Every team that we have left on the schedule will be a struggle and we'll have to fight to win each one of them. I'm really digging here, but was glad, shocked, surprised that we even made UGAly get off the field on a handful of 3rd downs. Even with turnovers. You know it's bad when that's all we have to hang our hat on.
Our D, it is all combinations of problems. Yes it's the player, yes it's the coaching, and yes it's the scheme.
I've said for a while now that it is players. Grantham leftovers, Diabetus and Co. hitting the portal. Not sure how much they'd have helped but it could not have hurt. We have not a push on the DL since Grennard and Zuniga left, that's a lack of recruiting. QB's had no time to throw, potentially masking our DB issues. I think many agree we need upgrades at personnel. We've also seen enough to know bad habits as well (Dean/Torrence).
Also, said that Toney is going to run his D and damned be the consequences. We know that PT is not going anywhere this year, but needs some change and improvement. Just think it is too much for them and needs to adjust and simplify. Hard to tell how much of the changes on UGAly, but we'll soon see with the rest of the schedule. But definitely something needs to be done and who all knows. I am about to the point that the entire defense needs to be rebuilt. Too much damaged goods. But it looks as if it is a total system failure.
Like I said, all the teams left for us will be able to move the ball, no question. Just try to improve on 3rd down, be opportunistic, and tackle.
