One game doesn’t make a trend, but certainly worrying. The lack of any kind of recruiting under Chip is gonna hurt for a while. It all starts with the O line, and I fear we’re a long way from fixing that issue. Garbers is hard to understand - looked like a deer in the headlights in the first half, not a seasoned leader. Play calling certainly played a role here - need to get the ball out quickly with this line. Defense was a positive surprise. In the first half I was worried we were going to revert to the ‘cushion, bend, and break’ defences that got eaten up by passing attacks, but credit to them, they played pretty tight and especially stopped the YAC. 4 wins seems about right at this point, but a sense of the program putting the pieces together and moving in the right direction is probably more important that W-L at this point.
