This offense is going to score lots of points. Only question is how good will pass protection be against the better defenses we play. Defensively there’s lots of questions. How good will our front 4 be? Will we get a pre injury Joe Dillon. Pairing him with Manac, who imo is one of the belts best defensive player, is a scary thought. Will any true freshman emerge and Be difference makers? Wilkerson comes to mind.

We don't have a pass protection problem; we have a decision making problem at QB if Lewis is in the game.

Our tackles have struggled in recent years with the outside pass rush. That's not decision making.

Hey, don’t knock him off his anti Lewis narrative.

We gave up 34 and 32 sacks in 2016 and 2017 and Lewis was not the starter nor was he a primary part of our offense. Our lumbering linemen were getting beat by smaller, quicker defensive players and really struggled against defenses like App State.

I know it man. We’ve struggled at pass protection for a few years now which is why I referenced it in my original post.

There are 3 reasons for that QB taking to long, WR not getting separation and OL getting Mauled sometimes.. Our Wr's need to learn more than the go route going forward and QB needs to learn to give up on a dead play. For OL we just need better players which I think we are getting ...

I know this is very early predictions, but not having Moncrief in the two deep at LB seems odd to me.

I hope I am wrong but I just don't see Levi being an every down QB that can consistently sustain a long drive down the field, at this level.

I think that sentiment is shared by most. I dont think Levi is The Qb to lead us every down given his body of work. I like most am hoping someone else takes over.

.......STUNTS that are well conceived, well run, and done by talented guys!

Outside of an all out blitz body on a body especially in pass protection and communication is key

His body of work from last year or his true freshman season? Two totally different bodies of work. Perhaps it’s the body of work of all of our other QBs that has you feeling they’d be better? Not sure I get your logic. If Levi improves only a little from last year he will be more than capable of leading this team.
