Besides a win...

[Minnesota_husker]

3 things I want to see:

1) an offense that shows either flash or ability to make the other team look lost. The offense looked vanilla or unable to adapt in past years.

2) True pressure on the QB. I want to see the QB running scared

3) Special Teams that doesnt make me cry. I dont need you to run amazing fake punt plays but for the love of god, dont let the punter run for 20 yards or not have any blocking on kick returns.

The swing pass is here to stay. You'll see it from pretty much every team, every Saturday and Sunday. 

It gets tiresome and even maddening when poorly executed, but save your wish list for something that's likely to happen.

any play is a home run if the right reciever is hit, the right hole is run through with the correct blocking or the correct play executed against a vulnerable defense. These flare passes are essentially long hand offs for us and never seem to amount to much....pretty much a wasted play. 

I don't care what plays we run if they are getting decent yardage and this ain't 1 of them for us. 

What about kneel downs?

What would you like to see during the game Saturday?

 

[JJ Husker]

1) Win the TO battle

2) Offense looks competent

3) Defense looks good

4) Special teams aren't terrible

Sorry, this one made me laugh…. but it’s perfect too.

 

[Hagg]

1.  Steady hand by AM

2.  Extra mile attitude by all

3. The feeling that we played a lesser team and it showed

 

[lo country]

Smart ST play ie Touchbacks on KO, fair catch on KO to get the free yards

Offensive game plan that is predicated on going vertical.  In both the passing game and running game

Limit penalties and TO's

I did like comments circulating on Frost's comments when handing out the Blackshirts.  "This thing was built on the Blackshirts and the Pipeline".  These guys show up, it makes all facets of the game improve......

 

[Toe]

1. Deep pass completions
   
2. QB pressure
   
3. Consistently scoring in the red zone

Reading some of these is bringing back some trauma from the last couple years.  If we have a bad snap again this game, my head may just explode.

 

[Touchdown Tommie]

1. Win the LOS (both sides of the ball)

2. Discipline

3. Multiple takeaways from the defense

We just installed it Tuesday afternoon!

[gossamorharpy]

1. Win time of possession by 10 mins

2. A non adrian martinez rusher gets over 100 yards

3. A logan smothers appearance not caused by an injury to 2AM

Can't recall the last time a game was put away by the 3rd... close games makes for good tv and all but i really would like a nice and relaxing start to my season

 

[Bledred]

5 or less penalties.

1 or less turnovers.

Throwing out to the flat 5 or less times. 

Running the ball when on the 5 yard-line or closer. 

Strategic use of TOs.

Seeing new plays on offense.

Preach brother.  More verticality less horizontal bs

I really think the bolded is going to go a long way in getting more wins across more games.  Having him be our leading rusher is a recipe for getting him injured and also losing.  We also do not have a Wan'dale to run if the RB's don't work out.
