Thoughts from the weekend......
- QB: "...I think Demond simply has to improve his throwing, decision making and getting the ball out faster from the pocket..." We ALL got spoiled by Michael Penix :-) He did those things better than...

Jedd's buyout versus our NIL issue
- Pick/market: It's year 3 and we went 9-4 last year, and look like a total rebuild with a massively underachieving QB we paid 4.5M to who looks the worst he has since he started here.
offense
Topic. Demond should run
- Coaching: Insane that at his presser Jedd said that he felt Demond shouldn’t run out of the pocket.

Rewatched Game Few Thoughts
- QB/OL: You've made a good observation about B1G officiating allowing some holding by the visitor's OL.
offense
Trey Cooley phenomenon
- RB: I do not believe that the expectation for Cooley was that he would compete to be the starter at RB.
offense
Trey Cooley phenomenon
- OL: Bonner has excellent speed and he can see the holes and make the cuts to get to them.
offense
Hopeless feelings
- Pick/market: What I can't understand is how many in the media drastically overestimated this team.
offense
The Sky Isn't Falling Yet
- QB: Not having a viable backup qb is all you need to know about the depth/quality of this team.
offense
- Intel: An important answer for UW, which cuts the lead in half thanks to Dezmen Roebuck's 16-yard TD on a receiver screen.
offense
- TE: The Terps earn their first 1st down of the game, but on the ensuing 3rd down, a miscommunication between Malik Washington and TE Dorian Fleming sees the ball drop in a sea of turf.

For those who followed USC before Pete Carroll
- Pick/market: I will also say point this out: USC's 2 most successful coaches McCay and Carroll: One created and revolutionized the I-Formation and the other's experience was almost exclusively on the defensive side of the...

Anyone notice
- Defense: Lynn turning out a mediocre defense while coaching for the softest HC in football history is nothing short of a miracle.
defense
Patterson
- DB: The fact Sermons wasn’t moved to FS months ago is borderline malpractice.
defense
Bowden / Power Structure
- LB: That best GM in the land did not see the weaknesses at LB or in the defensive backfield and go out and get older replacements.
defense
Max Browne breakdown.
- LB: This is alarming that it's week 5 and the starting defense doesn't know their assignments.
defense
The P is great at…
- LB: I’m not sure it it still the case that the athletic department operates on its own funds only.
defense
Something feels different
- LB: agree with everything you said, but this line is silly hyperbole: " I fully believe if USC does not run the table, Lincoln Riley is gone." If USC runs the table including @PSU and...

Riley Shouldn't Be Fired
- Pick/market: The way they approached the portal didn’t seem like this was a playoff “make or break year.” Needed linebackers and safeties but spent big to bring in the #1 hs class instead.
