***OFFICIAL BUFFALO AT MINNESOTA 2025 SEASON OPENER, FLECK YEAR 9 IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

Drake is going to be great. I am so glad that we have some good special teams play today...I hope it continues. Drake has had plenty of time in the pocket so the OL pass protection looks solid. This is a young team. We lost a 6 players who made 53-man NFL rosters this week. There's going to be some screw ups. What I am not excited about is the drops...tons of them. This game would be very different if we had a couple WRs who didn't drop the ball.
 















The Gophers offense has had strategy and execution issues under Harbaugh. I agree the execution issues do not rest on Harbaugh but the strategy ones do. I think most of our redzone woes are due to poor strategy. I’d say on that drive, the 1st and 2nd down play calls (both runs against a stacked box) were strategy issues. The 3rd down out of bounds catch was on the players, but too often we shoot ourselves in the foot in the redzone due to poor playcalling/strategy.
I will say, this is the first game of the year and we played wayyyyyy more wide open in the passing game than I ever anticipated against a non con. Really fun to see Drake in person.

I agree, I didn’t expect them to let Drake sling it as much as they did in game 1. In general, I think Harbaugh is decent outside the redzone, but he is bad in the redzone.
 










This is my biggest beef with PJ...it used to be his awful special teams play, but he got rid of that coach...now it's running his RBs into the ground year after year to the point their bodies aren't ready for the NFL
To be fair, nowadays he’s already getting paid. But I agree I would like see hits taken off him when possible
