The flats are closed!!!

Outside of the long TD, we haven't established the run well enough to have their secondary cheat up. They are just playing a shell coverage and rallying to the ball. If we are going to play small ball, the flats have been shut down. So slants and quick outs are going to have to be called in order to pull those defenders closer to the LOS. Their defense is playing very disciplined right now.

Huh? Not what I saw. It looked like Andy thought he saw an opening to take off up the gut. There was no pressure from the left side of the line.

Too many men in the huddle, supposedly. The Panthers didn't think so.

I think he had option since there was a HC change.

Hey, who had an offensive shootout on their bingo cards today?

Evero has to be reconsidering his decision to stay after the defense was gutted.

A truck could have gotten through that hole. The hog mollies are back!

No, it goes to show with a competent QB this one should be in the bag. If a rookie QB boat races our defense, then this team is screwed...again. We finally can generate offense just to have opponents march up and down the field at will in our D. With a greenhorn QB, that would be even more humiliating.

We face rookie QBs 3 out of the next 4 weeks. Got to pick up the 'dubs' in these games as the wins are going to be harder come by after that stretch. The defense has to stiffen up. I think the offense can put enough point on the board to do the job to out duel these rookie signal callers.

Got it back yesterday too. Exactly 8 days as well.

This is one I had penciled in as a win before the season--with Bryce as the starting QB.

This guy is so freaking funny.

Not just any guards, damn good guards. As a LT, it's hard enough to be put on an island with elite edge rushers, but then having to worry about continuously getting beat on the inside as was the case most of last year. You could tell he he was unnerved about getting beat to the inside due to crappy LG play. Now he can focus on the edge and leave the interior rush to the interior guys.

Ickey is a bust....or so I was told by most of the Huddle. He struggled last year, obviously, BUT a majority of that was due to horrid IOL play and refusal to give him any help.

Did Lewis get hurt? I saw Zavala in there at LG for a good part of the 4th quarter.

We poured too much money and resources into the offense for it to suck so bad the first two weeks. It made zero sense. We knew Bryce was bad, but until he got removed from the equation, the rest of the offense and our offensive minded HC--that happens to call plays--could never get a fair evaluation. We now know that all the retooling in the offseason wasn't a complete waste of time and money.

7 or 8 wins.

Almost 700 yards and 5 TDs with zero picks in two games, today and last year in Seattle. Both road games. Dalton is pretty solid.

Great stats, but watch some tape. System QB with an average arm. If he's there in the 3rd, sure take a stab. No higher though.

'26 is looking VERY strong for QBs. That is if all the eligible top guys actually declare. That's the wildcard. If so, it could be another 6 QB first round class.

My thoughts exactly! No, I'm not a Vols fan either. The dude simply has all the tools.

'26 folks. I'm telling you all. Don't fugg'n force it again.

Meh.
