the biggest question I have about last night is:<div>
</div><div>What do we work on relative to dealing with blitzes? #11 (their best defensive player), came untouched 3 times at full speed, and caused at least 2 of the interceptions (if not 3 of them). I don't ever see our backs picking up blitzing linebackers - is this a read thing or part of the spread that you don't do it and dump it off before you get creamed if the blitz comes? is the qb supposed to call the blocking assignments? - if the backs aren't blocking, they should be open, because the linebacker is not there to cover. </div><div>
</div><div>I think that if we give Russell time in the pocket, he will complete passes - if we don't have a protection package with backs, we need to put some in for Russell.</div>
