Message: [QUOTE="Guru13, post: 4375275, member: 8366"] [B]Offense:[/B] Qb: Our offense did well coming out the gate first quarter, but after TQ got hurt it seemed we went with a conservative approach with ZT. The team needs to quickly figure out how to get ZT up to speed with college football, he’s always been a winner so hopefully this Loss will motivate him play lights out the rest of the year if TQ is out for the season. Those two costly picks happened outside the pocket with ZT throwing the ball across his body, maybe he needs to just pull it and run next time or throw the ball to the side that the corner cannot make a play for it but rather the receiver can catch it. Our Qbs(ZT)are gonna have to go through their read progression a step faster. I thought TQ had a better command and remained calmed headed with the offense, hope he is back soon. Oline: I thought the O-line did a good job pass protecting and run blocking, I do not think Lundt is ready yet, most pressure came from his side and Utah St capitalized off him because they know he is nursing an acl injury, but maybe he bounces back after this game. A positive note is the O-line did not allow a sack and not a lot of qb hits/pressures. Rbs- Carter is gonna be a monster for us, I’m okay with running the ball down team throats and killing the clock as long as we can score and our defense can make stops. Carter single handedly with the help of the o-line kept offense in the game at times. Brewton and Houston did okay, but they do not have the vision and cutbacks/power, and explosiveness like Carter during the handoffs. Regardless, our Rbs will have plenty of opportunities to score. Wrs- This will be a work in progress, hopefully most of our wrs can be back soon from minor injuries. Losing Keelan will be a huge blow for the team because he is such a competitor and has a killer dawg instinct. A. Turner, needs to keep his feet underneath him and do a better job at making sure he cuts precisely on his routes, the last INT ZT threw, Turner should’ve fought for the ball, but he seemed to be lazy on the route. Nevertheless, we’re gonna need receivers to step it up and Charlton to draw up plays that get them open. TEs- hope we can utilize them more, one of them made a nice pancake block on one of Carter’s runs. [B]Defense:[/B] I thought we did a good job hanging in there defensively, but we have a lot to clean up. I’m not a fan of playing soft coverage with the secondary every single down unless it’s 3rd and long. We did great on stopping Utah st on the ground most of the time though. Dline: the lost of Travis jones blows because you can see a difference of how much of an impact he had on the line. This particular group did not impress me because we were getting caught up to high during the game and not stuffing the middle/getting pressure on the qb. We were missing the transfer from ODU I think but hopefully our dline causes havoc and not get manhandled at the line. Linebackers: we did a really good job, but gotta wrap up in crucial moments. We got bigger and stronger, but I felt on blitz dialed up, we were A to slow getting to the qb and B missing gaps and allowing the RB get loose, but we did a good job gang tackling and running to the football. Secondary: I’m not sure what my thoughts are on the secondary, the soft coverage is not going to work to our advantage if we allow teams to just run hitches and outs and give up 8 yards every play on passing plays. Utah st wrs and qb gave us a couple of bail outs by dropping the ball and over throwing a few of them. I think our dbs should be aggressive on the line against other Wrs, but who knows why we don’t play man press. [/QUOTE]
