Really really bad day for Lester

In his defense, the OLine is garbage and Brown can't sit in the pocket.

All game long.

We're not using any misdirection or deception. We're generally trying to block 5-8 defenders with 5 blockers. Running on first down most of the time doesn't help.

So you let Hank stay out there to further erode his confidence with more turnovers and 3 & outs??

Brown's follow through is hitting his linemen's shoulder pads..... OSU's qb has a clean pocket with about 3 yards of cushion.

Can't even stop the RBs a yard/yard-and-a-half shy without letting them fall forward to move the sticks.

OL/DL so weak.
