Some notes:
First half:
Nassib int, had a guy open deep but a man in his face and rushed the throw. Tried to make a play which is admirable but potentially shouldve just chucked it into the bench.
Stevens shouldve laid out for that deep ball. Had to be able to get closer than what he did on what appeared a very well thrown ball.
Bailey misses some holes, doesnt have time to get started on others.
We looked damn good on the first scoring drive and the first quarter as a whole we looked quite dominate.
On defense we've got guys in position, just need to wrap and have more consistancy in making the play once there. This is a result of inexperience, but at least the coaches have guys where they should be to make plays.
4th and 1 "stop" looked like Smith had enough and the spot was well short of where he came down. Huge momentum shift for their D.
On offense, at some point their d coordinator has our number. Seems they are sitting on our snap count and possibly have an early read or "tell" before the ball is even snapped. Not sure what it might be but there is something that was picked up on and something we need to correct.
Sucks being out of timeouts. Rhody WR obviously trapped the ball and was credited with a catch. Our guys are standing around waiting for a review, they quick snap and run it in for a TD the next play. Suffice to say that is a learning experience and hopefully is not repeated for both the players and the coaches.
Our 2nd scoring drive was beautiful. Once Nassib settles down he is about as accurate as can be. Bailey had a tough run for a first down but looked like he couldve bounced it outside for a big gainer.
Keon Lyn with the vintage McNabb chucking his lunch on the field.
Bailey again looks quick to turn north south when potentially should stretch a few more towards the sideline.
First punt of the night with 3 mins left in the half. Poor kick, no height and short. New long snapper is much better on both punts and XP snaps though.
Nice pick on the tip by Phillip Thomas. Penalty on Dy Davis that wasnt shown on TV. Have to wonder what that last drive may have looked like starting from the 30 vs the 11.
Halftime: This game shouldnt be this tight. Rhody is a well coached team with a veteran QB. Decent pressure from the D line which following the updates and gamecast sure didnt sound like the case. Offense looks better in quick sets vs allowing the defense time to set up. Oline not getting overpowered just simply missing some blocking assignments. Should really be 21-0 or 28-0 but 14-7 which is both frusterating and give Rhody confidence.
That's all i've got time for tonight. We looked alot closer to a good team in the first half than a team that shouldve been up by only 7. Not sure if these notes are of any interest to the board but figured I'd share.
