BigPeterJ Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Ill preface this by saying im truly not an expert by any means. So correct me please. The good: *Mills! He saw the holes, still needs to be a bit more patient, but lots of progress made! *Passing game! Martinez saw more open guys downfield. Still missed a few, and not great, but good progress. *Defense! Still doing their thing. Our Defense is legit! (One worry, i will get too later) *Backups. Honestly i think our offense looks equally as good with Vedral, and our backup receivers/blockers. (Just sayin) The bad: *O-line still missing some blocks. But it was a bit better than last week. *Martinez still looks a lil bit slow (physically and mentally) The ugly: *Our one strength so far- Our Defense- took a hit. We had already lost one of our best safeties, and now Cam Taylor looks like he is out for a long time (hope im wrong). If he is out, we have lost our 2 best safeties (Deontai Williams and now Cam Taylor). I LOVE our defense, but Deontai and Cam were possibly our 2 best defenders, if not our 2 best Safeties in the least. Didnt hurt us today, but against better teams this could be a BIG problem. Probably our best 2 athletes on defense out? We lose alot of our speed defensively, how will we adjust? My biggest worry coming out of this game is this. Thoughts on this? 1 Quote Link to comment

BigPeterJ Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 When i later look back at my posts, 90% of them are useless. I just need to write them out so my mind can process the game. The games this year have confused me, and i really dont know what to make of them. Looking at lastnights game, if NIU didnt make so many mistakes it could have been a close game which concerns me. On the other side of that thought, we also made alot of mistakes and still won 44-8 which is a very impressive score. In other words, i still know nothing. Quote Link to comment
