I think the defensive front got a little lazy.

I do think the look more formidable....but they definitely let up and it's just awfully hard to get your ass back in gear when you do that.

Disappointing lack of focus, to be sure.

The offense looks like a carbon copy of what we were doing under Drink….

I mean I wasn’t expecting a complete makeover but it looks exactly the same.

JohnnyHammersticks · 08-31-2023, 08:55 PM

Defense looks worse than last season so far. Got bailed out on a missed face mask penalty.

He'll get another 'live' possession before this becomes burn the clock time.

And it's like a round of golf; a single good shot on 18 makes the whole day of duffing feel worthwhile.

Still plenty to show today, Sam - get it done.

BryanBusby · 08-31-2023, 08:57 PM

Uh oh

Jerm · 08-31-2023, 08:59 PM

Why on earth are you having Burden return punts right now???

So stupid.

Eh - again, I think it did the first 3 possessions.

But by far and away my biggest issue with the offense last year was that it was all shallow or verts. I felt like there were just way too many parts of the field they left unchallenged. They really didn't do a very good job of working the middle of the field.

They did a little more of that in the first half today. Still not as much as I'd like to see but not quite 'carbon copy' either.

And jesus tapdancing christ, Burden - you have GOT to protect yourself better. That's 3 times you've gotten yourself blasted by leaving that chest exposed. Best ability is availability kid - you won't make it 3 weeks at this rate.

I know you're tall but you're gonna have to learn to run behind your pads a bit more, man.

An idiotic decision from an idiotic HC.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 08-31-2023, 09:00 PM

They're going to kill Burden.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 08-31-2023, 09:02 PM

Great, Mike Solari is playing calls for Horn.

dlphg9 · 08-31-2023, 09:03 PM

What a competition. One guy gets 4 whole passes.

OKchiefs · 08-31-2023, 09:04 PM

won’t even let Horn pass it anymore

Let's get the monkey of Sam's back.

Put it in his hands and let him get that first college TD.
