    I honestly don’t get the people freaking out at all.

    They had a conservative run first game plan in a game with shitty weather and a completely new QB. It worked. If special teams doesn’t spot the beavs 10 points we aren’t even having this discussion.

    And for all of the hand wringing about the defense they gave up 14 points. There clearly is stuff to improve on but I don’t think anyone was under the impression this was anything other than a transition year.

    Run D always gets off to a slow start it seems. I would think it would improve and likely will, but we are in trouble without Tuli and Latu.
    Bowman and Sirmon get blown out of virtually every play I re-watched. These guys cannot fight off blocks or bring down ball carriers.

    In terms of grades, Dylan Morris is class valedictorian compared to Bowman and Sirmon, who are in detention.

    Just some perspective. Also, the OL was great in the run game.

    I still liked it more than a Bush Hamdan offense. But yeah, that second half was ugly. The lack of any semblance of a big play or downfield passing game is going to kill us.

    Fuck that I'd take Bush back in a heartbeat over that dreckfest.

    @Babushka >>> Bush >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> JonDonFuckingDreckfest

    The de-evolution of our offense is complete.
    I liked that Donovan wasn't afraid to nut up and take the easy yards when we needed them. Too often under Bush we'd be in third and short and pull some low percentage play out of our ass instead of just taking the first down by force. The use of the fullback was a nice touch too.

    Now the second half autopilot game plan of Newton between the guards was fucking stupid. And only letting Morris throw downfield 2-3 times all game is a concerning foreshadowing against better teams. If we really are as one-dimensional as we looked last night, then yeah, we're fucking toast.
    Sark and Pete loved to get cute and start passing when the run game dominated, I like that we just went with the run. Builds a physical mentality.
    Unless a meathead is doing it. Then it's FS.

    I like the way Morris looked coming out of the pocket a couple times. A good run and a nice side arm to someone I cant remember maybe bynum

    I like to overreact after a new HC's first game which was a win.

    You knew here?
    If I was would I know to use one of the board's classic lines?

    See now I wrote basically the same thing but was downvoted to oblivion and yet you are upvoted to eternity.

    You know it’s actually quite funny, Rob Bowron and his partner Bryant Conger have been calling him Josh Donovan since the hiring in January. Every now and then they realize the mistake but they never remember the next time they discuss Jon Don.
