The passing game was fairly lacking.. Cody Richardson overthrew several long bombs that could have been huge completions, and even threw a short pass that ended up being intercepted.

Chubz, the passing game is a 2 man show. Those WRs need to bust a hump to get to that ball. Cody had to put the ball where he knew only his man had a shot at catching it. After he lets it go, it's up to the receiver to finish it off with a catch. Passing in a gametime situation is a lot different than just passing for fun. And that short pass for an INT was due to the rush that the O line let through. Ya know, they call QBs and RBs and WRs skill positions, but it takse some skill to play on that line and our guys just didn't show much tonight. And even though they say a win is a win is a win, tonight's effort won't get it done against the Raiders. Maybe this is all a part of how long they waited to appoint a head coach which led to some slacking on the part of the players by not practicing enough this summer. And maybe as the season wears on and they practice and get better in shape they'll do a lot better. We can hope anyway.
