb has 3 receptions. Show us number of targets. Show us the number of designed plays called etc

HarlemCoug

Lohner only has 3 catches

JOPE

BYU 5-0, Caleb Lohner's team 4-1

I'd rather have won with no TE TDs (BYU) than lost (yewts)

Brandoblueblood

Sep 30, 7:55am

Completely agree but that's not the point at all

HRCougar

Sep 30, 8:32am

You know TEs do more than catch, right?

Brandoblueblood

Sep 30, 1:45pm

Why TE’s matter at BYU

Disagree with your comparison, but agree with the critique

Almost the whole room is gone next season

I know we haven't seen him much but - Bowers?

oxcoug

Based on the attrition, it will be his time to shine

What happened to highly touted Jackson Bowers? Do we still have him? Maybe he

Finding ways to get the TEs more involved should be the focus of the offense during the bye week

mokelembembe

Sep 30, 6:46am

Exploiting AZ D weaknesses, dealing with AZ D strengths, scoring points, winning

NYC and Japan

Sep 30, 7:20am

No the focus should absolutely be running the ball

puntersarepeople

Sep 30, 8:00am

BOTH (TE's & RB's) are needed if we're going to beat Arizona.

gopman

Sep 30, 8:08am

Especially since UA's secondary looked pretty sharp outside of about 2 plays

SoBlueitHurts

Sep 30, 1:04pm

That is not the Tight Ends ineptitude. Your headline is misleading

Goliath

Sep 30, 8:06am

ARod did a bad job with TE at Utah as well.

dodgersjazzcougs

Sep 30, 8:22am

Couldn’t agree more…

SoggyBB

Sep 30, 8:59am

I’d like to see BYU’s tight ends and RB’s being targeted on passes a lot more.

NonmormonYfan89

Sep 30, 9:01am

That TD to Miles Davis was great. Maybe a few more like that

SoBlueitHurts

Sep 30, 1:05pm

Agreed! The BYU I grew up watching utilized their TE’s and RB’s in the pass

NonmormonYfan89

Sep 30, 2:41pm

Too many TE's to name, as for RBs, lots of those too, but Jamal Willis, Curtis

SoBlueitHurts

Sep 30, 2:47pm

just win baby!

Garn

Sep 30, 10:16am

Our TEs contribute much like Caleb Lohner for Utah

VB2

Sep 30, 10:22am

Kind of true actually now that you made me think about that

Undefeated

Sep 30, 10:27am

Is it cuz Jake can't find, play needs max pass pro, or A-rod don't see skillz?

I’d love to see more Trio out of 11 personnel.
