My recipe is on the first pass on the first drive to roll out JG to give him sometime to throw the ball downfield. It seems like for the past two years, defenses has gotten to him either on a sack or a turnover on that first drive. Florida did it, Bama shut us down, and I even think Georgia got to us. Missouri laid into us on that first drive as well. If you remember, West Virginia set the tone on the very first play. So, I say let’s roll him out a lot, and let’s take more shots down the field in 2019 with Callaway, Jennings, and the wide receiver crew.

If you roll him out he may collide with the blitzing corner. A lot of teams blitzed us on the first series last year because it worked

The statue of liberty with Callaoway taking it around the end for an exciting 2 yard loss.

Recipe....Barb's Chip Dip!

I hope it's better than the "LOOK OUT!" block on the 1st play last season.

Nope... want him to take his drop in the pocket... and when the rush arrives, see if he has learned to step up and throw. If not, pull his azz.

Funny how you would yank JG after the first play but completely ignore poor line play that allowed him to get flushed from the pocket

Hopefully the new OC will decide to either be a good rushing team or a good passing team the focus on making the OL competent at one or the other first then working on the other after. I remember Chaney or Cut or both doing that pretty intentionally. It is better to be really good at one thing and bad at another than to be mediocre (or worse) at everything.
