I am sorry for your loss woundedknees. It’s been about 14 years since we lost our dog. So many great memories combined with the sadness of losing him even now. You and your family are in thoughts.

Not very many 3 PT attempts are coming from good execution a set play. There were a lot of 3’s that were bad misses as well. The lack of offensive rhythm and cohesion is a major concern right now. Last year’s team seemed to play well together early but fell into a prolonged slump mid-season. Hopefully we’ll see a more connected team in early January this season.

Our lack of a disruptive pass rush is a huge concern. Additionally, possibly because of the former, is the blown coverage when a pass play stretches out. We were hurt several times on passes to a wide open receiver. Assuming we make it into the playoffs we’re going to struggle against quality passing teams unless we can get to the qb and maintain assignments with our db’s. Though Moore wasn’t real sharp with passing today his pass to Benson was other-worldly. Props to the entire team for roughing out another close game!

Nice write up from The Athletic (did not require a subscription to read) about Gabriel's journey to the NFL and what drives him to be great. Brown's Dillon Gabriel doesn't care what you think. His focus is on proving himself. (I followed the tutorial for posting articles, but it did not create an article box)
