I was very impressed with the spring game today. I thought both sides played well particularly for April.

A few notes...

  • Loved the fact Lanning allowed the offense to open up. This will not be a ground and pound situation we have seen since the Chip Kelly era
  • DJ Johnson has a chance to be really good on the DL. I realize the OL was split squad but still, the Predator made many plays
  • Chase Cota is going to be a big time help on for the offense
  • Seven McGee is looking outstanding. I've loved him long long time so am very happy he is getting to show his wares now
  • Dan Lanning was a good hire
  • I'm hoping the RB's get a chance to shine more during the season. I like a balanced attack so we need to be able to run the ball
  • Glad the Ducks got the missed FG's out of the way now
  • The DB mix should be new and interesting. Guys like JJ Greenfield showed out.
  • The QB situation... very interesting. Bo Nix looked good mostly, but sometimes bad. Ty Thompson clearly can be excellent, but has work to do. Butterfield had some solid moments himself
  • Ducks need the LB group to be healthy for the season to be a great one
  • Hoping the OL looks better once it's not split squad. They have every opportunity to be good, but we need to see it.
Cheers!
