One scrimmage is too early to write off Peterman.
Maybe your thoughts are why you are a bench warmer :)

Completely agree that it is unfair to judge Peterman's ability by his first ever scrimmage. He could look good in the next one. But today, he had 3 carries for minus 13, and completed one pass and had an interception. He has a long way to go, but I trust those who say he is good.

I chose "Benchwarmer" as my nom de plume because it fit so well. :good!:

It was just one scrimmage, but the running game is surely much improved. Last year UT didn't average 3 yds/carry against Montana & MTSU, IIRC. Today they racked up 302 yds on the ground & averaged 7 yds/carry.

I think the ability to run the ball will solve a lot of our ills from last year on both sides of the ball.

1. Fewer three and outs.
2. More 3rd and short plays.
3. We'll get past the 50 yard line more, which means if we do have to punt, we can make them go the length of the field.
4. If our offense can keep moving the chains, we can start to wear down their defense. We didn't wear down many defenses last year.
5. If our offense can keep moving the chains, our defense can rest more and be fresher in the second half.
6. Takes some of the pressure off of Bray and the passing game.
7. Makes the fans happier.
