I doubt this will contain any items others haven't thought of but it's an attempt at a more complete list...

Cut Watson Loose - We have the best QB we've had in forever, let's cut him loose. Elliott needs to unleash Watson and let him do what he does! We have to develop a downfield passing game and Watson has thrown almost all his INTs on downfield throws where it was obvious he was expecting Mike Williams to do what he does and go get the damn ball. We have to find someone who can do a reasonable impersonation of Mike Williams. Oh boy do we miss him...

Must develop more WR depth - Those guys are just not showing out like they could be. We need more than the Artavis Scott show. Cain and McCloud look like the most likely candidates. We have to establish more play making ability at WR.

DE depth is a concern - Bryant got hurt last night. Hopefully he's OK. We need to build depth there for so many reasons not the least of which is we will be starting those guys next year because Dodd is a Sr. and Lawson is going to be a Top 5 pick in the NFL Draft.

LB drops in the passing game need to improve - ND killed us in space across the middle last night. We need better drops and we need to see the crossing receivers. Goodson is not good in pass coverage and I'd like to see O'Daniel pay his spot on passing downs and see how that works. Boulware seems more instinctive but we blitz him a lot.

We got a little blitz happy last night - Need to keep an eye on this. IMO, we blitzed too much in the 2nd half last night and we paid for it.

We need to develop a better option at 3rd CB than Carter - I admire the kid. He works his ass off but he's just not very good and teams are going to pick on him. We need a better option there.

That's all for now. I'm sure there are others people have thought of!

Go Tigers!
