I'm really not seeing it tbh. I didn't think he was a very good playcaller last year either. Last year it was too many jump balls and lazy gameplanning. This year it's even worse. Early on it was way too conservative. It's like he gets fixated on a certain idea every week and refuses to adjust. SMU sent blitzes and played man on damn near every 3rd down. We never adjusted with a man beater concept. DJ was getting eaten up in the pocket before the receivers even got out of their breaks. Where was the hot route or check down? Early on it was like all we did was check down. Now we are getting blitzed constantly and have no check downs? What the actual F? And don't even get me started on those DJ runs near the goal line. The running into 9 man boxes. God there are so many issues. I don't really remember how we got this idea that Norvell is a good playcaller, because he's really not. Among the many changes we need to make this offseason, we need to hire an actual playcaller. Not saying that DJ would win the heisman or something, but a competent playcaller could get a lot more out of our offense.
