Offense is way behind where it was last year skill position-wise. On top of that, we're missed some of our starters on the OL. I like JT's attitude, don't look back, keep lookin' forward and get better day by day.

Good news, Gotsis and Jabari are both "unblockable" according to coach. I knew that about Jabari, it's great to hear it about Gotsis.

Not sure if any fans have been paying attention to coaches talk in the history of sports...but Coaches usually like to talk about what they are unhappy about more than what they are happy about.

"They let the other side drive the ball down the field time after time to the 30 yard line...what offense wouldn't score?!...But our passing stunk it up!"

Coach speak: "Our defense stunk it up. Our passing is atrocious"

Reality: Our offense drove at will for the first 70 yards, our defense buckled up once the ball hit the 30 yard line and kept our offense to field goals. Passing stunk it up...but who was throwing the ball, who was catching, and what was the situation?

It's never as good or as bad as it seems.
