With Lafell playing this way and Eifert shaking off the rust it gets harder to double A.J. I'm glad we won but this team has some issues, Cleveland is not a good team by any means and if we play better competition we will not win. I don't wanna sound like a downer but I had Super Bowl aspirations for this team last year and I'm not gonna be satisfied with a sloppy win vs the worst team in the league with their 5th string qb, best WR hurt and pro bowl corner back out. Coaching continues to be an issue the Green Hail Mary at the end of the half bailed out the terrible clock management of the coaching staff that even the commentators criticized. The defense has some major issues and can't get off the field on 3rd down to save their lives. They couldn't figure out how to stop a simple option with the qb , Michael Johnson looked lost and refused to tackle the Qb. Speed at linebacker continues to kill us. Hopefully they can clean it up anybody could win this division.
I totally agree with Lone Bengal. I also have a few opinions of my own:
1. Dansby should be benched or cut;
2. Sadly Vigil looked like a cardboard cutout on his one play;
3. Middle of Defense looked useless with gaping holes;
4. Defensive players DO NOT TACKLE WELL. Can this be coached?
5. End of half heroics by AD and AJ in spite of Marvin. Can’t count on that ever working again;
6. Green enjoyed single coverage a lot, but Zippy Zamp didn’t take advantage;
7. Dalton seems to be taking too many sacks unnecessarily;
8. Peko was manhandled all day and looks to be very close to "retirement";
9. Williams carrying the ball after INT was a fumble waiting to happen – and it did;
10. Defense never did adjust to QB/RB out the backside. QB had 100 yards;
11. Dennard still seems lost;
12. Nugent is Nugent-- what can I say except damn glad the game wasn't close;
13. Ericson doesn’t look like I had hoped would as a returner, and NO I don't want Tate;
14. Good News – Besides the W...No Nance or Simms. The commentators weren't very good though.
