Re: What Went Right & What Went Wrong

Was a little disappointed about how Isiah Foskey looked.

On his college tape, he jumped off the screen with his get off and ability to get to the QB.

I've just gone back and watched the snaps he was in for and he was really lackluster.

Not setting the edge on outside runs, played VERY slow, zero pass rush moves besides trying to get around the outside.

Hoping he can pick it up, but other guys really showed more than he did.

Not getting here early has its consequences. He's probably banking on his draft status. Still he is a ND grad I think. So he should be smart enough to pick things up quickly. I hope we don't have to utter the phrase "What The Foskey"!

Wrong- not much after the first stringers. Twenty four unanswered points. The backups missed a lot of tackles today and we gave up too many yards after first contact. Busted coverage giving up big plays. Haener threw his first interception.
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.

Winston was money. I’m sure there’s a few “we need to make Winston Qb1” threads as if there’s a controversy. FB will be full of the same calling anyone who disagrees racist.

We seriously lack depth at pretty much every position

Is this sarcasm? If so my detector is not working right now.

Trevor P aka Junk Yard Dawg looked solid too.

I like his controlled “nastiness” (if that makes any sense) 🧐.
