It’s a funny thing how the narrative of a season can be shaped quickly. Take Clemson’s passing game, for instance. In the early weeks of the season, Deshaun Watson struggled to connect downfield, his receivers dropped too many balls, the offensive line didn’t protect particularly well and the story became pretty simple: The Tigers’ offense isn’t meeting expectations.
The tough thing about narratives, however, is they don’t change nearly as quickly as they form.
Take a real look at Clemson’s passing attack, however, and it’s as good as anyone could’ve hoped for this season, and it’s gotten better nearly every week.
