Question about scrimmage?

D-line is relatively young, but read the press release, 2 RSFR had a good day getting into the backfield and causing sacks and fumbles. My guess would be the LBs weren't tackling at the line as well, allowing for some runs in the 5-10 yard range

I know the offense got 230 yards rushing from scrimmage. But does this mean trouble on defense especially the D-line or is the running game fixed already?

You can't take any sort of stats from a controlled scrimmage and make anything out of it. It's not like a regular game. They run WAY more plays than we do in a regular game, plus they work on down and distance and things, not just trying to get first downs and sustain drives.



Some people were trying to rag on Jefferson for only completing 9 of 20 passes or whatever. But Miles said they were working on the long passing game, so if all 20 passes were 25+ yards downfield, 9 out of 20 is not that bad. Or if he'd had gone 20 for 25, but all 25 passes were swing passes to RBs out of the backfield--that would not be nearly as impressive. We just don't know since nobody actually saw it.

if jefferson went 20-25, there would be people complaining that they were all "easy" passes and that he should have gone 25-25



it never ends carl, it never ends.

they had a lot of yards but it was also on a lot of carries. It was a little over 5 ypc for Ridley and Ford

If you look at the stats 10 completions for 100 yards from both Qb's don't average but 10 yards per completion.

It looks like Lee will be the back-up QB not Garrett.
