Bama has given up 9 sacks for 45 yds YTD
Why is this important?
1)Tebow as Percy Harvin commented from the sideline has taken too many hits-remember
the concussion.
2)It kills drives and frustrates us often near and in the red zone.
Suggestions-keep Fullback and Moody or Demps in the backfield to pick up blitzes. Start throwing more screen passes and running draw plays. Move Rainey into Harvin's
old position and throw to him making the opponent defend the whole field.

The sacks are up for one main reason, we're passing the ball more.
No doubt about it, we need to keep an extra blocking back in the backfield with Tebow to give him another 1 - 1/12 seconds to find a reciever, especially to proetct his blindside.
I'd prefer we actually use more "I" formation than just hearing the coaches say we will, and Tebow getting rid of the ball earlier and quicker instead of hanging onto it for 4 - 5 seconds, which is usually when he's sacked.
Good thing is that since the Miss. St. game, Tim isn't forcing the ball and getting TO's.
I liked how Brantley got rid of the ball quickly and when Tim did, he usually made the completion.
An adjustment needed
