First Quarter,


Bob in STL

Recommended Posts

The First Quarter was the only part of the game were both teams played all of their starters lets discuss the best and worst things we saw yesterday.

 

The quarter ended 10-3 with the Skins driving for their next TD. We had two offensive possessions totally 6 minutes, 22 yards rushing, 44 yards passing, 5 first downs and 2 penalties for 25 yards.

 

Worst - Our pass rush. No QB pressure in the first two series. The run defense was pretty good.

 

Best- Our first series on offense. We really mixed up plays and moved the chains. Chan alluded to some things he wanted to do with two RB's that he could not do with Jackson and Lynch out. I am hopeful that when our starting OL comes together that we make a big stride forward.

 

Keep the faith.

steve johnson was playing well. He would have gotten a lot of attention if trent did not over throw his pass. Steve is not the fastest out there but he is very quick which helped him get that first down on his only catch.

 

 

Johnson was ok nothing a special. He did not get separation on the bomb.

 

The starting combination of Evans, Johnson and Stupar is not going to scare anybody. It could be one of the worst WR/TE combos we have had in years actually.

 

We will be throwing to our backs a lot this year and trying to get favorable match ups on linebackers. Expect to see two tailbacks in the game a lot. Chan said thay had plays featuring Lynch and Jackson that got shelved when they both got hurt. Hopefully Spiller will start to pick up the offense.

I agree that we need to keep the faith after this ONE GAME. We showed some positive ideas on offense, despite a couple of bad penalties and and injuries to 2 funning backs. awhile the defense didnt do anything amazing, it was our secondary, which is supposed to be the most solid part of our team that was screwing up.
