The coaching staff's preparations for and adjustments with Huntley thrown in were embarrassing and that's about it. Huntley played up more or less to his talent - He's not starter material and he was kept in check by a good defense, and had a couple bad throws picked off. Coaching staff started out super tentative running the ball constantly instead of keeping up a balanced offensive attack, then Minnesota decided to dare them to throw. Will be interesting to see how he performs with a full week of practice with the first team and the game plan centered around him.

A loss is a loss. Close losses don't get bonus points. Blowout games don't deduct wins.

Unless the defense, which had a lot of their own injury issues, put the ball into the endzone 3 times themselves, this was going to be a loss no matter what.

It's not over. Maybe if we're lucky he'll be fundamentally sound and thus able to move the chains in classic WCO style.
