First: props to everyone calling for more TE seams over the years. FINALLY. Now...more slants.

Second: the horizontal quick passes that many said wouldn't aid us in beating teams like PSU did, in fact, do just that. From Wilson: 

Wilson said the call was set up by the quick, horizontal passes the Buckeyes had thrown through much of the game. Wide receiver Terry McLaurin, split out wide near the Ohio State sideline, took one step after the snap and turned to look for the ball. That, combined with a play-action fake, was a decoy to pull the linebackers and safeties closer to the line of scrimmage.

Third: I smell a NEW DRY GOODS t-shirt.
