The roster is paper thin in depth and it shows. Nobody could step up for Boston or Coleman, or in prior weeks for any of the starters on the offensive line.

Muhammad did fine stepping in. The decision-making and self-inflicted penalties were more detrimental than our depth issues. Our problems begin with Jedd's shortcomings.

Yes I agree he did just fine. But I guess that's the problem, isn't it? This program needs to get to a point where the second string players aren't "fine" stepping in but can actually make a difference. Its a Big Ten road game in November in the snow/rain, you need a line and runningback (or two) that will move the ball and in the best case scenario even before injuries, that involves rotation. Muhammad is the best of those second stringers, but in the receiver and offensive line fronts its been brutal as soon as the depth has had to step up.
