Just quick stuff .. may give a bigger review in game 3 or 4 when I think cuts may be made.
Also, a note. I don’t usually see things the way everyone else does. Sometimes I’m viewing dispassionately, sometimes I’m just wrong. Either way it’s usually a different take on most things.
The Good
1) The young right side of the O line is the most stable spot on the offense. (That will likely show up someplace else too.)
2) Christian Bryant showed up with some serious play. That’s the kind of stuff I remembered at Ohio State.
3) Givens had a good enough game to maybe demand a draft pick from Carolina.
4) Trey Watts was on fire. He’s going to be hard to unseat, even with Malcolm Brown playing so well.
5) Dorial Green-Beckham … though that’s only good for fantasy football in keeper/dynasty leagues.
6) Mannion looked confident and was throwing a really good ball. Solid in the two minute drill.
7) Again, Forston showed up well at DT.
8) Rhaney looked like he deserves reps with the ones. Reps. He’s not there yet, but he needs another game to show it.
9). The pocket awareness Foles showed on the 3rd and 4 to Britt was pretty vital to what we want from a QB.
The Not bad, but the boring …
10). Looked like the offensive game plan included running specific plays so that the O line would have had their feet wet no matter what after a few series. I’m guessing of course, but there’s no reason to run until you punt unless you really have plays you want to get snapped.
11). No interesting blitz packages. So be it.
12) No Brian Quick still. Bummer.
The Bad
13) Barron, in general you have to make that catch, but against a rookie it is your duty as a member of the NFL welcome committee to catch that ball.
14). AGAIN WITH THE ROUGHING THE PASSER!! One good call and one bad call … so it’s “ugh the refs” and “Ugh Sims!”.
15). Bishop Sankey tore us up? Why?
16). The young right side of the Online IS THE MOST STABLE PART OF THE OFFENSE SO FAR. Ugh.
17). Which RB didn’t turn upfield fast enough? Lead? That’s why we didn’t get that first down.
18). Brandon Washington is not good enough to play OLG. They need Wichmann to heal fast and have GR man it until he is ready.
