agreed that we need to make big strides, especially in holding onto the ball. I think the lack of distribution was a product of the formations we ran. The one option that may have been ignored was Hamby, IMO, and he's struggled somewhat lately. Gonzo was not involved in many plays, and we often went to other WRs when he was in the game, which usually worked well. He needs to get more involved, no doubt, but you have to put it into perspective. Usually we run many more plays and he is a small contributor (save a few games like Iowa, or the Alamo Bowl).

Gonzo played teddy's role sometimes today, and surprise, he was the one that disappeared. That is a problem, but I'm ok with our #3 WR not getting much action (vs. our #2 who is always in).

What I loved seeing were some of the adjustments that were made. Gonzo ran the out route (decoy) a few times, opening up Ginn downfield (including the TD). Ginn had some good blocks out there too. We were spoiled by some unbelievable performances by Teddy, and now I think we expect too much. IIRC, he caught two first down passes on the OSU sideline in addition to his TD where he shut up some of his "afraid of contact" critics.

It's pretty hard for him to get that involved when we missed at least 20-30 plays that most games would include thanks to turnovers.
