We must really be scarred from Croom's offense

I haven't seen anyone mention being the least bit concerned that our D got absolutely shredded yesterday. From the sound of it, they were giving up big plays (30+ yards) left and right. Does anyone know if our D was made to play very basic? I hope that was the case.

to get a grasp of the whole situation with the side of a ball. Because one side is going to suck and one side will do well. And last weekend - the D ripped the O a new one.

I don't know what to make of any scrimmage to be honest with you. I would only get worried about the offense if they were putting up Henig like numbers in scrimmages, which the QB's aren't.

It seems to me that we can figure out what are strengths and weaknesses are going to be based on a depth chart more than anything done in a scrimmage.

our LBs were slow coving the flats. Our QBs did a great job of checking the ball down, and at times, our LBs weren't there to make the play.

That and we don't have a true pass rushers on the DL.

Spring camp is usually used by coaches to hammer drills into players. The players hardly see the plays until well into fall practice. So both sides of the ball are running boilerplate plays only designed for practice, not really to take advantage of anyone. Also consider that a lot of players on the field barely see playing time in the regular season. Scrimmages, especially in the spring, are pretty pointless to get an idea of how the team is really going to operate on game day, but are great practice for the team because the coaches get to put players in positions they normally don't see.

They were not allowed to rush the passer. So of course the Defense will look like they were slow to react.
