Let's go back to how poor we were operationally week one to now.
We have a body of work of steady improvement.
So I do think it's something that he can do.
In terms of what do I think the difference is, one, I think every NFL offense gets better than the second half.
And there's a big piece of me that I watched a lot of teams this week.
Week 18s,
Actually, I think one of the more fun weeks to watch because you sit there and you see that, you know, Riley Leonard running out there for the Colts.
You see a team that's been on a horrific slide since their quarterback went down and they're competing with the best wildcard team in the AFC and they're running things like fake punt.
and then fake punt again, right?
And it leads you to this piece of, then you watch the fourth quarter of NFL games and you watch the Steelers come alive after doing virtually nothing for three quarters.
And it really does lead me to believe like, man, I wonder how much better NFL offenses would be as a whole if you just came out attacking.
Like if you played like that for 17 games,
How much better are you going to be?
And I do think it's interesting because I do think Ben Johnson is one of those guys who, and I know this week we're talking about them being a slow start and they've been slow start before.
I do think Ben Johnson is cut from that Kyle Shanahan tree, though, of it feels like we're coming out of the gate attacking.
Um, so, you know, do I see, you know, there's not a ton of glaring things on tape of what's different in the first, second, third quarter than the fourth, other than Caleb's own execution is better in the fourth, which then is it like, Hey, you know, when things are heightened, does he lock in more?
And if that's the case, how can we get him to do that earlier on?
That's, you know, going to be a big piece of their quarterback coach in building, figuring out, Hey, how's he wired and how can we get him to elevate more?
First quarter, second quarter.
Yeah, that's not shocking at all.
