This game was hard to watch. The field was a mess, both teams were sloppy and the flag fest made it worse. This was not a good product to showcase to a new market (Brazil).
+ Tucker Kraft has the making of a top tier tight end. Minus the hold (very ticky tacky), he shined.
- Jordan Love's mechanics were a mess again. He kept throwing off platform and his accuracy was off all night and he kept throwing off platform. I'm sure Clements will harp on that, but that has something that has been stressed since he was drafted. He's got to use that ability only when needed and not all the time.
- I understand the D-line had to maintain rush lines to corral Hurts and overall mission accomplished, but Hafley did nothing to speed up Hurts' clock. You can't leave your secondary out to dry with such a talented WR core.
- Our LB's are a huge weakness. Walker is not an MLB. McDuffie is a great backup. Eric Wilson is a special teamer who should only be playing defense as a last resort. This will get picked on all year.
+ Bullard and McKinney looked really good.
? Watson is a speed guy who looks so uncomfortable/awkward breaking down in shorter routes and is not strong to the ball. I'm glad he is healthy, but I don't think he has the skill set to be more than a WR2 or WR3/speed decoy. That's valuable, but not what was envisioned when he was drafted.
- Really surprised by Wicks' performance. I thought this would be a break out year for him, but he got off to a very bad start. Hoping it is just yips and he just had a bad game.
