First Quarter Report Card

[Beemnseven]

Overall, I agree with your assessments. Though Special teams deserves more like a D grade in my opinion. At times, it's like they can't even set up a 10 yard return. I'm not asking for TD returns every time they take the field, but it sure would be nice to get a long return or two during the game to help out the offense. While they've kept opposing returners out of the endzone, there have been a few that have come close. You just know somebody's going to break one on this unit. The only surprise is that it hasn't happened yet.

And the defensive line should get more of a C grade, I think. Absolutely ZERO pressure on the quarterback, and a slight downgrade in run stopping make this unit disappointing from last year's standards. How much longer this team and it's personnel department will ignore drafting a D-tackle or end will prove pivotal at some point, and it's going to come back and bite us.

What about the offensive line Matty?
