Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 5149274, member: 628"] Nailed it. A day later and there are many, many more things to be optimistic about than not. People are really underselling the passing game. We have a slew of receivers who can catch now! Think about how long that’s been a problem here. And we have a QB who can put the ball on a dime downfield. No one since Nassib could come close to that. The specials were excellent. Punting was a strength the few times we needed it. Coverage was good. We even got some doink luck. Brown and Nixon’s play calling was aggressive and well mixed. And the lack of procedure penalties, delay flags and panicked time outs was a revelation. The D needs to get their heads out of their @sses executionally. The plays were there to be made and they whiffed over and over. Suggests that’s not a scheme issue, just need those guys to play with much more purpose. Anyone hanging their head after yesterday is looking for reasons to be down. [/QUOTE]
