We are shying away from throwing bombs because they require the pass protection to hold up long. (We also could use some more speed in the receiving corps, Zeed.) Also, we aren’t getting big plays on defense and special teams due to lack of pressure. But 60-43 on third and fourth down will win a lot of games.

We’ve lost the plays in 3 of the 6 games. We need to improve to be a truly strong team. We’re showing sings in the running game and our run defense. But our pass defense was poor in the last two games and our kicking game can’t be relied on. Our opponents this year have attempted 10 field goals. They’ve made 9, (thank you, Georgia Tech), but keeping the other team out of the end zone has allowed us to go 3-1 while we struggle through these games.
