The offense had progress in the 2nd half.  Granted, they were coming off 6 quarters that even made Pariani cover his eyes.  But they kept working and started making things happen.  Players and coaches.

Sure in the first half when it was 3rd and 10 and we had Hunt line up under center and run play action, I yelled very un-Christian things at my TV.  And sure there were times that Hunt would just hold the ball forever and not pull the trigger.  I can't see what's downfield, but I think he plays so scared of the INT sometimes that I bet someone was open.  And sure he overthrew Broyld badly on at least one, if not more.

But GMC went back to Smith early in the 2nd half, good.  Got Estime involved much more, good.  Shook things up with a trick play, good.  Great call to West on the near TD (caught Wake in a blitz) and great play by West to turn it into more, good.  Hunt started hitting some more passes in this game, good.  Gulley broke another one, good (I know his workload drives people crazy but that's why, so fast thru the hole if he actually runs upfield).

I thought the OL was ok today, at best.  Not terrible, not great.  Hope that improves next week.

Could be in for a tough week next week against Edsall.  Gameplanning for us won't be that difficult, and he's typically good at that.  But if nothing else, the offense showed some signs of life today, which I guess is a tribute to how bad it has actually been.

Still 3 winnable games on this schedule.  But still 4 lose-able games on this schedule.  Things could be worse.
