If I had told you before the game that Brennan would have 345 yards, 3 TDs, and we would end the game in their red zone would you have taken it? That’s more yards than Burrow had last year against the same team and one fewer TD. No one thinks he’s the second coming. But he did produce today.
That’s why we actually watch the game. Brennan is closer to JJ the Bureaux. He is the type of QB that needs a strong run game. I have come to believe you need a certain level of swag to run 5 wide and be confident to win the game like that.
And he did all that with crappy Oline play. Y’all remember when all but four Oline players were in quarantine two weeks ago? Losing out on all that practice was quite evident today.
Blonde Jesus has been in system for 3yrs. Minger did him no favors with 5 sec drop back nor did the line with their 2 sec blocking. At end end of the day its all on coaching and in game adjustments.
Today they looked so bad the corrections will have to be obvious . It’s like leaving for work seeing you have a flat tire , being at work finding out you’re fired and coming home from work and finding your wife banging the plumber. Tomorrow HAS to better, right? God help us if Pellini stays confused as to how to prevent offenses from gaining over 600 yards .
