Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 12957, member: 485"] Nice analysis GoSU96. The stats show the passing attack was just fine -- Nassib and our two top receivers are the strength of the team. Graham and Stevens look like they are coming along. We can disagree about whether giving up 3 sacks and a few pressures -- against Rhode Island -- is a decent performance from the OL. But the real issue (as others have posted) is the lack of a running attack. Not much push from the OL. Not much confidence that the OL can convert on 3rd and short or 4th and short -- again, this was Rhode Island. So what can Marrone do? Maybe Moore gets into the RB mix by week 5. Marrone has kept this OL group together from day 1 in the Spring, but maybe it is time to work Lou Alexander into the mix? There aren't a lot of other levers to pull but there has to be concern about having some run/pass balance. [/QUOTE]
