But I realize for some that giving Shaw credit for anything but being lucky enough to follow JH is not gonna happen.

I'll give Shaw credit for improving from last season to having a mediocre, middle-of-the-road team. He kept the seat from getting hot, not only for himself but (unfortunately) for his staff. The roster is still too thin, we still have too many injuries (for the third year in a row which makes it no longer a blip but a pattern), and on offense we still get into too many 3rd & 5+ situations.

Given the fact that we now have a three game winning streak (on the road) which includes a victory over a previously undefeated team which will playing for the CC, I give us credit for being somewhat better than mediocre.

Did you watch the game? Specifically the defense? Unfortunately I think winflop is right on the money.

No one is saying this is a great football team.  Or anything close. But the screams of 0-5 were loud.  So one would think winning three straight on the road would be worthy of some praise for the staff.  Speaking of which, the last drive was terrific until the false start.  Burned clock.  Mixed it up with run and pass.  Were in position to essentially run clock out and score. Or come very close.

Mills had a terrific half.  He’s getting better and better. The line played well.  And while the defense is not strong, they made a couple big plays.

3 nice wins.
