That was the type of execution and effort that we saw for 5 years of mediocre play until last year when KFs back was against the wall.

The positives were OLine run blocking, WR blocking, RBs especially Wadley, CJ was solid and the kicking game (Colluzi especially kick offs and punts).

The defense was very bad. Absolutely zero pass rush except A Nelson. Bower is not good and Synder is very suspect and needs to learn how to wrap instead of making the fancy hit. Mabin got picked on but again no pass rush either. Hugely disappointed and we lose next week with that type of effort and execution.

Don't try to make excuses for Mabin. He sucked all on his own today. It wasn't cause of some other unit.

Worth noting that we didn't see any blitzes nor did we see the raider/radar package. While Mabin/defensive line were unimpressive, we didn't show a whole lot either. I also thought the offensive play calling was a bit atypical.
