Every time he gets the ball he has at least 6 yards of forward movement. If Mike is "Ford Tough", Kelly is a locomotive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the safties up close most of the night.I imagine the defensive scheme was to make Beck throw to give them a chance. Guess what? We don't have Mike and Trea this year. I'm sure they'll iron it out, but most of the deep passes were lofty jump ball throws to WIDE OPEN recievers. I'm sure they'll figure out what happened allowing recievers to get that open. while reviewing the tape they'll correct it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also saw T-Mac's numbers go down because of the move I think. He's still a beast, but hopefully Brouce will be back for Cuse or shortly after.The gripe that I have is holding on to the football. Taylor almost lost a big fumble on the first drive. Especially early in the game, we can't do that, it would have been a big momentum shift.Overall though, very happy with the outcome.

Very little of those deep throws were perfectly executed passes/plays. Not at all worried about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought to myself "here we go again" referencing the FIU game and early fumbles.Thankfully, that was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McClain has been arguably the most disruptive force along the DL this year, obviously Selvie is if teams weren't throwing everything including the kitchen sink at him, which is why McClain has been tearing up the single team.

I think the guys did a great job holding on to the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those long bombs-almost all were after way too much time in the pocketactually three were from extreme roll outs and were nearly broken plays. All three Buie tatooed Beck just as he released the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
