I hasten to add to my previous observation that: (i) this sort of lack of coordination so early in the season is commonplace, especially when Johnson spent last year playing center; (ii) I thought Johnson looked pretty darn good out there from an all-in perspective; and (iii) I was THRILLED to...
I mentioned this in another thread, but from a topical perspective my observation should be here.
I noticed an OL screw up on a particular play in which Lindsey was sacked.
The DE took a hard inside rush to "draw" Roy inside with him, and meanwhile the DT made initial contact with Johnson...
Regarding the O-line...
On the sack of Lindsey, the DT stunted around the end and the DE took a hard inside rush. Roy responded correctly: (i) punched the DE inside to Johnson; and (ii) dove out to meet the stunting DT. But Johnson messed up: he stayed engaged with the DT, when he should have...
One more thing...

This year might be special, but it's hard to put together so many new pieces in a single year. ...But Drake, Javon, and...
I basically agree.
To add "nuance," I'll chime in to say that Daniel Jackson *does* get separation -- just not sustained separation.
He gets separation from getting efficiently into and out of cuts. But then the separation is closed, because he is slow when running in a straight line...
I know one of these "knuckleheads" -- and I can assure you he is a HUGE Gophers football fan.
And Vikings fan.
...Don't know anything about the other three.
The reality is this:
Frost struck gold with McKenzie Milton at UCF. Before he was injured, he was -- hands down -- the best dual threat QB in America.
And, with scheme alone, a true top dual threat QB cannot be stopped. I saw Milton play in person many times. He was special and could not be...
Evil prowls the world, phil.
We've all suffered for it.
Much of what was behind and connected to the plandemic is known... and if you know where to look, is being said. Hit me up if you want some info.
