The offensive coordinator at Colorado is stepping up for the 52 sacks that Shedeur Sanders suffered last season. Pat Shurmur, the OC at Colorado, is not letting the loopholes in CU’s offensive line get the best of the team’s score this season, again, as he is setting the expectations straight from the recruits this season. Deion Sanders and Co. scored big with their recruits this season, with several four-star and five-star players committing to Sanders. Now that the offensive line is packed, it needs to be forged.
An example of that training is none other than the star QB of the team, Shedeur Sanders. At least, their motivation behind building a strong offensive line is. Fans were utterly disappointed with the number of times Shedeur Sanders was sacked last season. Not wanting to repeat even an ounce of that, Pat Shurmur gave his unfiltered advice to Jordan Seaton and Co. to improve their performances. “It obviously starts with running the ball and protecting the QB. We know how dynamic Shedeur can be,” Shurmur said.

That’s what we’re trying to do,” Shurmur said in the Well Off Media video where Deion Sanders is passing the offensive torch to Shurmur.
