Dye securing the ball, no fumbles. McGee and another back need to rise up to fill the void. Brown to take a handful of shots (and complete them!) over 7 yards to spread out the D. Hurry up, no huddle on offense to keep their suspect D on their heels. Need QB pressure and more blitzing from the LB's. Cut penalties in half.

For Anthony Brown to get the ball in the hands of other players and let them try to win the game instead of making "the read" that it is up to him.

Don't set out to "establish the run." Just mix it up and play good offense. Establish that they don't know what's coming next.
Put it in the end zone on at least 2 of the first 3 and 3 of the first 5 possessions.
Break a kick return or punt return for 40 yards or more sometime in the first half.
Get a takeaway in the first half.
Do 3 of the 4 above and then come out at the start of the third and get a score on the first possession.

I want to see them look hungry and come out focussed. There's no reason they can't come out energized and not half to play from behind.
A strong finish would be nice too regardless of the score.
KT coming out in the second half and looking like a top pick in the draft.
Coaching adjustments and better short yardage play calling.
Go Ducks!

Word on Twitter: No sign of Moorhead in the sidelines. My eyesight isn’t good enough to see if he’s on the sideline, let alone in a booth. Anyone know anything?

James Crepea is reporting the same thing that he isn't on the field. I can't find anything more definitive than that.

Positive test?
Moorhead is upstairs in the booth.
