And my joke failed. Must have hit the upright.

This offense is unstoppable. It's unstoppable because of its built-in versatility. Tua is scanning the field at the speed of light and if all fails he is hitting the check down. If he is pushed in the pocket he will bleed out and then he is doubly dangerous with his ability to hit guys on the scramble. And we haven't even seen Tua tucking the ball and running because he simply hasn't had to do it. Tua is faster out of the box than Jalen. He's a quick processor, with a quick release.
Once the offensive line figures out the running game and we can run between the tackles with power, particularly in the red zone, it's game, set, match.
Our defense doesn't have to be 2017 good. They need to harass the QB and get some stops and play tough in the red zone.

He was
#5 in 10+
#2 in 20+
#4 in 30+
#1 in 40+ & 50+
tied for #1 in 60+
tied for #2 in 70+

The offense is designed that way for the most part but teams are playing off coverage to keep everything in front a lot too

Bad angles and missed tackles. Clean these up, and the defense will improve tremendously.

No need to throw it deep when the WRs are killing DBs in YACs

4) Tua on deeper throws - I think despite all the amazing stats this has been one area where Tua has struggled this year. He's not been great at hitting receivers further than 10 yards down field. On one hand I like that he's not taking as many chances when there's no need, but I also realize that when we are trying it, we aren't hitting at a great clip. I know he's capable, so I think there's a good chance this gets better. I also know that Sark's West Coast influence is probably a factor here.
I agree, but this is a strange thing this season. Last season I would have said that was his trademark.

Our running game makes me miss Mark Ingram.

He's been fine on intermediate balls, but the long balls have not been as accurate. But the % is misleading because he has not thrown many.
IMO, you overstate his accuracy issues, especially regarding the intermediate passes where he has been fine enough.

Najee is avergaing 6.1 ypc, and is explosive in the passing game. Not sure what I am missing on this. And while Brian Robinson isn't as dynamic, he is good at what he does, and is trending up in his play.
Our running game is good. Not quite sure why people think differently.

Per most of the explosive/success rate/YAC stats Najee has been the best running back in the SEC so far this season.

But with Mark Ingram, you also get a side order of Greg McElroy. Without G-Mac refusing to let the ball go there is no Mark Ingram. Think about that one?
