Tony White had his guys ready to go

single high safety

man coverage

all season long

I said this would be the plan and am glad to see Coach White agrees

need to press more on the outside

there are zero quarterbacks on our schedule worthy of an ounce of respect. make them all prove they can beat us.
 
They kept saying what great scoring defense Minnesota had the last few years. It’s good, but the BiG WeSt is very offensively challenged and most of these games are time-consuming grind fests so I think that skews their numbers quite a bit
 
I liked what I saw, especially considering it was the first game and the fact that we still need to upgrade our personnel.

Now, the offensive side concerns me in several areas…..

The will (should) win a lot of games holding teams under 300 yards and under 14 points,
 
I haven't watched the tape yet, but it didn't seem White dialed up much in the way of unexpected guys blitzing during obvious passing situations. During the Minn/Syracuse bowl game seemed guys were blitzing from all over. Except maybe we tried that early and got burned.
 
Went on the road and gave us a chance. Defense played well without Henrich and Robinson getting kicked out.
Yes I thought the Defense was good. But I also was not surprised that the Defense would be ahead of the Offense in the early season. That's normal when you're installing new systems with new coaches and new players.
 
Gunnerson and Ty were the best looking athletes on the field. The D looked fast, tackled well and played a lot of guys. It’s not hard to see a bright future on that side of the ball. The offense on the other hand…..

I'm not as high on Ty. I thought Omar Brown looked much improved. Would like to see it from another angle but if Gifford makes that pick, game over.

I was referring more to how he looked. Huge, ripped and athletic. It seemed like he played well, but would have to watch it again to be sure and I don’t think I want to that to myself.

Got burned late where we middle blitzed and they had a perfect call with a delayed pass to their TE.
