Running game is going nowhere at the moment.
Yeah, I think our worst fears re the OL have been realized. Hope they can figure it out quickly.
They are rolling out JA because the o line is not trustworthy

They have hit him a few times but by and large he has had time. Our d backs are (as usual) leaving gaping holes in coverage and we have to blitz to get the pressure so we are leaving larger holes for their receivers.

I believe we need to get lots and lots of players in the portal.

13-7. OK.

Given how we've played so far, it could be a LOT worse.
Maybe that TD drive will give settle JA down and boost his confidence.

Considering JA has thrown 2 picks and the defense has been kind of average, i feel pretty good only being down 6.

The D is giving up yards, but bowing up on their side of the field. Hey, I'll take that any night.

This defense has been a little Jekyll and Hyde tonight. They give up the long pass into double coverage, then a few plays later they have the big sack to push them out of FG range.

I kind of disagree with that last part about portal. Some patience will be required, but the studs coming on the defensive front will make the LBs better and the secondary better as well
