[QUOTE="thunderwear, post: 1479083, member: 445550"] I disagree, there is s lot to like about this game. Our offense is new and haven’t had a lot of time together. Take their dumb turnovers away, and this game isn’t close. Even in its infancy, this offense showed moments of how great it could be. THe biggest weakness and question mark on this team has been line play and passing game. Both were solid yesterday. The o line had an off day. If we are healthy, we can expect improvement here They played a qb, whom we couldn’t gameplan.he was able to play against our depleted dbs, but expect an uptick with the return of brown and joseph and Adams. With our fourth string dbs, we were still able to win. We will get back some solid dbs and won’t need to rely on a walkon so heavily The running game stalled, with the talent at Rb, expect a big bounce back Our kicker can kick We have some depth at dt We seem to have another potential nfl end LB play has been solid I could keep going. We had some bad plays. Most of the Mudpie was served by the offense as the turnovers were costly in terms of points and score, including the turnover on downs. That unit is going to improve week to week. The penalties will be cleaned up. We saw some great things with tight end play and receiver play. We have some work to do. We aren’t a 10 win team. We are a 4 win team that could win 8 if the stars align. Nothing has changed. We will have good weeks and bad weeks. but likely we will win 5 or 6. We are on pace for that. This week is another big one for being bowl eligible. Everyone, quit pretending we are competing for the big west. We should know that we will likely get blown out once. Maybe twice. This is what 5 to 6 win teams look like. [/QUOTE]
