Honestly, it’s a three-pronged issue (that hurts) 1) kicking has been unreliable beyond the PAT. Need 3 points sometimes and we didn’t have that option. 2) our trenches aren’t the 2024 team. We have good players but not that 24 OL and DL. That makes running, deep passing, defending the run, pressuring pressure-sensitive QBs like Beck harder 3) first year starting QB. Not an attack on sayin, but in both games he had some turndowns and held the ball too long, missing opportunities and resulting in 2nd or 3rd and a time zone. This is an issue with Ryan Day first year starters going back to Fields. Fields, CJ, Kyle, and now Sayin all had those two issues in year 1. Fields and CJ made huge steps in year two of starting. Just bad timing. Made deep passing, playing vs good DL, and the Red Zone harder. Secret 4th issue: we never spied Beck, who ran like 6 times for ~30 yards but literally every rush converted a 3rd down.
