If the spring is any indication, I think we will be happy with respect to these two things (gotta stop dropping so many passes, though).
A big component of completion percentage is decision making and I was quite happy with that in the spring. He was comfortable, waited for things to develop but took his checkdowns and picked up what he could on the ground when it wasn't there. I'm not even remotely claiming this is the best defense he'll face all year, but in terms of aggressiveness and baiting bad decisions it'll rank right near the top. I think there is tremendous value in terms of mental reps to go against this defense every day.
A lot of this will be determined by Satterfield's playcalling and Rhule's game management. One example from the spring was a 3rd and long where we ran a RB angle from the backfield with a TE on a shallow cross forming kinda a mesh concept. That particular play resulted in a first down, but even if it hadn't I'd much rather see then get the ball to a player that can run even if it is just to set up 4th down than I would dropping back and yolo bombing everything.
