Nothing new or earth shattering here, I just need to vent somewhere, and my girlfriend and my dog are sick of hearing about it.
- King is a tough, gutty, athletic quarterback that gives his all, but it's clear he's not a game changer at this level. He's not getting very much help at all so I'm sympathetic, but he can't raise this team up. A great or even really good quarterback might.
- I can't think of the last time Cam Harris made a guy miss. Give him a clear lane and he's pretty effective. But RBs have to create some juice on their own. He has none.
- Mallory is pretty **** close to entering bust territory. He could still turn it around but man. If your can't block consistently, and you can't make important catches, what value are you exactly? A decoy?
- OL is still a disaster. Somehow they're actually worse than last year. No one is consistent. For all the Zion 1st round talk I'm not sure he's even an NFL practice squad guy right now.
- There is not 1 LB on this roster who would even be in the 2 deep on any of our great or even good teams. Not one.
- Our starting safeties are good in run support but useless in all other aspects. Don't you have to have some manner of utility when the ball is in the air to be a starting FBS safety? Everywhere but here I guess.
- I still think Lashlee is a fine OC. But he's not a miracle worker. With a decent OL and better QB he'd look like a genius. But he's slow to slow to adjust to the limitations he has to work with.
- I don't know if Diaz is coaching to not care about keeping contain or of we just can't do it but I've never seen anything like it since maybe the '97 season or some of D'Nofrio's crapfests.
- The lack of toughness is inexplicable. I don't care about Rique getting burned on that double move. It was desperation time and he jumped a route to make a play. He's one of about 4 or 5 guys on the entire roster who play with passion and intensity.
- Diaz should go full early Butch era and let the young guys get experience. But since he's coaching for his job, and he clearly trusts the veterans no matter what, we're actually likely to see less, not more of the young guys.
- This team has a flare for the inexplicable leading to disaster. The Mallory TD drop, the Hall video game glitch, Zion completely whiffing on a basic outside shoulder move.. it's surreal.
Oh there's more.. But feel free to add on.
