[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 743394, member: 265"] 1. I agree on the D, including the letter grade. They won the game for us. Oth, like I said, Blackmon isn't very good, especially on his long throws. If he was we'd be singing a different song today. One problem = we only forced 3 punts. Still, 3 sacks and 6 TFLs is pretty good. 2. Nah. I'd give him a solid B. Good grade for a frosh QB, of course. He did well in avoiding pressure and he made the intermediate throws. [I]But[/I] … he also cost us 7 points and it could have easily been 14. He has to stop that. Reg had the same problem; he tended to throw the ball into coverage too often. (In fact, Sims reminded me a lot of Reg in his first games.) Btw, that first interception was.a bad throw because Sims was being pursued and threw the ball in desperation. He should have ate the loss. He is good at avoiding the rush, but most of his runs weren't designed. He ran when the blocking broke down. What we need to do, imho, is put the fear of him running into our opponents's hearts. That'll make every part of the run game work better. I watched several games yesterday where the QBs weren't even thinking about running on double options. Needless to say, the opposing Ds had little trouble with that. 3. Agree, but I'd give the run game a B- overall. Run blocking wasn't all that great and we didn't do enough with Sims to distract the D from Mason. I expect that'll change. And, sorry, I knew it was Malachi Carter. He and Camp were very good yesterday. I thought having Camp back would make the intermediate passing better and it appears I was right. 4. Complete agreement. The only saving grace = FSU's special teams were easily as bad as ours. If they hadn't been we'd have lost for sure. This [I]can't[/I] continue. 5. Surely you jest. The OL gets a C+. Why did we only allow one sack? Because Sims was good at avoiding the rush. We gave up 6 TFLs too. Decent work on some series, then we'd look like last year. And, as you say, too many dumb penalties. But they'll get better; unit play and all that. (I noticed that the guts on Tech OLs now look like they did in Galiey's day. Ah, well.
