[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 746110, member: 265"] Glad you liked it. On Sims: I think he needs to do two things. First, he needs to complete a long pass or two. As a post above pointed out, UCF was lining up in the box like they would have against one of Paul's teams. I.e. they were going to stop the short/intermediate passing game and ignore long throws. They're on good grounds there; Brown has disappeared as a long threat. This is probably a matter of scheming for an O Sims can run rather then some kind of deficit in his arm strength, but until he shows otherwise teams are going to copy UCF. Second - and here I saw some progress - he needs to run more. He's still gaining most of his run yards by avoiding the rush. For which three cheers, of course, but he can make the entire run O work better if he runs with purpose. I saw that the coaches agree; he ran ye olde QB sweep, the play Tobias lived on, during the game. More of that and more double options and more misdirection (RB and blocking go one way, QB goes the other) please. On Gibbs: He's fast alright and knows how to pick a hole. He should definitely return KOs for us. As to his running, I wished Mason was out there. Like Griffin last year, he can't create a hole. We needed that in the 3rd. Also, I noticed that his blocking could, shall we say, use a little work. Obviously the coaches agree; he was out in routes on most pass plays, not staying in to block. In short, once he learns to block he'll be something. Btw, the guy who really impressed me was Dontae Smith. He needs to play more. He can block and, imho, he runs harder then either Gibbs or Griffin. But that's up to the coaches. There. Now you have something to disagree with. [/QUOTE]
