Thoughts post Northwestern

Yes... I was being told during the offseason that his brothers success got him to dial in and he had a really good off season.

Yeah I believe that 1000%

My only push back is, when you look as frightened as he did last year when he played, I don’t believe that’s something that is just “switched off” because your brother was good in the NFL. It’s earned through live reps. I know Rhule runs a lot of full contact and hard practices, so maybe that’s gotten him some confidence.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I don’t know that I’ve seen a P5 QB as outright scared as he played last year. Maybe I’ve blown it out of proportion in my memory of his PT last season

Yeah I don't know if I have ever noticed that... Not saying it wasn't it, but not my read.

If it was, I would agree with you that I don't think that is something you flip on.

His 3 games last year that he saw significant time in were against 3 top 7 defenses.

Fair point. And behind a shitty OL, could explain some “jumpiness”

Exactly, anyone bitching about Rhule or bad wins needs to pump the brakes. I think that was our 14th win in four years yesterday.

23 wins in 6 years -
