Here are a few of the things I can remember.
- No Mixon, AJ, Ross, or Dunlap.
- There were supposed to be refs but none were there. Lap made a big deal about this. Said refs need reps as well and since preseason is gone, he doesn't know what to expect come real time.
- 1st team Offense started against 1st team Defense. Offense went 3 and out with Burrow missing his 1st 2 throws.
- Burrow then missed his next throw as well, starting 0/3. He then quickly turned it around and drove straight down and scored a TD to Boyd. Lap made a comment about his poise. That he started out rough but it doesn't faze him. There was confusion without refs. It may have been called back due to a "sack" or they may have just reset.
- Burrow also had a nice 20+ TD pass to Boyd later in the game too.
- Overall, Burrow had some ups and downs but a good showing. Was 19/34 with 1TD and 1 INT. The INT was controversial since the WR was thrown to the ground in the endzone. Again, no refs so who knows.
- Finley then got some snaps against the 2nd team. He was awful as expected. He threw 2 balls that should have been INT by Tony Brown but he dropped them.
- Defense won the scrimmage 22-13.
I had been hearing on the radio, that Burrow hasn't been as sharp because the defense is doing some more complex things, but that he keeps getting significantly better the more he sees.
