I guess I'm in the minority but I don't see shame in losing to either of those teams.
This. The big problem on offense Thursday night was right guard. Bobby had his requisite failures, but Johnson killed us. I was shocked how bad the D line played - especially Dunlap - but if we get at least Daniels back (I fear that Geno is just not going to have a good season with a messed up shoulder) I think the D-line will snap back, and the linebackers are young or slow.
I also think it's going to take AJ some games to get back to speed. I don't think he'll be that slow all year - and Ward is a beast. He also has not had the reps to get on the same page as Burrow.
Even though he's slow, they should use Tate. I have a lot of confidence in him in the crunch. Ross can do great things, but is just not a money receiver.
I don't think this is over by a long shot. BAD year to not have OTAs and a pre season with so many rookies and other new players. They're going to need some time to get the chemistry going. But I'm really hoping XSF is back soon. Them other guys is tragic!
