If he can't make good defenses respect his arm we will get beaten. Denard's passing has been lackluster but that's part of learning Borges' new offensive system. He's adapting and Borges is adapting to what Denard is comfortable with. Last week was a big improvement in Denard's timing and comfort throwing the ball, even though it was against inferior competition. It was still a nice confidence booster and is yet another key piece to the big puzzle. I like what I'm seeing so far as I think they've come a LONG way in a short time.

AND it is amazing how far the defense has come. Night and day difference from last year. Give us a good defense last year and they would have rolled.
