    2 points I'd like to make after 7 games.

    They didn’t exist.

    @the insider got me thinking…

    What about a comic book?

    Billy Napier out at Florida

    Alabama would be the worst team in the ACC, right?

    It’s an honest assessment of the reality rather than getting caught up in the moment of defeat, or applying expectations beyond what this team is capable of because it’s what you’d prefer.

    What you are saying is you aren’t comforted by reality. That we are what everyone thought we’d be, which is a team winning 1-2 more than last year, and that doesn’t meet what you want it to be. I get it but it’s not healthy.

    I’m pretty sure I made this point after losing to Michigan so I apologize for repeating myself… but the above is what 95% of teams go thru. Only the elite teams don’t because they don’t have to worry about #1. It’s hard to win. The unbiased market thought we were a 7-8 win team. Wanting more...

    Great start… “plain and simple truth” except for that this is year 3.

    Well, you aren’t disagreeing with much of what I said. The only thing you said that was in disagreement was that you don’t think Key would break free from the hook defender. I see a hook on his heels and a good WR crossing his face. He is by definition open if you lead the ball like you are...

    I didn’t mean to indicate we never ran it. He has key on that play and I’m not sure why he went to back side so quickly. The defenders in are their heels or back pedaling and you lead the WR. Also a first down without any of the scrambling. Defense looked to be in cover 3 with inside leverage...

    Fair enough. I know I don’t have the motivation to go back and map the game and reads out so I’ll believe you over my recollection when watching it live.

    I wrote this elsewhere but sums up my feelings… It’s very frustrating but progression isn’t linear. If we can’t beat Northwestern then there is a legit argument there hasn’t been progression. And then we’ve got other problems. But we’ve seen this team do things they couldn’t or wouldn’t do in...

    But we ARE consistently getting 3 seconds. Is not “3 or less”, it’s “at least 3”. He got 3.35 seconds last night. Over 3.5 without a blitz, and just barely under 3 when they did blitz… and you’d expect that. These aren’t abnormal pass pro TTT’s… but they are abnormal results because of other...

    The thing is… correcting DR is easier than correcting a bad OL. We’ve heard all year that we plan on executing and taking what is given, yet we haven’t seen that on the field. DR is good— and smart—enough to change and help himself. This isn’t a helpless situation. Once again, a clean 3 seconds...
