Through two weeks, Arkansas has shown us they can dominate opponents and beat themselves. It’s shown flashes of greatness and flashbacks to the Chad Morris era. The Razorbacks have a consistency problem, which isn’t a recipe for success in the SEC.

Thankfully, there are a few things that could help Arkansas going forward into conference play. Right now, the biggest problems are on defense. Getting to the opposing quarterback and finishing tackles will limit big plays and help make the defense more consistent. On the other side of the ball, QB play has to be better. Taylen Green was 11/26 from the pocket, which won’t win in the SEC, even with his amazing running abilities.

One of the reasons Taylen Green is the starting quarterback for the Razorbacks is his explosive playmaking abilities. The most obvious example is what he can do with his legs. He’s deceptively fast and can improvise in the passing game by either taking off with the football or running from pressure for some backyard football type of plays.

There’s one more thing that makes him explosive; he almost always takes the deep option. The problem with that is he takes more chances than he has to. More than once this season, Green has thrown a pass that was either wildly inaccurate or highly contested deep down the field with his check-down receivers open.
