About the same. I knew there would be some growing pains with the changes in personnel. If anything, I think we saw glimpses of how we can still be ruthlessly efficient and deliver the ball all over the field. I’d like to see more pressure from our DL and Beck get into a rhythm earlier though.

Also, need Edwards at 100% and a solid RB2 to develop. Definitely need Bullard back as well,

I get this and it is a valid point. That said, we did not get to the QB much early last season. When absolutely necessary and the players understand their role....and the coaches feel confident of this we typically start rushing the passer more and getting to the QB more often. I think as the season moves along we will see this improve exponentially.

The only game I'm concerned about is @ Auburn in two weeks. We definitely need Ladd back to make our passing game stronger and Bullard to spark our defense.

I thought we got some good pressure yesterday. Rattler is just fast and slippery. Still put him on the ground a few times but other times we got back there and he escaped.
