Btw - 10-2 was the ceiling prediction and that’s very much in play.

But fuck, 11-1 would’ve been dope. Although I believe we will be beating State Penn this year.

I think DR is more than capable in Holgo’s offense if you give him a legit offensive line. And to OP’s point about mesh concepts. They’re not gonna be effective if neither your RB or QB threaten the defense with their running ability.

I don’t think we have the personnel to run mesh concept RPOs. JMO

What does running ability have to do with the mesh? Mesh is just shallow pick routes. Are you thinking RPO or am I missing something?

part of that is because Biff's Butthole Surfers's pass rush was winning with 4 or occasionally 3 rushers. that means you have 7 or 8 defenders in coverage, and when we start using the TE or RB to help with pass protection it makes the numbers even worse

people love to complain about sacks, but the alternative is usually forcing the ball into coverage which results in INTs like last year. outside of the one throw where he misread the coverage Dylan did a good job with ball security and not putting the ball in risky spots

expecting him to "move around better" is kind of ridiculous, imo. yesterday he did well to avoid the rush and made some key completions after making guys miss or breaking a tackle in the backfield.

Picking nits here so my apologies, but I’m 100% positive the db on Dylan’s interception operated outside of the called defense on that play.

Meaning: Dylan actually made the correct read (it was man2man with safety help) the db just went rogue and made a play. If Dylan held the ball for a half second longer the seam route that was supposed to be covered by the db would’ve had 15+ yards at least.
