LMAO...this is SO true too! I'm STIL waiting for anyone on our team to make a nice, circus catch and bail Alex out. Seriously. We've seen GREAT catches by the opponents so far for TD's, big 3rd downs, etc. Hell, many have been one-handers with defenders draped all over them!

As many others have said, the philosophy of the coach has to change.

Backs going to have to be against the wall (see saints game)

This staff will only take shots when they have no choice. Is the underlying reason just the mentality? is it because of personnel? Hard to say

You say we are "Stuck" in ground and pound but that's where we want to be. If we were not able to execute it we would take to the air more.

Yes all those areas are subpar according to some.

Schembechler combined superb technical command of the game with a fiery disposition. Schembechler's Michigan teams were known for their fundamentally sound, physical, and fierce style of play. Under his watch, the Wolverines traditionally featured strong defense, dominating offensive lines, and a power-running attack. In the words of one commentator, Schembechler coached a "remorseless and punishing" brand of football

Harbaugh's offense is a combo of Schembechler offense and Walsh WCO passing game. I have no doubt.
