On the bright side...

I guess Pitt won't have to worry too much about being able to afford Kade Bell and Eli Holstein next season.

Every one has tape on them now and the offense doesn't seem so special now.

Their agents could still ask for a raise, but there isn't much justification for it now.

The OL has been really bad so teams are getting pressure rushing only 4. You drop 7 and close down the passing windows and also limits his scrambling ability. If you onlu need to rush 4, there's very few QB's who can be successful throwing into 7 man coverage.

Offense is pretty sad to watch. Can’t stretch field, run, and line up correctly. Getting close to 2019 level of terrible.

Take some money from Narduzzi's salary if they need it to pay for assistants. Narduzzi isn't worth anything close to the money he's getting paid. He's a 6-6 or 7-5 coach, nothing more.

Aside from all those times he has been more, right? Which could still include this year.

I'm not seeing much creativity with the play calls though. Every now and then I see a creative play call, but the frequency seemed low.

Utilize your tablets to find holes in the defense and make adjustments. We were playing UVA not UGA. That wasn't some great team we played. They were mid just like us.

UVA and Pitt are pretty much equivalent. Teams that can win 8 games if lucky and in the perfect circumstances. But will revert to the norm at 5-7, 6-6, 7-5 90% of the time.

I think the whole offense was Eli scrambling or short passes to Reid, which he turned into big plays.

Did you see Georgia play yesterday? All that talent and they looked like hot 💩 on a plate.

Spend money on some tackles in NIL. That's a priority.
Holstein will be fine with protection.
RBs and WRs can be found from FCS on the cheap.
We are pretty good on D but should spend on edge rushers mainly.

A team that starts 7-0 should not revert back to the norm and win 7-8 games this year. Btw, I know you are referring to a team of a stretch of many seasons, but there are no excuses for this team to not win 9 regular season games. This is beginning to feel more like a Pirates season than anything else.

I agree. But I've seen this movie too many times to think it will end other than with a collapse. Our next 3 games are against legitimate opponents who are very capable of beating us convincingly.

Yes, there is no excuse for this team to not win 9 games after the start we had. So there will be no excuses at the end of the season when they don't. Whatever Narduzzi says will just be unacceptable excuses.

Agree. There is no way in hell with the schedule we have left that we win another game. These teams will expose our o-line for the trash that it is.

Unfortunately our nil pool is smaller than a lot of schools and those tackles aren’t going to come cheap
