I rewatched every play(after missing the game entirely live) and I seen some mistakes by the OL but for the most part JOK had time to throw. Aside from the one where he missed DPJ deep, it seemed he sat in the pocket more than normal with time, more time than any normal QB needs, and NOBODY came open. i seen plays where it felt like he could have eaten a small pizza back there waiting for something and it didn't happen. Now, I'm not sure if someone WAS open and he simply missed them because I couldn't see every receiver because of the TV coverage, but I think a lot of our problems shouldn't simply be laid on the QB. This isn't a common opinion here but watch it again. The OL, for the most part, gives JOK time. That is something he hasn't had. In gaining time, I think it uncovered another wart in that receivers simply don't get open. I wanted to be critical of the play calling but more often than not, our guys were in a position to succeed and there wasn't anyone to throw the ball to.
That said, I had to simply get updates from an app called Score Mobile and all I see are things like "Karan Higdon rush for 2 yards", "John O'Korn incomplete pass to the left" so it is pretty vague on what is actually going on. So I come to my Rivals app and read the thread for the game. Holy hell. It makes for a very terrible experience of what is actually going on.
Anyway, i had to watch after the fact but to me, it seemed our biggest problem today was guys simply not getting open and JOK having nobody to throw to although he FINALLY had time on 90% of dropbacks. This is simply something I think is going to take time to make better. I can only hope it comes sooner rather than later.
