THE BAD:
Matt Cassell, poor throws, poor decisions, must elevate his game if we hope to contend.
THE UGLY:
the offensive play calling, and that's what it was "OFFENSIVE", especially after we built the 21-7 lead. why didn't we throw on first downs, why did we constantly have 3rd & long, why didn't we let Cassell earn his pay and throw downfield. we just went into a shell and prayed rivers imploded, which he did, mainly cause he was so pissssssssd at his center for not snapping in time. but a win is a win and it is GRRRREAT!!!

I also thought the D did a good job on the run and the secondary for the most part did a good job. Yeah, they let a couple of big plays happen which I think they'll correct. The thing that concerns me is the "D" line still. It was good to see some pressure applied to Rivers, but I feel it wasn't enough. There were too many times when Rivers had all day to throw the ball. And if the weather had been better it have been disasterous. I think Cassell needs to step up his game as well or defenses will stack the box against Charles and Jones and especially Bowe. He had two passes that he should of caught, that's why you get paid the big bucks! I also agree that the play calling in the second half was terrible, very predictable. I'm happy for the win, but those are the areas I see that we need to improve on.
Keeping my britches between the ditches! :character00182:
