We start out slow


Oct 7, 2018, 9:02 AM

and sloppy virtually every game, regardless of the opponent. Don't be mislead, Wake is really down right now, no defensive coordinator, and a whole lot more. Great to have a big win, but this win if we get the big head will be a problem.

Our offense and defense are uncharacteristically slow, disconnected, just not all there in the 1st quarter. This has been the case in seasons past.

Maybe we should start Chase a series or two and bring in TL... I can't figure this out. TL is a great very young QB, but early on he takes to size up the play as it unfolds, he miss judges the speed of the defense, and has been off on his first few passes with the exception of one play this season. Also running plays are slow to unfold and hand offs are clumsy. I know it can take a series or two to figure out the opponents defense and offensive game scheme. BV generally needs a series to figure out the opponent and then gets dialed in.

I just don't get why we are so clumsy and slow to start every game. It's like we've never practiced.

Coaches, dial-in on this.

Go Tigers.

No, he is correct. We are slow to start. I don't know if we have scored a TD on any of our"opening" drives this year. Seems we need a series, or two before we do.

Slow to start, fast to finish. I’ll take it.

You should let Dabo know about this

Apparently he’s clueless, because he said it was a Statement game and he feels like the team is really coming together.

Offense did start slow, but it is strange to say the defense started "slow and disconnected".

Wake's first four drives went for:
1.) minus 5 yards
2.) minus 19 yards
3.) minus 2 yards
4.) 3 yards

Honestly, Wakes next 15 drives weren't much better!

I correct my first statement, for Wake our D was dialed in to start but that has not been the case for other games. Passing teams have been our challenge and NC State has a great QB. Our D needs to come out crashing in to disrupt their QB.

TL stands in the pocket too long and at this level you can’t do this
Lucky thing is he can make all the throws and will get better every week.
All I’m saying is step up in the pocket or throw the ball away.
He will be dialed in come NCST game
