Great Article Chris.........very good read and some excellent points made on the success/disappointment of the season as well as the 2008 parallel.
The stats on the offense are damning. Again, I dont know how you can retain an OC under whose tenure.
This season had
The fewest total passing yards since the mid-90’s despite playing 14 game
The fewest passing yards per game since the Majors II era?
Only one game out of 14 with 200 passing yards?
In 14 games, Pitt was held to one or zero touchdowns six times
The Panthers also lost three games in 2017 when they score one or zero offensive touchdowns (Penn State, Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech). So in the last 26 games, 14 of which have been losses, Pitt has been held to one or zero offensive touchdowns nine times.
As I said in another post Duzz loses all credibility with the fans, recruits, and most importantly the team if he maintains status quo with Watson.
He also loses credibility by pumping up the QB whose performance lead to the epically bad passing game.
