WarEagleHunter1221 1,690 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I’ll say this as well, I think our OLine did pretty well in pass protection especially early on. Stidham needs to trust them more and get rid of it a little quicker. Can anybody there comment on the WR and them getting separation or not? Seems like sometimes Stidham had a significant amount of time to throw but wouldn’t pull the trigger. Side Note: Check out Smoke on that sack!!!!!

Now we have a little time to clean some stuff up and put our best product out on the field. Sure it was. First off...they never quit fighting. Certain elements of the offense that alot of us have been clamoring for started to show. Lots of freshmen got significant playing time. OL needs quite a bit of work, but considering they have less than 20 starts combined and first game together, I'll wait to pass judgment until a couple of weeks. Fortunately we have a lesser opponent next week to get some of these issues rectified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you call? I bet not a power up the middle. The defensive line is part of Malzahn’s weapons. Give it a break with the Gus bashing.

Auctoritas 2,826 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I actually have to give the coaches a ton of credit. They know what this team is, and for the first time...well...maybe ever under Gus, they called a game to the strengths and weaknesses of the team. For the most part hid the inexperienced line and running back questions. There were only a couple of times where I shook my head over coaching things.

Whitlow will get the props for scoring the go ahead TD but Kam played pretty good . Had a couple break outs and caught the ball really well out of the backfield. I agree with that. I just kind of feel like Whitlow will do better with the way the OLine is(n’t) blocking. I’m fine with either. They just need to get a rhythm going with one of them and the Oline next game.

Gowebb11 9,309 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Beat a Top 10 opponent to open the season. We have a stud QB, o-line played better than a lot of us expected, defense front 7 manned up, Smoke Monday, Jamie Sherwood, and Daniel Thomas lay wood to people, Seth Williams looked real good, Carlson can kick (and should have not had the pressure on him he had today), Whitlow will be our guy eventually, and the Worm should have been used more. Siposs is our best punter. Too many penalties, DBs got torched and looked lost at times, need an edge rusher, kickoff returners need to fair catch more. High potential for huge season, lots of work to do, but talent is there. WDE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnacle 9,064 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Hard time evaluating RBs with the line blocking as it it did. I thought Boobie and Kam both did some things well, and some other things not so well. Also think Kam had some trouble with the turf - thought I saw him struggle with his footing on multiple plays.

Tigercj 242 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Happy for the team. Defense looked good upfront still something's to work out in secondary. Someone needs to take the two point conversion out of the play book for now. Grimes will get the o line in shape and we need to clean up the penalties. I hope we open the play book more especially in the red zone. But again very happy for these young men. War Eagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refer to the "effiminate" fan remarks earlier in the thread. I think some of you guys watch the game just so you have something to whine about.

ValleyTiger 2,894 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 War Damn Eagle! Solid win, great to get off the snide in ATL against such a quality opponent. Really uncharacteristic of a Gus team to have that many penalties. MUST clean that up. Gotta evaluate the OL and run game going forward. Defense stepped up when we needed them the most.
