I'm expecting our OL/QB to improve in week 2. Kinda hard not to......they didn't sustain a single long, time consuming drive the entire game.
OL had plenty issues. BUT.....At same time.....QB has to know where his hot route is. My biggest concern after watching game again is the large # of inaccurate SHORT passes. Ben was late in finding his hot route and when he did the passes were mostly terrible. At least 5 should have been caught......at same time most of these incomplete passes were within 5-10 yards from the line of scrimmage.
Rewatching now if there is a faster D in the belt this year I’d like to know who it is. I’m gonna say there isn’t.

My only concern right now would be how we would hold up against the better, more physical teams with a physical OL in the running game. We are quick but we are a little light when you look at our DL many of our guys who get big minutes are in the 265 pound range.
