Remember in the first quarter when a few on the board where complaining Josh was making trash throws…. Yeh that was good times 

I'm from the future. You people still don't appreciate what you have.

As noted somewhere else, there is literally one QB2, and that person plays for the 9ers as their first.  This teams lives and dies with JA17, and I can't think of another team who has the benefit of would-be-awesome QB2.  I can't even include NE, because the Lions are pretty much hapless.


Tyrod and Heineke were my two offseason QB2 hopefuls.

Any Miami concerns should be extinguished. Perhaps it really was the heat. If this team had serious flaws they would have played out today - instead we massacred a team. NFL teams don’t typically beat teams like that.
 

Bills are the apex #1 and all of the Super Bowl hype was legit, buckle up 

 

There are still some pretty obvious issues, but nothing that can't be overcome. The most concerning ones that could derail us against good teams are:

 

1. Injuries - This is the big "DUH" in the room. Defense has been getting battered. Despite only netting 3 points, a rookie QB was able to move the ball pretty consistently for large chunks of the game (and even pick on Elam repeatedly)

2. Run Game - A lingering concern that I see as primarily a run-blocking issue, not a RB one. Singletary has shown he can find the open holes when they're there, it's just that he's often hit immediately after getting the ball.

3. Turnovers - Every team has them, but we can't keep putting ourselves in bad positions early & rely on the defense bailing us out.

 

Honorable Mention: Points off turnovers - We had a chance to take a pretty commanding 2 score lead early, then went backwards, got a FG blocked, & walked away with 0 points. This isn't the first time the offense has done nothing after a turnover either. This could be a deciding factor against better teams.

Such a bang bang play. Hamlin was going into his tackling motion at almost the exact time Pickett went into his slide motion. Good non call. Plus, he didn’t come anywhere close to hitting Pickett’s head.

We win 38-3 and this is your take-away?
