One thing I still can't see for the life of me is the fact that we don't pass to Mitchell more. He is also a great pass catcher. Forget Hasty as a third down back to keep Mitchell in, every time he gets the ball he does absolutely garbage with it. I don't know why our coach does not see this. Do not put Hasty in unless it's to give Mitchell a breather. I'm just tired of Hasty running into the back of our line or not slipping a tackle or even falling down, that is all!

It isn't just Mitchell they don't throw to - they don't throw to any of their backs.

Very true. We need to throw way more screens like GB. they would get us plenty of yards and extend drives at a minimum. I've seen way worse OL's do it successfully

Yeah, screens are very effective to slow the rush down - I don't know why Kyle doesn't use it.

Poor kid needs a break. He looked beat-up and tired for the first time today. We need him but his load has to get reduced going forward. He's a warrior for sure but still just a rookie.

I can't believe he finished the game. That cheap shot to the head, I thought he was out cold.

sus is right. They're running this dude into the ground.

Elijah Mitchell, who was cleared of a concussion & returned to the game, showed up today with concussion symptoms and is now in the protocol. This is a week after Marcell Harris was checked, cleared, played & later put in the protocol. Harris missed the Seahawks game b/c of it.
