In the 11-on-11 drills last year, Juice would throw 6 touchdown passes and I'd be in awe. But it rarely showed up on the field come fall. This year, they'll run an 11-on-11 play, the quarterback won't even release the ball, and the assistant coaches will come out firing as soon as the play is over, pointing out every part of the blocking/route running/quarterback reading that was done incorrectly. So while it wasn't as football-pretty, is was very teaching-heavy.

I went back and forth on this many times after leaving camp. We looked like a well-oiled machine last year in camp, but that team rarely found the field. We look disjointed this camp - does that mean we should expect an even worse product on the field this fall? Or does it mean that more teaching is going on this year, and once the product goes live, crisp happens?
