Do our Tackles have a short hook Saturday?

I am beginning to wonder if one reason Hendon and our offense looked so good in 2022 might not have been Darnell Wright.

Just wondering if Heard and Campbell start out playing poorly again, will Elarbee and Heupel quickly bring in Johnson and Davis or just stick it out with the starters.

lol

Nico can help make up not having a lot of time by using his legs. What frustrates me more is the backbreaker false starts.

This is where the "short hook" on the tackles breaks down. Replacing guys who are used to the cadence and snap counts with guys who have less practice is a recipe for more pre-snap penalities.

A solid offensive line isn't "plug and play" as we've seen when injuries have hurt us in recent years. They need to work together, understand what Mays says about wrinkles in the blocking at the line if he sees something, and mostly just take a billion practice snaps.

If we're continually changing the front "looking for the right combination" at this point in the season, we're going to have execution errors continually also.
