A lot will come out when we hear about the film but I want to believe the DL played pretty damn well. I know Henry had a lot of yards but I'm not sure if that's on the DL or the guys filling in the gaps behind them. I do know that the line put more heat on Lamar passing than I've ever seen. Ed and Bosa both made huge plays knocking the ball out because they were 5 yards deep into the backfield.
Everyone on offense is what we thought they'd be. Out of the whole rest of the team I'd like to thank Big Ed Oliver, Joey Bosa, and Prater. Those 3 guys did just enough to give the offense what it needed to win this.
We are only down 2 scores. Nothing yet indicates we should win this but its' not like we couldn't. Two touchdowns and a two point conversion on one of them. Can we do it? I'm not feeling it but it could happen.
I like Sanders and Walker but I'll tell you what I wouldn't mind Alfred Collins right now. Moreover I'd rather have Makuba at safety than Jackson at DE.
Offense is on pace for 25 to 30 points. Offense isn't cooking but it's putting up points. Defense is giving up chunk plays like an episode of Oprah sponsored by chunk plays.
We have two safeties who don't thump runners and don't show up in coverage either. Yes Benford got beat but Poyer or Hyde from 5 years ago would have been all over that.
We've got two huge outside WR's and they are playing soft zone. How come none of these guys can run a slant and let Shakir and Kincaid work the seams and sail routes? Maybe if Keon caught a couple 6 or 7 yard slants and ran over a few guys they would come out of cover 2.
