mubobby told us much of what we saw today

BTW, reedus - do you see my avatar again? Apparently the site no longer accepts images from the hosting site I used. Had to use another one and update.

Damn, nice legs.Where is the rest?

Throwing a catchable ball in a receivers catch radius does wonders....

I was very pleased with the receivers today. Amazing the difference a well-thrown ball can make to their productivity. The entire team also played with a whole different level of focus and intensity. By far our best game this season. I see the team's identity finally taking shape - the future is bright!

I thought it was very smart of Pinkel to keep it simple and conservative. That lets Lock get comfortable. We didn't need anything more than what we did. And we didn't give anything away. Teams will watch film on Lock and see a poised, confident guy with a quick release, accurate placement and pretty throws. He's not much of a dual threat, but he doesn't need to be. He makes good decisions. He's young, but no real weaknesses that can't be coached.

Florida will be a huge test for him. And unless they have a let down after today's victory, I doubt we win that game. But Lock is good and going to be great before he's done here.

The obvious...best game of the year to-date.

I've been very down on the OL thru the first 4 games. Saturday they started moving and finishing blocks. They played football. And for that I am thankful.

A healthy Boehm, healthyish Hansbrough, efficient QB, McNulty at guard all helped the run game.

Also Ish is starting to be much more decisive on his runs.

I re watched the game. Hans is far from healthy. Came up limping nearly every play. I think he knows the team needs him and is gutting it out. My guess is if we had a viable alternative he would have sat out SC as well. Hopefully Witter continues to improve.

Also I don't believe our WR's magically learned to run routes. Mauk either couldn't see them or couldn't throw it to them.

Locks not a true dual threat but he did extend some drives with his feet. Still has to be respected

Up until today many fans,(not here on this board)said the offense sucked and we should just deal with it the rest of the year. They said the line couldn't block, the backs were gimp, the receivers couldn't get open or catch, and the coaches couldn't call plays right.

Yet, every "could not" turned into a "could" yesterday for some reason.

actually yes, many here on this board said exactly that, after the UK game last week, they were ready to run Ricker out of town w/ pitch forks, declared the Oline a disaster area, the receivers all incompetent all thumbs boobs, and the RB's all gimps(that last part is at least close).

and last sunday I told them all they were wrong, after I thought about the UK game all night, I realized it wasn't the case, the problem went deeper and we aren't just a couple of NFLers and a coach removed from the same Oline that won the East the last 2 years. The young receivers that all looked like dynamite on film aren't all idiots and the RBs, well, let's just say we'll figure that out when we get to it.

I told them this problem has been going on for a long time and we saw a lot of the same issues last year when our D basically carried us down the stretch. You can't have a hole in your offense the size of a truck because your QB can't work the middle of the field and have to throw out over half the play book. You can't have the entire offense frustrated because all the work they do to run the plays the coaches designed goes for naught 2 seconds after the snap and the QB starts dancing like a dervish, reverse spinning, running away from his receivers and looking to throw yet another hail mary.

Of course they didn't listen until some guy named mubobbee or something said the same thing, now he gets all the credit.. that's ok I don't really care about credit but maybe they'll realize they should listen to me now.
