Thoughts?
 
It seemed to me the first half running plays were mostly right up the middle & poor execution on the blocking with the ISU stacking the box. 2nd half seemed to run more to the edges & better zone blocking. IDK

Seeing Cade running when play breaks down was very encouraging. Petras & Hill could never escape a rush. Great to see new receivers making plays. Lachey caught a few, but our other TE's also caught some nice balls. Last year defenses would key on our TE's. Not so much this year.
 
Very balanced play calling, but I think he called it pretty vanilla. The second half he opened it up a little bit, but I think the fact Wetjen wasn't used on any kind of jet sweep or counter means he hasn't truly delved into his playbook yet. Next week will be a much better test.
