Good - The DL is showing no signs of slowing down in the pass rush department. Irving and Lawrence are just feasting out there. In the back of my head, I was always worried that the first 5-6 games were kind of a fluke but that's not the case.

Bad - I still don't trust the secondary. Lewis and Woods looked like rookies today. Not that I am saying they suck, but they had some issues today and that's the problem when you are relying on so many young players in a secondary. Heath is just Heath. What can you say? At least Jones didn't drop that last pick. LOL.

Good - Zeke. Ran strong. Fumble is excusable in those conditions as long as that's that.

Bad - Collins. He really struggled with Kerrigan or just about anyone coming off the edge. Hopefully just a bad game.

Good - Interior OL. Cooper had that one penalty but overall, they looked strong.

Bad - MLB play. Smith looks lost still. Hitchens is just OK. I think I saw Lee playing more MLB today than I can ever remember. That being said, you saw a glimpse of the freakish skills Smith had on that near interception. If he can ever get completely healthy and figure out what's going on and settle down, he could be a keeper.

Good - I thought Prescott looked really sharp early and we attacked the middle of the field with slants. And then suddenly, we stopped. I don't get some of the playcalling at times but while overall Prescott didn't have a great game, he protected the ball and looked really sharp early.

Bad - Bryant. Bad might be overkill, for sure. Maybe "average". Now, I am not suggesting we need to trade him or anything like that. I am also not suggesting he's entirely at fault in all of this but if you are going to prance around the sidelines complaining about balls, then you have to make that TD catch. It's a tough catch, but elite WRs come down with that ball. Maybe in the end I am just tired of seeing him throwing little tirades on the sidelines.

Good - Lee. What can you say?

Bad - Switzer on punts. Yuck. The kneel on the last kickoff seemed to surprise the entire team and staff. I guess he was thinking he just didn't want to fumble? Who knows. He did make a big third down catch when Beasley was out.
 
I want to see what Bryant actually said before I hear he is complaining.

I have learned from the past. This was a marquee matchup with a lot of teams off today...I’m sure a few guys were mic’d Up.
 
I’ll add another Good: Having the guts to go for it on 4th and 1 on your side of the 50 early. I thought several times the playing calling was excellent!

Has he ever gone off? We found out after the Detroit game there was nothing there. I tend to believe his pattern that nothing was going on out of the norm.

i agree, and if he does? So what? Those that have been on sidelines during close games understand. I wish people would drop,that narrative on Dez.
