Lack of talent and experience in the secondary, coupled with I believe less consistent pressure up front by the DL. The DB's are playing on their heels too much instead of being smart and anticipatory. That should hopefully come with more experience in the system.
deep ball completions

Texas ran the same play against our all out blitz too (actually twice, first time their RB slipped and it was incomplete, the 2nd time it was a TD).
Didn't we move Payne to safety last year (thus inserting Young and Johnson at CB opposite Peavy) in order to better cover deep pass?
Any QB can complete deep passes against any defense if they face no pressure. This is why McDonald getting more work on passing downs is important, and this issue is probably related to Bailey going down for the year...

Forgot about those - I guess what stood out on this one was how fast Pooka was coming out of the backfield. What's the odds we see the same play against K-state?!
Pass to the running back down the middle has burned us over a couple of games. Basically out running our safety.
Here I thought this thread would be about Purdy not throwing over the top as often.
