I done real good.
Played the 'we can't win' card all through the first half and look at the outcome.
Couldn't keep it up over the second half though. How you can manage to do it for a full 4 quarters is beyond me.
Yeah, I was one of the biggest bashers but he was right. You give Wilson a pocket and he'll tear it up.
Well, I think now that Bevell/Carroll (or maybe just Bevell) pulled their heads out and realized, "Hmmm, we are paying him $22M and he threw from the pocket in College. Should we try throwing from the pocket?" it's worked.
Course as I predicted VERY early in the season, it takes time for an O-Line to gel. Very few (if any) O-Lines come out with 3 new starters (Britt to LG) and dominate. Always takes playing time as a unit to get good. Look at what just the loss/replace of Chancellor does.
The OLine gelling has a lot to do with them cutting their losses at the weakest link (Nowak). Much like with Williams on Defense.
