Penguins Conclude First Major Scrimmage; New Faces Make Plays

<< < (2/3) > >>

penguinpower:
Defense gave up about 5 yards per carry and about 8 yards per pass.  If you take out the 70 yard run the d is giving up about 3.2 yards per carry.  That is concerning because against bigger OL ' S we will likely give up more yards. 

I get that it was a scrimmage and the stats are inconclusive but from a high level it is concerning to me.  Like to see the tfl's on the defensive stats.

I'll be the first to admit it................ I may have them way over rated. First consider that they were STUFFED for most of the scrimmage by the LAST PLACE D from the MVFC. Second, the D isn't that much improved. The story line for this year is how much the O has fallen off from last year. No real QB of any real ability and the OL is a work,  in progress, with not a one approaching ALL   Star status. 

Supposedly they weren't showing all the D to keep much of it under wraps for regular season games. That means that the O is much worst than I thought and  4th in the MVFC is over rated. QB questions, an OL in transition and a D not much better than last year. Thank goodness for 3 weenie games. With injuries, it could be ugly.

Defense and running game are going to have to carry us this yr until one of the QB's get comfy.
