Ward looks better since the change, dike and helm are getting reps, the right side of the OL including cushenberry is pitiful so hardly anything can be sustained on offense. Still the difference is noticeable even if it's not directly leading to more points per game.

There are certainly things to be happy about. Watching the rookies develop has been a joy thought I will say I'm a bit worried about Ward. I don't really see him learning lessons game to game. He's still forcing things and trying to almost impose his will on the game. I can't say for sure that there is an area I can say he has definitively improved on compared to his college tape. That said, I haven't watched any real tape on him so I don't know but that's just the sense I get.

McCoy just phoned it in. No wonder Ayomanor slowed up on the route.

 

Team traded away the most vocal and aggressive player on defense (besides Simmons). Then they shipped a WR vet. I feel bad for the rookies. What an emotional whiplash to catch your dream and end up here

When ward has time he throws guys open and processes the field. Hes clearly gotten better over the last few games. He still needs to learn NFL defenders are way faster than college defenders in the pac10 and acc. He gets himself in trouble thinking he can outrun 1 star recruits. That along with the turnovers are his biggest issues which are normal ones for most rookie QBs.

Ward wasn't under constant assault today like he has been in other games this year.

 

Really? Looked bad in tje 1st half and there were numerous highlights from the 2nd half showing him having to reset or scramble right away. I didnt watch the 2nd half so cant comment first hand.

There has absolutely been worse OL protection games this season wasn't until 1 minute to go in the 3rd QTR they gave up the 2nd sack of the game. Also Ward had only been hit 5 times a couple of minutes into the 4th QTR.
