Hey, LMJ, I\'m happy to talk football with you!
What were the questions fans had about your team going into the year? And how have they been answered thus far?
Here, I think the biggest worries pre-season were how would the offense look without Toby and our defensive secondary.
Speaking for myself, I think the run game has looked very good but not necessarily capable of ripping off big chunks of yardage on a consistent basis.
The passing game has that quick strike capability, to be sure. We\'ve been spoiled to think that every throw is going to be a laser from Luck, but he\'s definitely human enough to throw a few errant balls each game. His touch, mobility and smarts are what makes him greath, however. So far, I think our O-line has done a very good job protecting him as well.
As for our defense, I think it\'s outperformed almost every fan\'s expectations, with vastly improved play by our back four/five. Our front seven can definitely bring the heat on opposing quarterbacks, and our run defense is stout if not stifling.
