Don't miss these days, but enjoyed watching. Richard Todd was NOT the answer. But to be honest, this offensive line did struggle in passing situations.

And if you like penalties, this is the game for you. 26 penalties called, 22 accepted. So glad all scoring plays are reviewed today. Just about every touchdown in the 1st half would have been reversed. Runners would have been down prior to crossing the goal line, receivers not having two feet in bounds while in the endzone (defensive player pushed the receiver out of bounds before coming down down), or players fumbling before reaching the goal line. All this in the first half alone. What a game. George Rogers was fun to watch. He would be a player that could play on a team today.

Not the outcome we have come to expect, but if the game was played with today's rules and reviews, the outcome probably would have been much different.
