You want a sign of Kirby evolving, read/listen to his press conference comments about how the pressure our offense puts on opposing teams helps our defense and allows them to play loose. This is what has been missing from our team in the past. We’ve seen through 3 games that teams can actually run a little bit on us, but it seems like teams are abandoning the run early and not playing within themselves. This is the same effect that Bama has had on teams over the last few years. You feel like if you don’t match every score the game is going to get out of control very quickly. Our offense is making other offenses press and that plays directly into the hands (no pun intended) of the back end of our defense.
