Raiola - Fibula

Hopefully the WR’s have had a bunch of reps with Teef so far, because he throws a much different ball. More zip, and way less loft! That moon ball Dylan threw to Key last night, that he dropped, came down with the point down, and hit Key in the facemask. It was like he was throwing it in a barrel! Pretty ball, but his throws might be too pretty for guys that struggle to get open! Zip them in there, and let the WR make a play. Also, nobody talks about it, but I feel like DR is a bit like Shadildo, and is afraid of his stats vs risk at times! Rhule and Dana’s expressions confirm this. One more thing - Why the fuck was DR pouting in the back when Teef was trying to mount a comeback?! If he was the “Captain” he’s portrayed to be, you’d think he’d be on the sidelines firing up the boys, and cheering on his boy Teef. DR is a baller. He’s not the baller he thinks he is. He could be! Team needs more tools. I kept yelling last night “Give the fucking ball to EJ every play! He’s the best fucking player on the team, and the odds are better with the ball in his hands without a doubt!” EJ is here because of Dana, and that’s about the best (AND POSSIBLY ONLY) thing Dana has done for the team.

Going to force Holgorsen to trust Lateef. We didn’t give him much of a chance last night. He can be a lot better. The one downfield pass they let him throw actually looked great.

We aren’t better off without Raiola, but we aren’t nearly as bad off as the effort last night made it seem.
According to post game, there were more pass calls made, but Lateef pulled and ran instead. So not sure it’s fair to blame it all on play calling
 
Yeah, I'm happy to have Lateef, but he's got some work before he's ready to be a big-time P2 starter.

That said, with prep & a tailored game plan, he does have some tricks in his bag, and I think we can patchwork a scheme together if the rest of the team is holding up & TJ doesn't have to go win it himself.
He’s a true freshman with minimal pt and hasn’t played since Week 3.
Thrown into the middle of a game with zero first team reps during the week he probably about as well as anyone would do
