I was a little surprised to see no one had started a thread about Jeremy Hill's performance today:
16 carries for 86 yards
His long carry was only 15 yards, but he averaged 5.1 ypc. He also had a nice run after a catch for 14 yards and a first down.
I don't mean to say that he is 100% back to what he was late last season, but I saw some things I really liked:
- He looked decisive
- He rarely went down from first contact
- He got "dinged", but kept coming back
Special mention has to go to one of the unsung heroes of this team, Ryan Hewitt. He is an outstanding blocker, but also showed his versatility again with two catches for 29 yards. He is one of the biggest bargains in the NFL. An UDFA, he is a true "nuts and bolts" guy that helps this machine work.
Also the offensive line needs credit for opening holes and keeping Andy clean all day. I think the full week between games and getting back on that schedule is huge. Great job!
