Reasons aren't "excuses."   And there were a long list of reasons why the offense was out of sync:
[LIST]
[*]DeVito making his first start, on the road
[*]Unsettled OL having to adjust in 2nd quarter and shuffle guys around
[*]WR unit dealing with injuries all camp, weren't on sync
[*]No film on Liberty
[*]Adjustments were made by coaches, but players hadn't practiced them because Freeze et al threw some wrinkles at them
[*]Keeping the offense simple, vanilla, and not trying to go downfield which made it easy for Liberty to not have to be concerned about the long ball
[*]The team playing their first game of the season, when they are not in a groove yet and hence not easier to flip the switch on adjustments
[/LIST]
All of those things are causes for concern, but not all to the same degree.  Need to get the OL settled [which should happen, with a week to prepare] and hope that DeVito and WRs work out the kinks.  If those two things happen, then everything will be fine.
