I thought that the OL situation was going to keep us from knowing if the

new coordinator hires were enough to right the ship... I didn't think we'd be able to win more than games with the state of the OL, and was afraid that Pry wouldn't survive for us to see. I was kinda reserved to wait another year, but I just don't think that is defensible after the 2nd half Sat night. Siefkis couldn't make adjustments out of the stupid bear that was clearly not going to work against their alignments. Monty couldn't adjust to the OL being in shambles, even though he had to know that was bound to happen. Pry waived the white flag (even tho he didn't realize it at the time) by not going for it on 4th and inches in the 3rd when the D needed time to regroup, and we couldn't afford to let them possess the ball for a long field again - showed zero awareness for the situation. Should have learned from the 1st half last year: possessions are worth as much as points against them. Letting them score quicker off of a short field if we weren't successful was a better option than letting them run so much clock and score anyway, which is clearly what was going to happen based on their opening drive, especially making the D get right back out after the O's 3 & out... not giving Siefkis a chance to figure his sh*t out (not that he could, anyway, idk). All to say, doesn't look good that the hires are the fix and all will be good after another year once we get the OL in shape...
