So, Elijah Robinson?

[AZOrange]

Erob can coach lol don’t worry

 

[texascpa]

Serious question - did we blitz once? I don't think we did.

 

[cusefan88]

Plenty of cleanup to do. I'm sure the staff isn't happy. Room to improve

 

[CIL]

It was a rough debut. Kids played “slow” and were out of position more often than not.

There are going to be bumps when a team transitions from one scheme to another, but man this was tough.

I did not see any blitzes, I was watching. We showed blitz a few times but never came.

I think there was a lot of thinking and not a lot of natural reacting

In the first half.. Wax had roughly 3 blitzes.. not sure if they were designated "run" blitzes or not.. BUT they ran awya from it 3 times and he got taken out of the play and probably contributed for 40+ yards before halftime

We blitzed at least one and their qb made a nice read on it

 

[cusefan88]

They need to figure out personnel groupings. I think they tinkered a lot and probably overdid it.

 

[blizz]

Shenanigans galore.

I'm not falling for it.

 

[kingtidge]

No real improvement? It was horrid. Rocky Long and Tony White were legit coordinators. Has to improve immensely to win 7 games

First game and all, but Jesus Christmas... Agreed.

Of course he can coach. But he’s in a new role right? There’s a learning curve. Let’s hope he and the D scale it quickly.

Cuz today was lousy.

Absolutely

 

[baggerbob]

There will be a whole lot of teaching points in the film room this week. We're going to find out quick what we have in this coaching staff by the response in next week's game.

The back 7 were terrible constantly out of position, overran plays. Got faked out many times, didn't wrap up on tackles, instead went for big hits and missed.
McCord was good, and so we're the receivers. Allen is a good pass catcher, but only an OK runner, lacks that breakaway speed, and isn't big enough to run through people.
Trying a pitchout with him didn't go anywhere.
The passing game was great, but hopefully we can find a running game.

 

[smartman]

The troubling part was the horrid tackling across the board.i am worried that does get fixed quickly. It didn't seem like scheme.

I didn't think any level loked good. I expected a really strong secondary but didn't look good.

 

[OrangeinBoston]

Fran said the defense wasn't doing what they do in practice.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Maybe some personnel changes too

how about duce and grant switch back to their old positions where they at least looked competent.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Exactly. Not every D line coach is cut out to be a coordinator.

 

[OrangeBlood]

Did Isiah Hastings play at all? Didn’t notice him once. Jobity and Tank were starting DTs. Don’t see Hastings in box score.

 

[dwilmont44]

Fran said the defense wasn't doing what they do in practice.

Which concerns me about the OL. Only 4.2 yards per carry against Ohio with McCord throwing all over them.

But LQA was over 6 a carry.

 

[Trueblue25]

Elijah gets a pass in my book.

Their rb was legit and its the first game for a new coach. The pads were popping and we looked energized. My concern is the interior DL seemed to get no push until mid way through the second half. I think we’ll be fine though.

I really, really want you to be right.

All the missed tackles and inability to contain the edge seemed beyond bad.

 

[0.2 YNdeeR]

But LQA was over 6 a carry.

He was, and the offense looked pretty good, especially through the air. But AT3 averaged almost 13 per carry, including a couple long runs. He gashed us for 200+ and made us look pretty silly trying to stop him. Navaro also had a lot of time to throw -- our pass rush was feeble outside of FD. and we had no answer for Owen (10 rec. 120+). Happy to get the W and work through some growing pains. But there is a ton of work to do on D to be competitive against GT next week.

 

[BVille44]

The defensive game plan was vanilla. Didn’t see blitzes. I think next week we will see a better performance.

My thoughts exactly. Tackling was poor but vanilla is the best way to describe the play calling.
