Positive things to take away from today!

Nothing really. Pass rush was good. Star impressed me. 

 

Things that were bad:

 

1. Secondary is terrible.

2. Cam just doesn't have that x-factor that wins games.

3. Bad play calling.

4. Special teams suck.

5. Penalties.

6. Did Luke play today? 

7. Our luck, we used it all up during Jakes years with the team. I watched him do some amazing things when we were the Cardiac Cats. 

I have to defend Cam here. I thought he actually played very well. Only one bad throw that I can remember. Obviously, Riviera or Shula wants Cam to be a game manager type of QB. He excelled at that IMO. The problem is, Cam is not a game manager. He is not a classic, drop back, stay in the pocket QB, and trying to utilize him that way is ignorant. Cam is part of the new breed of NFL QB's. Cam is a playmaker. By the looks of game #1, our coaching staff wants Cam to make his teammates the playmakers. Problem with that, outside of a couple of players, there are no other playmakers. Putting him in handcuffs, or in Cam's case, leg shackles, will not win this team very many games. 

Oh, I am glad to see that when Cam did run, it looks like he has learned to get down and avoid the big hits.

Defensive front seven looked great, just got tired at the end. The secondary gave up some plays but our offense actually scoring some points would help that. Kinda wish Gamble were still out there, honestly, but the secondary is young and can improve. We need to pass more, obviously, and I actually think we should run more read option plays.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
