2. Make life easy for Miller Moss

Miller Moss has big shoes to fill as he will come in as Jeff Brohm's third consecutive quarterback from the Transfer Portal, and the previous two threw for 3,000 yards or more and went on to achieve nine wins or more. The Cardinals are on the verge of taking that next step, but to do so, they must make life easy for Moss.

Louisville has three easy opponents to start the season, to help the 4-star transfer find his groove and gain chemistry with the offense. This is the best thing for Brohm and his Cardinals, as Moss needs to ease his way into the season and regain his confidence after a disappointing season last year.

Brian Brohm and his offense must do everything they can this season to keep Moss healthy, but also to make it come easy for him. Rely on the run and don't overuse Moss. The Cardinals have playmakers all around him; be sure to use those playmakers. Isaac Brown and Duke Watson are the stars of this offense. Give them some more carries, don't overcomplicate things, and let the passing game develop and Moss get comfortable as the season progresses.
