Very few mistakes last night. None of the stupid penalties, drops, or fumbles that plaqued the offense prior to this game. O-line looks like it found the right combination with Dworck coming around at LT, and the addition of Turner and Alexander. A legitimate stud at RB in Hill. He brings something extra to the running game. Mett is looking better and the play calling was pretty good last night as well. I liked the mix of plays last night. I think the offense is about to break out and be average. Maybe even better than that.

Outside of Ware at qb, the play calling hasn't changed. We just finally executed.

With our defense, all we need is average.

I actually see promise. Honestly couldn't say that the last few years, because we didn't have a "capable" quarterback. Mett hasn't been great, but he isn't at a differnt level than the guys from the last few years.

I think we finally found average. But I think we showed signs that more than that can come.

The timing between the Qb and WRs is the one thing holding them back IMO. Very confident Coach Krag can improve this part of the offense and get Mett more comfortable with the offense.

Play calling has changed. Throwing on first and second down early in the game was huge for the offense, IMO.

This. Set up the run nicely. I was more than pleasantly surprised. But like a previous poster said, I need to see more than one game. But maybe good karma pays us a visit and we hit our peak vs. Bama. Because we will need that to beat the shite out of them like I'm hoping.

The O line played their butts off. Great combo scheme w/backs on Clowney.
However, little changed game-plan wise other than throwing some of our quick outs/slants on first.
I the red-zone, for the most part, we ran the same I formation w/double stacked TE's. we ran it over and over again. With no variance in the formation, they loaded the box w/10 b/t the tackles. It didn't/won't work against ANYONE with a half-decent D.

I finally felt the "mojo" last night if you catch my drift. Especially on Reid's pick
