1. Dawson bouncing off Hogan like a pin ball.
2. Felix getting faked out of his jock on that option.
3. How bad we got thrown around on both sides of the line (although the D-Line was the worst).
4. How out of position our LB's are on almost every play. Smith might be good one day but he is really struggling right now.
5. How bad our LB's are in coverage, and just how much physicality they lack at the LOS.
I really thought we would beat Stanford, not just because of our performances to date, but because Furd has looked so bad the first couple games. I'm not gonna drink that Koo-Aide again.
We need to start rushing 4 big bodies and scarp that rush end/elephant bullshit because it ain't working outside of a few bright Porter Gustin moments. I'd Rotate Green/Jefferson/Daniel a lot more to fill that fourth roll.
Guys that need to play a lot more:
Gustin, Masina, R. Green, N. Jefferson.
Guys that need to play a lot less:
Felix, Dawson, Townsend,
Not sure what to do about that OL but Tuerk is not playing well at center. Neither is Wheeler at LT or even Toa for that matter. I see Toa get pushed around a lot. I think we are really missing Drevno right now.
Hope things improve but man, I'm not liking our chances right now.
