Plenty of good things from yesterday despite everything.
- Cooks. Yes, there is another thread on this. Not much more elaboration is needed, I will just say that he is on a fast track to becoming our #1 receiving weapon. - Offensive line. They were very good, all game long. Got plenty of push in the run game, made a clean pocket for Brees all day long. They looked like they picked up right where they left off last year. - Running backs. With all due respect to Darren Sproles, who I love, this running back rotation is going to be a lot more effective than what we've had in recent years. Mainly because you can't pigeonhole any of them. We have great balance at the position no matter which back is in. Take out the end around, we still ran it for 4.5 yards a carry. - Spreading the ball around. No forcing the ball to to Jimmy. Colston looks strong and faster than he has in a couple of years. We have better receiving options this year than last, even without Stills playing. - Special teams - Morstead was tremendous. Graham was solid. Kick and punt coverage teams were very, very good. Basically, everything except the defense was good. And even the defense was pretty solid in the first half. We would've beaten most teams in the league the way we played yesterday. We aren't going to play against an offense like the Falcons every week, in fact I think it's safe to say they are the toughest offense we'll see all year. |
