Gonna re-post a few thoughts I had immediately after the game in rush’s thread, then piggy-back a few of yours and others in this thread.


“Watson was very good in the 2nd half, we couldn’t get the ball downfield in the 1st but our HT adjustments seemed to work. Chubb over a hundred, and the run D, for the most part, had a great game. We gave up too many sacks in the first half but their front is beast-like.
Nice to see Cade with no misses”

1. The announcer said a couple of times that guys weren’t getting open down the field, which is likely why DW held the bell too long on a few occasions.

2. That stop on D to begin the 2nd half was important, I agree. The 21- play drive they had could have sucked the heart out of a lot of teams, but we showed fight in the 2nd half.

3. We tackled well, as a unit. There didn’t seem to be a lot of YAC for them, not a lot of big plays, really. When your only TD came from a 21-play drive, you didn’t have many big plays, I guess.

4. Love our punter. When we needed him to smash a driver and send one deep, he did that. When we needed him to finesse a little knockdown wedge and pin them inside the 10, he did that, too.

5. Jones is solid, he seems to play fundamentally sound.

6. I wouldn’t have taken that FG off the board either; an old axiom is to never throw points away but I sorta get his reasoning. Not a bad play call there but Chase busted it up with a nice effort.
