Less Fair catches. I can't believe all the fair Catches. Sometimes they're needed but when you've got room to catch and run... RUN SUCKA...RUN!!!

Gordon Sherman

Need someone to catch the ball and run.....simple and Bell needs to get rid of the chip on his shoulder

Seem like every returner always has 3-4 people in his face when he catches the ball.

Allen H. Browning

We need to pressure the kicker. we never do and that kills us.

Russ Judson

It all starts with blocking. Without better blocking, you could put Ameer back there and I'm not sure the results would be a whole lot better (but more of a chance he'd get hurt).

Bart Burroughs

I think it is actually both. someone that is consistently able to catch the ball and is a breakaway threat, as well as better blocking so they have a chance to move the ball up field after the catch

Arlie Rauch

The punt returners are hardly given a chance.

We have talent in the room. They will have the same learning curve that Emmett had. He was an average back at the beginning of last season and look how he blossomed. That said, if a solid back is available, take him of course

Bill Scheef

Nebraska is a 3rd Tier team in the BIG 10 and an after thought nationally and our expectations for recruiting should reflect that. With the powers in the BIG 10 nationally Nebraska's "good old days..." are just. Swept into the dust bin of what once was...Sorry, but...it's the truth as I see it.

Adveresity often brings out the best in a team.

We have yet to lose two in a row this season, and I think I formation with TJ and EJ has the potential to be devastating. GBR 🤘

Brad Bredenkamp

They won’t come out flat like they did last year. It will be a team win with a defensive or special teams score.

James Key

yes if EJ has plus 100 and TJ has 50 Run and 166 Pass. Then yes. All bets off if over 2 TO.

Ron Joseph

Time for the O to show their potential in support TJ. Once he gets comfortable with the game, he will add a dimension to the game we haven't had- dual threat QB.

Not enough players with the "it factor".

VAHuskerFan

Unfortunately we still have a terrible O-line and now Freshman QB a Defense that can’t stop anyone, I don’t have much hope for the season ending on a positive note. Lose by 17
