a vertical down the field thread? You mean in terms of the team or Atwell specifically?
No, I don't think it was all on JG... I think it was less than quality OL play, (which I think they very much intend to address before kickoff), and an incompatibility between McVay and JG... both most likely at fault and neither at the same time.
We've been focused on McVay vs JG, for good reason, but I think it overlooks a very real possibility... that being - - the one person McVay was most aggravated with last year was himself. - JamesJM
