Wk. 2 ................ The good, the bad, and the ugly

The good:
1. The obvious ----- we won
2. We came away for the 2nd straight week relatively injury free
3. It was the bengals
4. O-line represented again
5. Run defense was again on point
6. The secondary in general and Ross Cockrell in particular were incredible
7. D. Will is carrying us on his back
8. JJ and Grimble......... Ledarius who??
The Bad:
1. Still no sacks
2. Gotta tighten up on the underneath stuff (lbers take note); Darren Sproles won't be nearly as forgiving next week
3. Ben forcing the ball on those int's.... especially in bad weather, gotta take what the defense gives you

The ugly:
1. AB's stat line

 

Agreed on almost everything...

To Add... Less missed tackles...

The picks, and AB dropping a ball, were totally weather related...

We have more of that coming, and we know it..

McCullers looked better...

If we can do that with this crew, just look out for what we can do when Dupree, Bell, etc, come back!!!

Tight ends are making us look like fools for trading for LeDariuos.......

Didn`t see many negatives this week!!!

 

The Good-
We won plus we beat the bungles.
David Johnson made a great Block.
Grimble caught a pass.. TD!
Jesse is developing better than predicted.
We have a Kicker AND a Punter.

The Bad-
Ben looks horrible in the rain...... Why??
The bend don't break almost broke........

The Ugly-
The weather .......

Cajun

 

i don't think the weather had anything to do with AB's drop. he turned his head to look before he completed the catch. hey, it happens.

grimble made a very nice second catch in that game besides the TD.

 

more good is that teams are 7 of 26 on 3rd down conversions against us and 1 for 3 on 4th down. those are some good numbers.

 

Essentially, everything we were worried about turned out fine: good o-line, good coverage from Cockerell, good play from Grimble and James.

What we were bad at was exactly what we're meant to be good at.

 

The good...we won! The bad...I wasn't there to see it in person!

 

The Good - Our ability to stop the run along with our ability run the ball at will.

The Bad - The officiating.

The Ugly - Ben playing in terrible weather and trying to throw while refusing to wear a glove on his throwing hand. He had some decent passes but was uncharacteristically off target.

 

The Good:

• Exploiting the doubles and brackets on AB and Eli, with deep shots to Coates, seam busters to the TEs, and a commitment to the ground game
• Staying home on defense. Zones were strong, Man was tight, YAC was limited, Air Yards were minimal.
• The kicking game, in the weather. Nailed it.

The Bad:

• Oline struggled across the board
