this Michigan team is so frustrating to watch. I realize I'm complaining about them after they've beaten everybody they've played by about 4 TD's- but damn- they are so disjointed on offense and can't get clicking for 60 minutes- it's infuriating to watch.
JJ had a nice bounce back game- threw some great balls and didn't do any of that hero bullshit or force things into double coverage. They flat out NEED to get his legs more involved in the run game. It takes their run game to another level when they do. Just run him 4-5 times a game on designed runs and read option- just the threat of him doing that throws a defense off. The OL continues to be a work in progress bc they continue to bash their head against the wall and start Myles Hinton at RT- a guy who flat out stinks at football. The OL AGAIN looked much better for the second week in a row once Hinton hit the bench and LaDarius Henderson played at LT and Karsen Barnhart kicked back to RT- where he's played at a high level the last 2 years.
The defense is really good. They were without two of their very best players in DT Mason Graham and FS Rod Moore this week, and still were way too much for Rutgers to handle outside of a busted coverage play to start the game. The only weakness on that defense I am seeing is CB2. Josh Wallace is not it. And much like they are doing with Myles Hinton at RT these coaches continue to bash their head against the wall and refuse to give someone else a real shot to take the job. They need to start one of the frosh CB's in DJ Waller, Amorion Walker, Jyaire Hill, Cam Calhoun, or JaDen McBurrows and just see what they have. Enough with the Josh Wallace experiment. Ditto for Myles Hinton.
