I think it's fair to have a conversation that we should've had offense play a lot more in preseason. Coaches certainly don't have them ready procedurally that's for sure

Blue Since ‘62

I told myself that I'd stay positive for the entire game. It ain't easy.

On pace again to have less than 150 yards passing, which has been the norm over the last 4 years.  Still, it's only the 1st qtr and plenty of time to improve the passing game.  If they cant play well against the Sam D led Min, who will they play well against?

Guess you didn't notice that a rusher was in Jones face forcing him to throw the ball early

Our D doesn't exactly have blazing speed on the outside. Have gotten flat out outrun around the corner multiple times already in key situations (one for a TD).

Echos of last season, we seem to be coming in undercooked again.

Too many penalties killing the flow of this game!!!

He can still be accurate even if he's rushed.

I'm in full agreement. Couldn't agree more. It seems we'd rather not taking a small risk of our offensive guys getting hurt than run a very high risk that they'll be completely out of sync and off their games in at least week one if not beyond that.

Our hyped up edge rush is doing nothing so far. Darnold can wear a tuxedo back there.

We give Darnold time in the pocket Jefferson will kill us over the top.

D backs are a huge problem for this team

Must be Thanksgiving as Darnold is carving up the Giants' defense.

There was concern on our secondary before the season, and that is definitely warranted.  Not great.  :scared:

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
