theJ Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Five up Geno Atkins destroyed that game Carl Lawson should be a perennial Pro Bowl, and occasional All Pro guy. Another great game. Offensive line in pass protection WJIII and Denard i thought were good, after being forced in due to injury Tyler Kroft made some clutch catches in the second half Five down Offensive line in run blocking Turnovers again. They have to clean those up. If they do, there's still hope for this season. Letting Brandon Tate get a long punt return Letting Brandon Tate catch a touchdown The injuries. Yikes. Good thing the bye is coming up. Left AJ Green and Dalton off. Thought they were both up and down. But ultimately they played well enough to win.

I noticed that MJ was getting a lot of snaps outside at the beginning of the game. But toward the end, those snaps were going to Willis. Lawson took the spot on almost every third down and most of the 2nd and longs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ochocinco4pres Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Vigil is playing real well so far this year. MJ did great as a DT. The run blocking is laughable at this point. Cannot rely on our RBs to get yards when they are getting hit in the backfield every play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be interesting to see what might happen to him if Marvin retires at the end of the year. But for now, we just get to appreciate the step up from Zampese.

Good thing the bye is coming up. Left AJ Green and Dalton off. Thought they were both up and down. But ultimately they played well enough to win. Great list. A couple to add: Up Burfict and Vigil. Together, they are killing it. Our LBs are finally a strength, not a liability. I think of Lawson as a DE, but throw him on here too and this unit is STRONG Andre Smith has brought composure to the line, or at least the tackles, and Boling holds up the middle. get Hopkins back and we might survive, even thrive, for the remainder of the season. Down Run blocking: You mentioned it, but it bears repeating. The running game isn't getting enough holes to exploit. Inconsistent officiating- the two bad ones were both against us, only a few plays apart. Green got drilled in the head from a blind-side hit. I don't care if he was a runner. He was going down due to contact from the other CB. Kelce drew the flag against Houston for the exact same thing. Then, moments later, Lawson got flagged for putting his hand on Taylor as he jumped over him and avoided serious contact. The shape of the ball: How long will it be before we recover another fumble? They had the one by McCoy( I think) that somehow took the perfect bounce to their RT, laying prone on the field. Literally any other kind of bounce and we have FIVE guys in the vicinity. Don't the laws of average have to work in our favor at some point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
