I want to start a discussion about what seems “off” about the offense thus far through 5 games. There have been spectacular moments and drives, but a majority seems to be clunky and/or mostly opportunistic with regard to the defense getting turnovers.
Is Allar, dare I say, streaky? Or just a product of a first year starter learning the ropes. WRs aren’t helping either.
Singleton seems to be in a slump. I’ve seen a lot of discussion around his speed lacking vs last year, but he’s at the same weight roughly compared to last year’s official roster. Feels to me that he’s overthinking it rather than being instinctual.
I think Potts deserves more meaningful reps, guys is a bowling bowl out there. Hopefully Allen’s injury isn’t serious.
Injuries are piling up on the OL, but they still haven’t seem to put it together for long stretches. I actually think pass protection has been good, but the run game hovering at 3/carry is not a good sign.
WRs are average. KLS has been productive but will eventually be double teamed because there are no other threats. Need Wallace back 100%. The others are inconsistent and have trouble with the tough catch in traffic.
TEs have been solid so far IMO - I think they go quiet in the pass game because the need to block added pressure being brought on Allar. I don’t think we fully understood what a weapon Strange was in the blocking game. Johnson/Warren aren’t bad blockers but they struggle getting to the second level.
Yurcich - I don’t know what to think here. Is he being purposefully vanilla? They have no identity and the lack of big plays passing and running are cause for concern. Why don’t we get Allar on the run and out of the pocket? That’s where he’s at his best. 1st and 2nd down play calling has been inconsistent as well.
