One penalty.

[bengaloo]

I'm in the camp that we just need to execute. As Fred pointed out, one little penalty made the difference. But looking back, the Mixon fumble was huge and he isnt a fumbler. A couple overthrown balls to WR's who Burrow hasnt had much time to throw with. Etc and so on. We played a sloppy game but showed a lot of promise.

What gives me hope is that we were still in the game even though the OL especially Hart struggled. We had a chance to win it, a lame flag called it back, and then Randy shanked the tying FG. I'm not worried. We have a rookie QB, no preseason, hardly any offseason practice, and a lot of other new faces on the team. We will be fine. Just enjoy watching the team grow is my thing.
