Pretty much this. On the good, Perry looks like he has potential. Seeing Thomas catch a pass was encouraging (I was nervous when I saw him slide for the catch). Didn’t notice big injuries except Miller. Liked Merriweather against their 3s. I’m still iffy on Haener…started shaky but rallied.

Bad… general run blocking; not a lot of holes. Not impressed with Blake G as he shanked one. Quite a few penalties in general.

Edit…I forgot about 2 takeaways! Didn’t get enough of those last year !

His rallying is his calling card at Fresno St. So he basically showed us with the scrubs that he can still do what he did in college but in the pros. Need a bigger sample size nonetheless.

And yes on the takeaways.

Gotta give him credit for his TD drive. Wonder what happened on the missed 2 point conversion try. Looked like a few things went wrong.

Probably just communication. First game for that C/QB combo and stuff will happen.

I think did allright for being his first game in an NFL environment. I wasn't expecting anything more from him than he showed but I do believe there is something to build on.
