[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 172976, member: 2299"] The biggest problem at QB in 2013 was Lee clearly lost confidence as the year went along. He became tentative both in making reads and making runs, and looked like he always expected to be taking a shot from someone who should be blocked. That was a result of the poor OL play we had which led to him taking hard shots from guys that should have been blocked. And when that happened, it just compounded the issue because even when the blocks were made, the hesitation would cost us. Ideally you want your QB to not be affected like that, but Lee wasn't the first, and won't be the last, young starter to get rattled as a result of poor OL play. Going back to losing confidence, it was also a big mistake for the coaching staff to convey the message that the Duke game was won the wrong way. Nothing to be gained by that. Last year was the polar opposite. The OL, and the emergence of Days, really took pressure off Thomas, and allowed him to ease off trying to make the spectacular plays, and just let the offense work. The lesson from the last two years is the importance of a healthy OL, and the importance of good OL play for introducing a young QB. [/QUOTE]
