Good, get jojo and cam on the field as much as possible. They are playmakers.

Has Miles Jones seen any playing time this year?

I saw him a couple times out on the field but no looks his way yet

[BIG ERN]

I still feel we should actually be a multiple defense this year and not just talk about it. 4-3 should def happen at least a handful of times each game. 

 

Davis, Daniels, Daniels, Davis would be a bitch to block even for teams like Wisconsin and Iowa. Switch to 3-4 and some nickel at times as well.

Sounds like you're introducing two acquaintances at the Bar Association's annual banquet.

Jorgensen isn't even listed either at the PK spot.  That's disappointing.

I'd like to see Davis / Daniels / Davis / Stille in a four man front against Wisconsin at least in the first quarter to see if it can work.

I'd like to see Lee and Cam at Saftey as well. Wonder when Williams will be available again.

I want to see Mills come in this week and find holes and come up big for us with the interior running. That would feel amazing and would totally change the dynamic of the offense.

 

Washington might have to stop shying away from contact a bit, also. I know his big strengths lie in cutting it outside but we just have to get something going in the running game here that resembles more of last season.

It's a little peculiar there's no offensive line changes as many have identified it as our biggest issue and we have about 12 guys ready to go according to coach Austin.

[roadrat]

Is Cade Warner close to returning. He made some important catches last year and we could use his smarts running routes

If he's not able to find holes against NIU then I'm concerned about his effectiveness overall.  He hasn't really impressed so far, IMO.

Yeah I’d really like to see Mills finding some holes. He’s built for and has the mentality for interior running but he just hasn’t shown he has field vision yet. I can’t blame all of that on him or the OL, but between the 2 it hasn’t been happening yet.

 

If Mo can do it, great, but man I will cringe everytime he doesn’t shy away from contact. He just doesn’t seem big enough or sturdy enough to take much abuse and I’d hate to lose him for what he can do. Kid has serious wheels. All I know is we need an interior running game and it hasn’t happened yet.
