Thank god for the BYE Week. We have a legit chance at 5-2

If you look at it from an NFL angle and consider the previous games pre-season, I like our chances heading into the season. Our "season outlook" is better than predicted.

The MWC is softer than expected and I think we are better. We have some issues to iron out and I think we will.

3-4 more wins isn't fantasy land by any means. Should be fun assuming Bohl and company actually progress. This is where we will see what kind of coaching staff we have. With steady improvement, we will be bowl eligible.

Not that I like DC but if we have DC we have Brett Smith he left because DC was fired mainly. So I'm going to say we could easily be 3-2 just like we are but I think we sure as shit would have scored more than 10 TD's in 5 games.

We have given up 16 sacks on the season Brett would not have been sacked 16 times. So while our defense is miles above what it was last few years our offense is just bad. We are going to struggle beating everyone we beat there are no freebies on this schedule.

I truly believe that if things stayed the way they were, Brett coulda had a field day against Oregon and we woulda given them even more than we did. In the 3 games I've been too, including Oregon, that was the best we looked all year. I just don't understand why we continue to look flat game in and game out, it's football, shouldn't you get it by now?? Or is the speed of the game just too much for many to handle???

I actually agree and have said numerous times that I have nothing against Colby personally and don't mean to attack him as an athlete cause let's face it I'm typing on a keyboard and he is actually playing but he looks like a freshman every game.

My list of complaints, is too long. But let's just list the important ones of being a good QB.

You have to make the defense respect you, He doesn't do that in the least bit. Not once have you see an opposing team defender follow him after a hand off. Does he pump fake? almost 100% sure never seen one. He locks his eyes on one receiver and that is all she wrote.

Those 3 things make him useless in terms of gaining respect from the defense. Even if he just looked off 1 receiver it would change what a secondary has to do. His hand offs actually anger me, He just holds the ball out there for like 3 seconds hell by the time a back takes it they know it's not a fake.

If he was less robotic on his hand offs, Move the ball position it different turn to face the back ANYTHING that would make the defense second guess where the ball is going they wouldn't be able to stack the box with 8.
 
This stat proves my theory that good staffs know how to utilize a bye week. Craig Bohl was 12-1 after a bye week at NDSU.
