Was wondering you alls thoughts on the game last night and seeing if anyone is panicking.
Last night was supposed to be the dress rehearsal where our starters play a half of football. With obvious O-Line injuries and troubles we decided to hold some of the starters out of the line. That being said it was common sense not to put your starting QB on the field. And Elliot has looked amazing in practice so no chance going to be take there.
IMO Rush hasn’t taken the next step. He actually looked worse than I remembered. White may have out played him.
I watched the game but didn’t watch the line like some of you do. I was mostly drinking and sitting there with my mouth open at all the turn overs. Our Offense looked poor. Now it’s to be taken with a grain of salt. We have 2nd and 3rd stringers in against the cards starting line up. But what a drop off at the next level.
ST had some pretty sloppy play. Jones not paying attention runs into Lenoir. Not Lenoirs fault in that one. But the next one he should have never fielded. Poor kid has worked his butt off to make a chance to make the team. After that second fumble you could see the look on his face. Thought he was gonna cry. They need work on the return game.
Offense got nothing going other than a few starts to decent drives that we’re ended by turnovers. Rush threw another pick in the end zone. RB fumbles trying the old Elliot hurdle move. Looney made a mistake but also made some good plays.
Nothing really from our WR that stood out. Beez looks really good. Rush misses a wide open TD. That’s gonna be nice plays waiting to happen this year.
Chaz has likely played his last game for us. He just isn’t improving at all. No matter where he is put.
Rico didn’t run with the 1s so not sure what’s up there. With us not using our starters on the line I assumed it would have been a good chance to put him in there against another teams 1s. If he missed assignments it wouldn’t have been worse than what we were seeing anyways. Lol
Defense... All I can say is wow. They looked great. What a change from years past. We are going to have constant pressure on qbs this year. Gregory has made the jump for sure. Even the commentators were commenting on how much trouble he was giving them.
Our secondary is getting more confident and was in full display. I loved seeing Richard lose his mind on the sidelines. And after he did. They responded on the field. Another safety went down but appears to be ok.
LB look fast. Jaylon was everywhere and there in a hurry. Thomas looks good. Lillard I like, he hits hard.
Going to be interesting this year. If the Offense can hold it together and ST can be at least serviceable. Our Defense will be a strength and that piece needed to taking us next level. Of course the year the Defense puts it together our Offense is the question mark.
Your thoughts?
