Thought so myself. Very underrated acquisition it seems. Already much more impressed with Awuzie than what I saw from
WJ3 the last few years. Must just fit what Lou is running same with much of the Defense that is now here.

He is also a big Corner which helps.

Hope Waynes can be somewhat as good but I expect him to struggle being so rusty and coming off a hammy.

This one might be on the offense's ability to outscore them instead of relying on the defense and doing "just enough". 

My early pick for player of the game is Mixon.  I have a feeling he is going to have a huge night and wants to ball out on National TV.  

Sure love this. I absolutely hate to get ran on and this has been a major improvement this season so far.

This also helps our pass rush by putting the Offense in 3rd and longs so we can pin our ears back and get after the passer.

My pick for player of the game is Boyd. Think he starts scoring a TD or 2 and has a great game working in the Slot.

Think we rotate Evans in more which will keep Mixon fresh and this could also mean a big game for Mixon.

As Shake brought up in the other thread of his, we don't want to wear Mixon out.
