Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

And why ?

Masoli, he needs to prove last week was a fluke and that he is the leader of this team, that he has the confidence the throw the ball and make the right decisions with the read option and not to look down the WR, spread the ball around, use Dickson more, etc.

It's Chip Kelly by a mile. If Oregon shows up as unexcited and unfocused as they did at Boise Chip won't last through the year. While the offense looked horrible and the defense couldn't stop Boise on 3rd down, the worst part of the game was how unprepared the team was, which is all on the Head Coach.

I agree that Chip Kelly has the most pressure, after all he is the one who is ultimately responsible for the team! Go Ducks!

Coach Kelly for sure... its his squad, he needs to make sure they're prepared to play. Even if we lose the game, we have to at least look competitive... to look good and lose is one thing, but to look unprepared and lost and lose is horrible.

GO DUCKS

How about an all of the above option?

Without good play from the offensive line, Masoli, Kelly, and the running game will all look bad. It all starts in the trenches for this offense.

An all of the above option wouldn't make much sense...they can't all have the most pressure this weekend.

While I almost put down JM, I truly think that Chip has the most to prove, yes JM and the entire offense sucked last week, and a lot of that blame can probably be placed on the individual players and as a whole the O-line, it is chips job to respond to those problems and fix them (hopefully during the game!) This is Chip's chance to show the fans and the media and the players that he knows what he is doing...if he can't prove that he is in for a rough year...I don't think he will be fired, but there will be a lot of websites I am sure!

I think without a doubt is the O line. Chip Kelly can instrcut them tell them what to do etc etc.. but if the players are given the tools.. told what to do etc etc and they dont do it.. is it really Kelly's fault.. to a point yes.. but it is the players that are not executing the game plan. The O line is where it all starts.. The bad snaps.. the lack of blocking etc etc. You can have Montana or Favre back there and without protection they be squat.. the same goes for the running game. If the O line continues to not do its job.. Masoli... Costa.. Montana.. Favre... you name it.. they wont get it done..O line must do its job.

I think that it's the entire offense since they need to prove that last week was an abnormality and that they can take pressure off the defense so they don't have to stay on the field the entire game.

Masoli, the QB always has the most pressure and usually is the determining factor in Wins and Losses!

He will play better I just wondering how much...

GO DUCKS!!

I almost went with Chip Kelly. He's the coach and he needs to turn this team around asap.

However, Masoli is the one who plays the game and leads the team. He is they key to our success. He's big, fast, and can throw the football. He needs to read the option a lot better than he did against BSU, and he has to do a much better job of seeing the field. Sure the OL wasn't doing a good job, but even when he had time in the pocket, he failed to perform at a high level.

GO DUCKS

All of the above

It's been a tough week on everyone. Not just because they lost or had an "incident" at the end of the game. The media has been our opponent and not one who plays with integrity, in my opinion.

Oregon fans will fill the stadium on Saturday and raise everyone's spirits!

Entire offense + coordinator FTW...

Reasons:

It was a collective bed shitting amongst our O-line, Masoli, Blount, and receivers.

Our offense has never been so pathetic. Kelly has produced some fantastic offensive results (as the coordinator) but now that the situation has changed, its obv his responsibility to fix the problems quickly and return the ducks offense to the form we can grown comfortably used to that racks up the points with minimal resistance.

If we struggle vs Purdue offensively, people are going to start asking a lot of questions. It will not be fun or pretty. I am optimistic we can turn it around a bit.
