00:05Offensively, we're still a work in progress.
00:09Some things we're doing well, some things we're not.
00:11I think the inconsistent nature with which we're playing,
00:17we're shooting ourselves in the foot quite a bit.
00:19And when I look at where we were through the first four weeks, a lot of penalties.
00:25I want to say we were top five on offense there through four weeks.
00:29And so we're playing behind the sticks.
00:31And you can certainly feel that as I was calling it.
00:34I give the guys a lot of credit.
00:36I did feel like we were pretty good at getting back on track as much as we could.
00:40But it's just not sustainable when you're playing football that way.
00:44I think drop back pass game right now, which, once again,
00:47that kind of goes in hand in hand with the get back on track mentality.
00:52He's doing a good job there of finding guys.
00:54And our guys are getting open.
00:56They're being detailed with their route running.
00:57But, you know, like I said, the running game's struggling.
01:01The play-action game's not quite where it needs to be off of that.
01:04That's typically where you get a lot of explosives or chunk plays.
01:09Our screen game leaves a lot to be desired.
01:12It's both sides of the ball.
01:13We've got to do a better job blocking.
01:14We've got to get our pad level lower on offense.
01:16And then defensively, we have to violently shed those blockers.
01:20Our guys are going to know what that looks like.
01:22They've done it at times.
01:24We just haven't done it at all three levels consistently enough.
01:27All right.
