So far very happy with the passing game and run defense. Not enough rushes yet to see how I feel about the running attack, passing D outside of Purchase hasn't impressed.

Also, I see we still have the "almost get a sack, give up a big gain" play in our repertoire!

I realize it’s the 1st game, but I’m a bit concerned about the defensive front 7.

Pressure on the QB has been spotty. Want to see Will Mac start getting to the QB

I realize it’s the 1st game, but I’m a bit concerned about the defensive front 7.

Im more worried about the back seven. They've been running open a fair amount of the time and we've missed a lot of open field tackles. THey've done nothing on traditional runs which is where the front 7 is more typically a factor.

Not a lot of pressure but 3 getting pressure on 5 or 6 is tough

And I know its not really part of the system but I;d love to see press coverage against an FCS team.

Pressure is hard to get when the QB go can 1,2,3 balls out. And he doesn't have to hold it when we're 8 yards off the lOS

"A little stiffy right there." LOL

 

[CycloneErik]

I think it's a catch, because I want to. Make that the case.

 

[DeereClone]

Even though Noel dropped it that was a dime

 

[CyGuy5]

Now that’s the Tom Manning playcall I was expecting

The bubble screen has not been there.

No reason for it.

Scrap it and get downhill.

Defense is not looking great right now but this is why we play these games to make adjustments and better the team, good things we play a team with no passing game next week

Let’s hope

Can we stop telegraphing the stupid swing pass? 4 times in one half might be a bit much.

 

[CycloneVet]

I had a stiffy too

 

[xboxfever]

You could see that play the entire way.

No

All short passes to the side are fails

 

[stewart092284]

My man.... you're going to need to kick the ball quicker

 

[Clone95]

Great punt!

 

[khardbored]

LIKE: HD's deep passes
WOULD LIKE TO SEE: A run game and some success in passes near the line

 

[madguy30]

Yeah that's stuff you do at 35-0 not 21 when the D is having issues.
