#2 was sacked more than 50 times last season and still threw for over 3,000 yards with a 69% completion percentage and 27 TDs to 3 INTs. Those numbers are crazy good considering how much pressure he was under. Can you imagine how much better this team will be with better pass protection and a run game.

What impressed me more than anything Prime said is about how Shedeur has developed RELATIONSHIPS with his offensive linemen and receivers not just on the field but also off the field. This was lacking last season and it showed when the OL didn’t invest in protecting Shedeur. He has made a concerted effort to build a strong relationship with the people who are responsible for keeping him upright and giving him time to throw the football. GREAT JOB SHEDEUR!

If Travis is the best at 2 positions, why not only play 1 during a game? He’s not going to be able to do the same in the NFL. You can’t name him the best in college football if he hasn’t showed a glimpse of it yet. He wasn’t even in the top half for the PAC 12 last year for both scoring and defense, barring injuries of course. IMO it’s Deion that’s pushing him to play both sides. Maybe I’m wrong. I’m sure Travis heard constantly how great Prime was back in the day and how he played multiple sports but he’s a completely different athlete. Show us he’s the most talented then maybe some will start to “believe” as Deion always said until they dropped 6 straight losses last year. I hate rooting against someone but Jesus, stop calling your guys the greatest before the season even starts. Deion desperately needs to use “us” more when talking to the media after a loss, not throwing his team under the bus

Also, didn't Arizona just lose their coach and their best starters in the Jedd Fisch move to Washington??
