Good observations in my opinion.

Driskel has been pretty good. It's so hard to evaluate though when he's going against dudes who probably won't be in the NFL in a couple weeks. DQ said the QB room is "special". Whatever decisions they make so it remains that way, are ok with me.

The kicker position IS a Code Red. I feel like it's been several years since we had a kicker for whom I wasn't holding my breath every time he lined up for a FG. We're definitely losing a couple close games this year due to missed kicks.

I tend to agree with your assessment of the CB situation. Our apparent starters are getting burned by backups. It could get ugly when it's 1s vs 1s. The only thing that makes me think it's not as bad as it has seemed is we haven't really played our starting D-line much. I'm hoping that makes a difference. It doesn't look good, though.
