Is this real life? How is this even possible? How in the world can the OL not handle a 4 man rush from McNeese? Even with inept coaching/schemes, at some point the talent alone should be enough to not get beat like they were...


It is not all OL although I agree it is underwhelming. My point here is that Max at times, especially under blitz pressure, gets the deer in the headlights. Like it or not Nuss was able to avoid the rush and get passes off and on target. If the QB has the poise to stand back there and burn the coverage then guess what… the blitzes will stop or slow way the hell down.

I agree, on one play McNeese had six definitely blitzing and although the o-line missed an assignment and a defender came free and got the sack, Johnson should have read this and been ready to hit his hot route where the blitz came from and could have possibly avoided a sack.

Pre snap reads are horrible.

Man i like the energy Nuss brings, his mobility is off the charts and to be honest i dont think he threw one ball that shouldnt have been caught.

Blitzes? OP wrote that it was a four man rush.
