I learned that Bill Lazor understands how to scheme pressure. I have been banging the table for more boot actions and let Dalton and his quick release basically account for the end man. Last night you saw it multiple times and Dalton did well with it. Also interesting to see a lot of the window dressing movement Lazor was running. A lot of people don't understand, but that stuff is slowing down defenders as they have to process what that motion means to the play.
I learned that Bates could be the best player from our 2018 draft class and that is saying something. He gets one interception and nearly snags two more. I knew last week he didn't get to show much because of the lateral nature of the Colts offense. I am looking forward to his play over the next couple weeks as we run through a gauntlet of vertical offenses.
I learned our LB group has some serviceable depth. While they aren't stars Evans, Vigil and Nickerson can get it done. It makes me feel better that if Brown or Burfict go out later in the year we can at least make do.
I learned our depth at TE may be the best in the league. Laugh if you will but I am fine running any of our three TE's out there at anytime and expecting positive results. CJ Uzomah is worth resigning now as I think he has finally learned how to play TE.
