Evans as you said looked slow, Carman was a walking penalty and the refs missed the PI on Hakeem Butler late and it was inexcusable.
The DT's didn't play very well in this one, but it is early and Rankins and BJ Hill didn't play pretty sure.
The rest was pretty positive. The OL gave Burrow time early, Tee and Yoshi looked great. Mims looks like a fantastic pick, Jermaine Burton
shown that explosiveness late and I think he deserves more shots with the 1's as he is our most talented WR besides Ja'Marr IMO.
McLachlan shown some good things, same with Hudson at TE. Elijah Collins I really liked on a couple plays especially on the one catch and
run for 20 plus yards. Evans I am hoping is the odd RB out and either Collins takes his spot or we add a talented RB on cut day.
On Defense Fig Newton had the nice interception and Dax nearly had another. Myles Murphy had some nice pressures, I think Murphy is
really going to break out this year. Ossai had a couple pressures as well. Gunter looked good and so did Cedric Johnson. Hoping our DT's
play much better against the Bears, specifically Kris Jenkins. Need McKinnley to get healthy as well but overall it was what you want to see
in a preseason game, no bad injuries and we played well on Offense and Defense with mostly starters early.
Oh yeah, shout out to Njonmeta or whatever his name is. He was all over the place at LB. Bell #53 the DT was the only DT that impressed
me in this one, a nice Sack followed up by a nice run stop. But right after that he got a neutral zone infraction lol
McLachlan..I have watched his videos from college and as you saw briefly last night when he catches a ball and runs he looks like Gronk..Hope they give the guy more looks..Love Woodside
